half and half

[bythree]

My husband and I just started Atkins yesterday and this morning he had to have coffee so I gave him decaf with heavy cream and slenda but he doesn't like the cream. I notice the half and half has less carbs than heavy cream and that's what he wants to do. Is that OK on Induction?

Half and half is not allowed on induction. Sorry.

I think so less than one carb per tablespoon and I believe Dr A allowed 3 tablespoons per day of cream either heavy or light.

Dr. A said heavy cream. I don't like heavy cream either so what I did was water it down. Sounds simplistic, but it works!

He won't know the difference if he doesn't see ya do it Buy a pint of half and half..dump it out and pour the heavy cream in it with 1/3 of it water. Shake the bejeebers out of it and put that in his coffee.

Yeah. Yeah. I know its sneaky...but what he doesn't know won't hurt him and it'll help his waist line
