I looked in the book (the new one) at the sample induction menus. Those menus dont add up to 20 grams carbs.
So I'm thinking maybe you dont subtract fiber in induction? But the book clearly says to subtract fiber when "doing atkins".
If I add more carbs to get 20 (while subtracting fiber) then that is about quadruple the amount of food in the sample menus.
I am so confused. And another thing....the little handy carb counter that comes in the front of the book- the fiber isnt subtracted there. This card is removable to take with you. If you were suppossed to subtract fiber, wouldnt that be listed on that card?

I know some subtract fiber and some dont. I want to go by the book(if I ever figure out what that is.) Is it true that in the first book, you didnt subtract fiber? Was it still 20 grams in induction?




This is a copy of a typical day on induction. I calculated my carbs for the day. In the book, it says to have 20 carbs. I only have 8.3!
What did I do wrong today? I think my menu looks ok....
I feel energetic and am not hungry. I am happy with this amount of food.

Breakfast:
3 eggs
3 slices bacon

Lunch:
rotisserie chicken
2 cups romaine
2 tbsp caesar dressing

Snacks:
string cheese
deviled eggs

Dinner:
steak
2 cups romaine(oil and vinegar)
brocolli, 1 cup

Please help!
(btw, I did count carbs in eggs, dressing, and cheese)
I used the carb counts in the book, not fitday
