How many cubes of cheddar cheese equal a slice? I am looking it up and can’t find it anywhere.
I recall reading that it was 30g (approx 100 cal)
Thank you the very illustrative pictures and the easy to read text.
I think the illustration text for crackers should be changed from 3 to 5 to avoid confusion 🙂
What can you eat instead of grapefruit for breakfast for day one?
1/2 teaspoon of baking soda in a glass of water is the sub for grapefruit. the purpose of the grapefruit is related to increasing blood pH to a less fat friendly level. not sure how long this lasts however, and its only done on day 1. grapefruit has an effect on the metabolism of certain medications so its definitely a powerful food
does anyone know if the ice cream is included just as a treat so one does not feel deprived or if there is another reason? it seems like a lot of sugar and calories to have, vs eating a large chicken breast or other green veg instead, or even a fruit….
