It really took me by surprise because so much of what I have read about low-carb says that saturated fats are great. But like you advise, I will ignore it and just follow the plan. I guess you only need to worry about fats if you are eating like 200g carbs at your RM....very possible but I wouldn't do it.

That steak dinner sounds delish! Enjoy!


Question: Do you think the Heller's CM vegetable list would be longer if they knew about or believed in the net carb theory?
