From Laura Dolson, your Guide to Low Carb Diets
A very common myth about low-carb diets is that we don't eat vegetables or fruits. Of course, we know that nothing could be further from the truth, particularly when it comes to the veggies. Did you know that when people start on a low-carb diet, they usually double, or even triple, the amount of vegetables they eat? This is because vegetables often replace starchy foods. This week, we're concentrating on wise choices when it comes to getting our vegetables and fruits. Have a healthy week - Laura

Low-Carb Vegetables
This list is roughly from the lowest to the highest in carbs. Most are linked to carb profiles including carb and fiber counts, calories, and recipes. I'm in the process of adding more of these links - four have been added in the last few days.

Low-Carb Fruit List
Most people can include fruit as part of a healthy low-carb diet. The trick is to choose the ones which are lowest in sugar (like berries) and avoid the high-sugar ones (like bananas and dates). Again, I link to pages about each fruit with carb counts, recipes, glycemic index, etc.
