I just started the plan today, and am very excited!  Here's what I've eaten:

Breakfast - 3 HB eggs with 3 slices extra crispy cooked bacon

Snack-  2 salami sticks

Lunch - chicken salad (made with canned chicken, 1/2 baby bell pepper and mayo), 1 GG crispbread, and a small salad of lettuce, cukes and 2 Tbsp Ranch dressing

Dinner - 3 parmesan encrusted chicken strips with 1.5 oz baby bellas sauteed in garlic, crushed red pepper and fresh cracked pepper

Snack - 1 cup puerh chocolate flavored tea with a splash of heavy cream and 1 packet Sweetleaf

According to CalorieKing, I've had 23g carbs and 8g fiber, which brings my net to 15.  I absolutely loved everything I ate today and didn't feel deprived at all.  I think I'm gonna like this WOE!

Wow SweetMama parmesan encrusted chicken strips sound yummy!! I know what I'm making tomorrow 

[paulachappell]

Welcome SweetMama. Would love to know more about the chocolate tea! Where do you find it?

[SweetMama]

Sherripie - The chicken was fantastic! Tender, juicy and so flavorful. You will absolutely love it!

PaulaChappell - I read a review of the tea on a blog. Couldn't find it locally so I got it at Amazon. It was pricey for 1 box .. about $12 but its good.

It has a subtle cocoa with a nutmeg/cinnamon-like flavor. So its not something that would be the best replacement for the taste of chocolate. My son had a cup with me and he said it reminds him of pumpkin pie.

Forgot to add- the tea brand is Numi.
