Avocado part of 20 carbs?

Hi all... I know that you on the Induction period, you are only delegated 20 carbs a day. But in Atkin's book it says in addition you can have 10-20 olives... la la la la laaaaaaaa, half an avocado... etc.

I just want to verfy that that doesn't count toward my carb totals for the day?

Please someone help - it says that half an avocado is 7 carbs... I was looking forward to eating something else, but now I'm worried?

Any answers/help would be greatly appreciated! ;)

Hi Cali,

2 cups salad and 1 cup cooked vegies make very few carbs. So adding things like avocado and olives help make up the 20g.

So eat and enjoy!
