Ok, so on monday i ordered various things from the lowcarb megastore - mainly for people on atkins who need to stay in ketosis (like us) but want something different. I ordered that carb-free and calorie-free noodle stuff, anyway, it comes in bags already in water so im guessing i just have to heat it in the bad or strain it then heat it up in chicken stock or something. The writing on it is in japanese and unfortunately am not too good at deciphering that particular language (haha!) so cant tell u guys the particulars on nutritional info. Also ordered some v low carb pasta - now, this is confusing me a bit cos on the box it says there is only 5g of digestible carbs per serving. However, on the nutritional info, it says there are 42g of carbs per serving?! Underneath, it says "Carb Facts - Total carbs 42, Protected carbs 37, so net carbs = 5". What are protected carbs? Do they just somehow pass straight through yr bod??
Anyway, as well as the noodles and pasta, i ordered this carb free (just got protein in) breakfast thickener that apparently u just add hot water to and it comes out like a hot breakfast cereal. Hmm, there was me expecting prridge! Well, it was the foulest smelling, nastiest tasting gloop ever! Yuck yuck yuck!
Also ordered some sugar free sweets that apparently dont take u out of ketosis (?). Well, must have had half a packet of the teddies, and half of the gummies. Since then i have been in absolute agony -my stomach is the size a balloon (letting out as much wind, then filling itself back up again). Its sooo sore! So, wishing id never eaten them cos whatever is in them has NOT agreed with me!
So far, my 20quid order has been a waste of money so until i try these noodles, dont go rushing off to buy them cos they might be just as nasty!!
PS I am doing AAM so was just trying to find something different i could have! Ive given up and restartin SS!
