A carb-competitor is protein. Right? Well, this morning after I read the responses, I had a spoon full of peanut butter. I had the usual bowl of SBD cereal and one cup of milk plus one cup of coffee. I might want to cut out the coffee and drink tomato juice or the vegie drink that is SBD legal. Right?

There's no need to cut out your coffee if you don't want to. The main reason some of us drink tomato juice or V8 is that it is an easy way to get a serving of veggies in. Most mornings I have coffee as well as V8 with my breakfast.


Carb competitors are not proteins. They are foods (fiber, fats, and acidic foods) that will aid is slowing digestion. Take a look at this:

Hi Fanci,


Protien is one of the four carb competitors.
