Well, I have added:

Nature's Own Wheat and Fiber low carb bread - no more than 1 slice per day
Kidney and Great Northern beans - no more than 1/2 cup per day (I actually ate chili w/beans!)
Nuts and nut butters - no more than 1 Tbs butter or .75 oz. nuts per day (like a PBJ half sandwich using 1 Tbs chunky peanut butter and 1 Tbs. SF strawberry jam)
Lots of green veggies like brocolli, cabbage, brussels sprouts, greens and spinach (rinse the salt off if you use canned)

I'm thinking of adding a little fruit and/or oatmeal in the mornings. Not more than 10 net grams of carbs for the meal. That will add on about 6g fiber for the day on top of the other stuff. I'm still going to keep my net carbs from going over 40/day.

I'm trying to get my fiber count to 20g or more every day so I also take a FiberChoice SF fiber supplement every day and some calcium. There is research that claims high calcium also accelerates weight loss.

So far, so good!
