Hey girl, I am doing the Atkins but a modified version. Basically I eat protein, and greens. It works. I have done it in the past and lost 30 lbs in about 3 months. I had a baby so, here I am again.

Example:
Breakfast: Eggs and bacon or sausage OR Slimfast Low Carb Shake.
Lunch Salad with protein and REAL dressing Italian or Ranch has less carbs.
Dinner: Protein, Green Beans or Broccolli and a Salad

Snacks: Cheese, Queen olives, Jerky, etc..
Dessert: Russell Stovers makes sugar free candy like truffles etc. to DIE for. Just be careful with how many you eat. I would just eat like 2 or 3. Sugar alcohols can upset your tummy.
When looking at NET carbs you take total carbs-fiber-sugar alcohol (if any)= total net carbs.
I have lowered my carbs to less than 20 grams a day.

Trust me, you will feel great and it is so much better than the steak and bacon all the time.

If you have any questions, feel free to email me.
