 Re: Flaxmeal Hot Cereal | |
This is the recipe I found around here: http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...-involved.html (Flax Cereal (No Pork Rinds Involved!)). But it's only allowed from OWL Rung 2 on, because it has whey protein.
In any case, during Induction, you only eat more than a tablespoon of flax meal per day if you are constipated. You can add more flax in OWL Rung 3, if you want. If you are constipated, you try two tablespoons and see if that "fix" the problem. If they don't, you add another tablespoon. The idea is not to use flax meal as a free food just because it's low in net carbs.
ETA: Re-reading what I wrote, I think that was a bit muddled. The recipe in the link above is allowed on OWL Rung 2 only if you are constipated. Otherwise the recipe is only "legal" for OWL Rung 3.

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!"
