Hi everyone. My name is Danielle and I am new here. I started the
Atkins diet two weeks ago and I have lost 10 pounds. I just finished
reading the New Diet Revolutiona and have picked through Atkins for
Life and a few recipe books. I am very unclear about one thing and
hopefully someone can answer this for me... In the New Diet Revolution
there is a list of "free' foods. Does this just mean that they are carb
free or does it mean that you dont have to count the carbs that are in
them? For example... eggs are listed as a free food yet my eggs are 1
carb per each egg. This can make a difference for me since I will be
doing the induction period for more than two weeks. Im barely going
over ten carbs a day now because I am not hungry but in the event that
I have a day where I want to eat more I want to make sure that I am
counting correctly. I am also up for any advice!
Thanks!
Danielle
