Hey everyone.
I've been L'cing for a while and during that time I haven' eaten anything that's really high in carbs but the prob is that I eat too many of the 'legal' foods. Like nuts, I find it impossible to not snack on them if they're there and instead of having like 1 oz I end up having half the pack! I've just stopped having them at all !!!
My main prob is snacking when I'm at home. I'm fine when I go out, I can resist any bad foods and eat low carb but when I'm at home I get bored and find myself pigging out on stuff lik nuts and cheese!
Does anyone have any advice for these situations??
I'd love to hear from anyone! Thanks!! :)

Hey Adreana...

The best way I've found to keep from over-snacking on nuts and berries and seeds and the like is to "pre-package" them. Get little ziploc baggies or something similar and measure out about one- or two-servings. Then, just limit yourself to that. In fact, you'll notice that if you stick pretty closely to induction, your cravings for snacks should be relatively low and a little nibble on some nuts or something will be perfect.

And always, it helps to write to the forum... there's always someone out there in your same shoes...
