Carbs? Net Carbs?
VSG on 06/26/12
I may do the net thing after my month of refeeding, since I think it'd be easier to adapt to as a long term way of eating.
For now I want to be in the very best condition for my surgery, so I'll do it the strict way. I'll just keep reminding myself that it's only a week.

Carbs can be especially troublesome during weight loss. They are trigger foods for a lot of people. Also, as Elina said, some fiber carbs do metabolize. That means that you will be undercounting your carbs.
The whole net carbs thing is Enron accounting for your weight loss. Weight loss I not about planning for h rest of your life, it's about maximizing the honeymoon period and losing as much as you can while all the cards are stacked in your favor. It's the time where you work on changing your relationship with food and yourself.
The transition to maintenance is where you use those new tools to manage the rest of your life. Don't look for excuses now to indulge more. Those muffins don't need to pass your lips period, not just if you get your protein in.

Turkey muffins? Recipe please? Beef makes me deathly ill, so I use ground turkey a lot and love it.
