Anything wrong with that? | You do not have to add 5 net carbs with every rung. The exception is exactly Rung 3, because there we only add 1 oz of nuts (or 1/2 oz for cashews), which is less than 5 net carbs. Did you eat your veggies?

I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.
Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"
