So, if I understand correctly when you say nothing in your meal can be over 4, means that you can have multiple items, as long as they individually stay under 4??? That doesn't sound right.....I must be picking you up wrong????

They have in the back of the CAD book, recipes for low carb CM meals like french toast and waffles....so if each waffle were 2 carbs, and you used Davinci syrup with 0 carbs....you could have that as a meal??? ( or only as long as you had only 2, to equal 4 carbs for the whole meal????)
I am sorry to be so confusing, I guess I am not asking this very clearly....does anyone understand what I am getting at???
I just started reading the CAD book today, and couldn't put it down!!! I have gotten through 1/2 of it and am very psyched about switching from Atkins!! This is what I have been looking for!!! If it works, I really think that I could stick to this for life without feeling deprived!!!!
Thanks in advance for your help!!
