Thanks for the replies!


Perhaps I misunderstood. During induction, I was under the impression that 12-15 grams per day must come from the foundation vegetables, not cheese, nuts, or other sources. I just double checked the acceptable foods list and that's what it says.



Atkins Acceptable foods list

"Aim for 12-15 grams of net carbs from vegetables per day"

Does it matter if I do not get 12-15 carbs per day from the foundation vegetables list?

Should I only worry about staying around 20 grams per day, no matter the source?

I realize I should try to eat healthy and get as many vegetables as possible.

Thanks for all the help!!
