Thanks for posting that link, Tril. It ' s very useful information. Especially the part about calculating what the actual hidden carb count is from any food label.

That ' s the way I ' ve always read it, now indubitably my Atkins books are a bit more out of date than some I see quoted here, but my whole understanding of atkins was that as long as you restrict the carbs, its hard to impossible for your body to create new fat.

This isn ' t to say you should eat 6, 000 calories a day, but I was always under the impression that finishing off that 24 oz porterhouse steak was no big deal, or chicken 4 burgers off the plate when no one was looking wasn ' t going to make an impact.

It ' s certainly more difficult for the body to create more body fat on a low carb diet, but not impossible. I think that ' s a misconception about Atkins.

Dr Atkins warned us to eat low carb food until we are pleasantly full, but not stuffed.

Your body will convert any excess energy ( calories ) into fat. The process for converting excess protein and fat from food into body fat consumes more energy, so you can eat more calories of low carb foods than high carb foods.

If you burn all the calories you take in by working out in the gym for three hours per day, it won ' t turn to fat, of course, because there wouldn ' t be any excess calories.

My version of the book talks a lot about learning what a normal serving of food is. 4 burgers ( even without the buns ) or a 24oz steak ( something less then that when you subtract out the bone ) is not normal.

Yes, you already posted that.

I ' m sure your mother is proud that you spend your days in Taipei in an internet cafe posting randomly around the world for 7 US dollars a week.

Now go market me some internet.... and some egg foo yung.

For the record, for people who think that possibly I ' m a bit brutish, even if they are trolling auto spamming little scam artists, I ' d like to post this.

I used to be a relay operator for MCI / Verizon, and this is the sort of thing we were required by law to facilitate. Eventually I walked out, scamming small business owners and old ladies out of their money to send to Africa and China was not what was in the job description when I started the job. I thought that I was going to be working with deaf people to make their lives more socially normal.

So my sympathy level for any foreign scam is next to nil.

Here ' s a good resource for carb counts:

http: / / www. carb - counter. org / veg / search / Broccoli / 1100

There are about 3 carbs in a cup of cooked broccoli.

I think ECC stands for effective carbohydrate count. Atkins calls it " net carbs ". It ' s the total carb minus the fiber carbs.

Here is what the Atkins website has for carb counts on broccoli:

Broccoli boiled ½ cup 1. 6 ( 3. 2 per cup )

Broccoli raw ½ cup 1. 0 ( 2. 0 per cup )

My DANDR book says 1. 7 for 1 / 2 cup ( 3. 4 per cup ) but it doesn ' t say raw or cooked.

My Atkins Eating For Life book says 0. 8 for 1 / 2 cup of raw flowerets ( 1. 6 per cup ) and 2. 2 for 1 / 2 cup ( 4. 4 per cup ) of frozen chopped and then steamed broccoli.

Take your pick! LOL

ah! so many to choose from.. can i be selfish and pick the one w / the lowest carb count ha ha.. i always eat mine steamed, which do you think would be the most appropriate choice of carb count. i typically use the 2. 2 / half cup or 4. 4 / cup and have been doing alright but i would LOVE to eat MORE broccoli [ / icon_surprised. gif] ) i probably could afford to to definitely get up to the 12 - 15 veggie carbs a day. broccoli is seem as a salad veggie correct?

I think it ' s on the " other veggie " list, but that doesn ' t really matter in the newest version of Atkins ( the website info ). They say, just stay within the 12 to 15 carbs from veggies per day in Induction. If you want it to all come from broccoli, you can.
