BUt I'm not giving up bc I love muffin type stuff. Ordered CArbquick but haven't tried it yet. Any recommendations? Hopefully, it makes a difference. I have the recipes here about doign egg bacon version (the one I tried) or Sf syrop (I ordered that too - need to try it).


Carbquik is evil stuff and I'd never use it!! Here is a recipe for flax meal bowl muffin:
1 egg
2 tbs flax meal
1/4 tsp baking powder
1 splenda
1/2 tsp s/f raspberry davinci syrup

mix well and place in a bowl, 2 1/2 minutes in the microwave and voila!! Muffin!! You can cetainly play with it to add your own favorites...I also tried a little applesauce and that was good too. I was supposed to put in melted 1 tsp. smart balance and did a few times, but I wanted to reduce the cals so I knocked it out.

OK...heres how I see this....
1-we are allowed 2-3 fruits a day...a fruit is a fruit and not a starch.
2-We are allowed 2-3 starch servings a day...starch= grain or starchy veggie.
3-I count s/f ice cream as part of my daily dairy allowance.
4-I am very careful about protein bars as many are just glorified candy bars so watch the sugar content in the ones you eat.

It looks like I'm suggesting that you use the food lists and learn them so that you will count your fruits as fruits and your starches as starch.

Hi giovanni!!

I hope you don't mind me asking but...why are you eating your veggies only with your dinner?
According to the Meal Plan Guide, we are supposed to have veggies at each meal and with protein at snacks.

Phase 2

Man I had the best breakfast this A.M. I made a soup.

Chicken stock
thyme
green onions
carrots
brocoflower
asperagus
milk
cheddar cheese
cook the veggies in the stock, whirl up a little with the immersion blender, add cheese and milk. Simmer.

I have to tell you, it tasted like such a naughty treat. The carrots and onion make it phase 2. I am going to have this again and again. Don't you just love the way you can eat on this plan!
