An apple a day......
Ruins my carb allowance.
I love apples. The nutritional value is undisputed. The low calories 80cal for a medium apple is attractive. The fibre is useful.
An apple a day keeps the Dr. away..... except the good Dr. Atkins.
I diligently abstained from all fruit during induction and in OWL I have added back Raspberries, Strawberries and Blackberries.
Yesterday I had an apple. 18 carbs in a few juicy munches.
My puzzle is ....is it better to have the carbs in a low calorie delivery vehicle (i.e. an apple). Are all carbs equal or are some more equal than others? If I had the apple instead of a piece of cheese? and my calorie intake went down how confused is my body?
I need a teacher to give my apple to, who can tell me whether I am embarking on a slippery slope.
Before you ask no it did not turn pink..Dammit
