carb content question
Hey there guys, just a few questions.
1. The P.L.A.N automatically adds a carb content for eggs (which I do know that they have), but, on the Atkins diet, Dr. Atkins specifies that you can eat unlimited eggs, counting the carbs of vegetables and salads (for the induction period). So, should I omit the carbs that the P.L.A.N adds for eggs and other "atkins unlimited" foods, when looking at my daily totals? (I eat a lot of eggs, so, my veg count would have to be substantially lower).
2. When I add broccoli (frozen, raw, cooked, no salt) it says 5g of carbs per .5 cup. The bags of broccoli I've bought lately, however, say 5g per cup. I have no problem adding my own custom food to match the nutritional content on my purchased stuff, but, could anyone (for curiosity's sake) account for this difference?
