Good Friday = no meat?

Again, I'm not sure how this will evolve, but I have to figure out a way to effectively title my posts! I can't name them all "carb consumption for today" now can I?

Well, last night I finished up by grilling a nice skirt-steak for dinner, and had a nice serving of romaine salad with some Newman's Own Olive Oil & Vinegar dressing.

Grams of Carbs for my dinner (approx.)

• Skirt Steak 0g
• Salad 5g
• Dressing 2g

Now, the salad has 3g per serving which is 2 cups. I think I had more than 2 cups of salad, so I put 5g above. I thought salad was better, so I'll have to measure it from now on!

The dressing has 1g per serving which is 2 tablespoons. I'll have to measure that too! So, my salad and dressing was between 7g and 10g of carbs! Woah! If I am more careful, I can have a salad and reduce the carbs from the 10g or so I had to 4-5g.

I also had 2 ice-pops called "Bomb-Pops" which seem to have 4g of carbs each. :-( I was desperate, really! +8g for the day.

So, I'm estimating I had roughly 25g of carbs yesterday, which isn't bad, but I can still do better by being more careful. The goal is to keep it under 20g per day, at least in the beginning.
