Key lime juice
« on: September 30, 2012, 04:06:31 AM »
OK, so things are still going well I'm down from 266 to 248 and from pant size 44 to a 40, it feels great but I am sorta wondering about the Nellie and Joe's Key west Key Lime Juice that I put in my unsweetened Iced tea. The label reads no carbs but that is for 1tsp I use about 2tbls in my 44oz cup. It is 100% natural juice no sugar. My issue is that natural limes raw fresh fruit have several carbs per oz and I have a hard time believing that this doesn't. Any help on clearing this up would be great.  Thanks

James

Hi James, count 1 carb per tablespoon  ;) Soon you'll be a 38....then a 36.....then a 34!

@ Doug...  wow, hidden again I drink 4 or 5 of these big glasses of water or unsweetened ice tea a day with about 2 tbls of the juice in it... oops that would be about 8 to 10 carbs I wasn't counting, I can probably cut those out real easy. @ Umpa....I love it too best natural lime juice out there, but I may have to ease up on it just a little or cut it out for a while deceptive when the label says 0 carbs... thanks guys I appreciate it.

Hooray, James!... Kudos on a wonderful start!!! :) :) :)

After you fine tune your menu and get rid of those unintended carbs, your progress should speed up even more!

And you'll probably find 1 tsp give you enough flavor.
