Hi there.

Hi LVbelle,

Welcome to ADBB. I have a few suggestions on your menu:

- Check bacon (and nay meats) for added sugar or glaze.
- As the book says only half a small avocado can be consumed per day, as they are higher in carbs. Don't avoid them, but limit to half a day.
- Your dinner looks a little small - I would add in a cup of heavy veg like broccoli or zucchini to give you fibre an nutrients. Tomatos have higher carbs than these veggies swap things around a bit.
- I think you could do with eating more - don't foget your cream, cheeses and fats.
- I have no idea what Jennie O Turkey Paddies are - hopefully someone else can hlep,l but check all processed foods for fillers like breadcrumbs or added sugars and syprups.

Finally, though it is easy to eat the same each day to stay on track this can make you bored quickly and may led to cheating or giving up. There are lots of induction friendly foods to try - we are supposed to each a variety of colours, foods, veggies, meats, cheeses and seafood. If you can enjoy a range, you may as well and you will be more nutrients that way too.

Best of luck with this WOL

In my opinion, whatever makes it easiest for you is the way to go There is nothing wrong with eating the same (right) things everyday if that will keep you on track.

I try to eat a protein and a vegie at every meal. Both tomatos and advocados are recommended limited quantities. I save advocados for when I have a strong craving (mine is ice cream). Since they are high in fat and calories, they really help a craving. I think maybe if you added a salad to either lunch or dinner you would be doing just fine.

I would say eat until you are full...not stuffed.. The first 2 weeks is not the week to worry about if you are eating too much..its to get all the junk out of your body
