Vegetables on SS+

[Emma1904]

Think I may be eating to much veg and salad on SS+. how's much do other people have? Do you do it in grams or anything?

I found little 80g packs of broccoli in M&S but I think that's too much! Do people have just one floret or two????

Argggggh I don't know what to do!!! Help! Have only just got my head back into CD and don't want to ruin it!

I eat far more veg than they state in the book. My CDC said to buy smaller plates (a large side plate would do) and have your protein then fill the rest of the plate with veg if you want. To be fair, it's only veg and its not going to make much of a difference at all.
