CD Shakes

[dietwizzard]

Hi,

Does anyone actually know how many Carbohydrates are in your 3 shakes a day?

I do know CD is a VLCD but i would also like to know how many Carbs are in them.
I could ask my counsellor but i've only met her once and dont want to barge her with too many questions on my first week.

Thanks

It is about 14g/pack..so that equates to 42g

Thanks zreena,

42g is a little high, when i did Atkins i kept to under 20g per day, i could've maintained on Atkins at 42g but not lost, but then again this is also a low calorie diet so mabye it evens itself out.

How did you find the atkins?? I did it but got a bit bored with eating the same things!! Omlettes and bacon and eggs.

Did you find different things to eat?

Hi there - the reason why CD contains carbs is so that you enter a MILD state of ketosis, not a dangerous one. That way your body burns off the fat safely and efficiently without damaging your health.
Hope that helps
