Ladies and Gentlemen,
Please, Please, please. Don't be afraid to eat Legumes. You need those good carbs to keep you going.
I've Susan suggest so many times to eat 1/2 cup of veggies with breakfast, and 2 cups at dinner and lunch. If you can add legumes, this would a great idea. Dr. A is all over those things!
I was a big black bean, Lima Bean, and Kidney bean gal on phase 1.
Ok. I'm done. lol

I have been mostly getting my veggies in with salads or cucumber slices or green pepper strips or steamed broccoli.
Sorry!!!!

Heck as long as your veggies are getting eaten, you're fine! I was reading people's menues and wondering where their veggies are! Then, when you tell them to eat beans, they scratch their head and ask why seeing as though their are so many carbs!
Hey, try this, if you ever get adventurous.
Black beans, garlic, onion, pepper. Blend together. Add alittle sour cream if you want it creamy. Add some salsa and some toasted whole wheat pita chips or use as a spread for a chicken roll up :)

Thanks for the advice, Ria!!!

Thans, Ria.
Just filled my crock pot with turkey chili with 3x the amount of a variety of beans!
