DoubleD,

Thanks very much for the clearly authoritative answer.

I was hoping the truth were otherwise, but it is what it is.

Guess I've got to learn to drink decaf with 1 tblspn of cream.

And, I've got to go back and adjust my spreadsheet of carb intake.

Ugh!

One more question, if you don't mind (and yes, I really did carefully read the entire book): I love cheese, such as Tomme de Savior, Drunken Cow, Boucheron. How would I definitively ID the carb count? Alternatively, how would you recommend estimating it? And, how restrictive should I be with these foods (during induction)?

Thanks very much!
