Will eating things like cucumber and carrots take you out of ketosis?? I had a quorn sald one day last week and my CDC said that would have but I didn't know if it was the quorn or the salad ??

Fairly certain it's the quorn, have seen another thread somewhere saying that quorn has carbs in it.

carrots have quite a lot of natural sugar in them, which is a carbohydrate. That's why they're not on any of the permitted veg list for 810 / 1000 in the CD book. Same with tomatoes.

 

great things

It depends on what quorn you ate. The sliced 'meat' style quorn e.g. Ham one contains sugar. However the other types, mince and lumps do not contain sugar. Always read the pack ingredients first. If hungry probably best to do cottage cheese with your salad.
