Atkins and Low Carb Weight Loss
Beef - it is what's for dinner...
I just ate 14 oz of roast beef. "just" mean 3 hrs ago... . And I am still full. Mind you - I have not have anything with it. Just beef. And it took me 1 hr to eat it. But - I loved it.
So next time when you ask yourself "what's for dinner"? Think beef.
As long as you can tolerate it. It will keep you full for hours. Will provide the proteins and iron. And - if it is done right - it taste wonderful... (BTW - I didn't cook mine, I bought Hormel RTE Beef roast in natural sauce... - it was on sale... )

I followed you here from BOTT. I just recently started to eat really low carb to curb the appetite a little. I miss fruits and dairy but for a while this will be ok. I am so exhausted from being hungry all the time. For me just the carbs in healthy carbs drives my hunger. Maybe this group will give me some insight into how to eat low carb. Even right after surgery in the hospital my doctor had me eating mashed potatoes, pureed carrots and pureed chicken. We drank carnation sugar free (but still a lot of carbs) instant breakfast in milk also containing those healthy carbs. I do find that string cheese wrapped in deli beef keeps me from getting hungry for several hours.
Just me
That applies to all starchy carbs for me - the carbs in green veggies do not do that.
Also - some fruits are "safe" for me.
Welcome to this group.
