Hi, please can anyone help I'm a bit confused, I started the low carb diet today and have been trying to take in all that I have read, but still not quite sure , I have read that I can eat freely veg & salad that grows above ground but it is shown with a carb value, so do I need to count this when working out my daily amount?
Many thanks
 
You need to count it but it is very low so eating freely is OK. This is where your daily carb allowance should be coming from. You will be getting a bit of carb from dairy as well and nuts if you are eating these things.
