3 carbs and 2.5 carbs per can, respectively. After awhile they will seem normal, just like never eating pasta or bread.

Your doctor will complain but you can also drink mixed drinks with carb-free mixers and distilled spirits like vodka and bourbon; alcohol has calories but it isn't processed like carbohydrates and does not make your blood sugar go up. (This can be easily verified by doing a DIY test with a glucose meter in case you're dubious.) Most wines are also OK, but it's too bad US vintners don't label their wines for sugar content like the Canadians do.

Good luck with the diet, you may be amazed at how much your health improves.
