Hi ya'll! I started low carbs yesterday morning (almost two days in) and so far so good. I was eating a lot of fruit and veggies (salads) before I started, so I just cut back on the fruits and re-visted how many carbs were in the veggies so that I can stick to around 20 net grams a day with seafood and chicken. I am still reading about 'phase 1' and have yet a lot to learn. What do you think of the Atkins low carb bars and shakes?

seaurchin, I would avoid processed extra when you can. I know they're easy and convenient, but our bodies reallllllyyyyy get happy with real foods and not food imitations You do what's best for you.


I'm LOVING low carb. I can't believe how much better I feel. I went through 2 days of funky, then all has been well since! Love it love it love it! And I know the first bit was a whoosh of water weight leaving but I've had steady loss nearly everyday since I've began, unreal!
