Morning Sue -
Cream is better than milk, and salad is better than protein shakes. And listen to Nat, the higher the fat content the better. Devonshire clotted cream is totally legal The stuff I get here is labelled as 47% mf, and I smear it on sugar free jello and legal cheesecakes.
On a visit to England I discovered cream. What we have here isn't cream - it's thick milk. What you have THERE is CREAM. Even your milk is CREAM. My dh and I stopped for a coffee in Lymington at a posh little cafe where the put a small pitcher on the table and I swear, I sipped the coffee and then drank all the cream. When he saw that, my dh took me right out to a bakery where he bought me a small tub of the clotted cream and some plain biscuits to dip into it. I was ready to rip up my return plane tickets.
On the 2 week induction period it's better to eat wholesome foods from the farm. Once past that point, you can add low carb manufactured products.
Be careful about high-protein drinks tho - I've found they often have high carb counts, ... unless they specifically advertise themselves as low carb - read all your food labels.
