olives??

[Trace1981]

I've just had my new samples delivered today, with an updated list of allowed veg, it has olives on it? Has anyone had these in the past?

Please can you type out the new list?

I am dying to know what is on it !!

 

[Poepsie]

Ooh that would be great news but probably only a tiny amount? xx

It says
Each day you may also have (on all plans)
150ml Skimmed Milk (can be used in tea, coffee, porridge, shakes or drank on its own)

They seem to have updated the list on the website too, and clarified the position with the milk:

heaven! I love black olives, went through massive jars of them when pregnant. Just off to find a jar now

 

[Trace1981]

Being fairly new to olive eating, do they only come in oil?

Vanilla caramel??

Beansprouts!!!! Yey!

 

[Elemental]

I am confused why only white cabbage is allowed, its minging!! Savoy is very low carb tho

seems odd they aren't restricting the amount of olives - they're over 100cals per 100g.............. a few in a salad would be good tho!!

What's vanilla caramel moosh?

I hate hate hate olives unfortunately. I'm a bit surprised they're on the list as I thought them high in calories (for 200g anyway). I suppose you should only have a few maybe?

 

[MiniMoosh]

On that updated list, it has crispy vanilla, vanilla, caramel and ....vanilla caramel!

I just use the list as a guide personally. My OCD kicks in and I look up the calories / carbs in the veggies I have anyway. If it's Atkins friendly then I have them. I can't envisage eating 1 olive let alone 200g but I suppose someone who loves olives might devour 200g in 1 day and that would be 300 odd calories.

Oh good spot moosh! Now that sounds nice!
