Atkins and Low Carb Weight Loss
Friday and Weekend carbs
busy busy busy... so it is everyone else - I assume.
Life in general.
I do try and work hard to maintain reasonable low carb eating plan. As much as I can.
Though there are days that I would rather have a cupcake. But the scare of RH stops me, more than it does not. I get reaction from stupid bread crust. Why would I eat a cupcake. That's like " taking a hammer and hitting myself in a head. Though hammer may hurt less... lol...
But I am tired of meat and meat and fish.
As I developed allergy to any dairy and Whey proteins (yes - even isolate) I no longer can consume 2 large shakes... (my sinuses get blocked and I lose my voice...due to the sinus discharge). Even Allegra does not help much.
so eats is very plain for me :
coffee + almond milk
meat + veggies
same
some eggs + veggies
fish + veggies...
and so on... fun fun fun...
same will be for the weekend.. life is great.. life is great.... life is great...
BTW: I do not tolerate soy or soy proteins. so the only thing I will try to to get some egg-white proteins...or some veggie type proteins.. but so far anything I tried was

I've got similar issues with whey (asthma), soy (thyroid) and vegetable (just plain nasty) proteins. For the last couple years I've used egg protein. I startd with JayRobb but I like Healthy N' Fit Nutritionals better. Both are at Vitamin Shoppe.
I mix shakes a pint per serving bcause it tastes less like protein this way. An oz of egg ptotein powder to 8oz almond milk & 8oz water plus a drink mix single gives me a fruity taste without the fruity carbs (like wylers orange for a creamsicle flavor).
I only buy vanilla once I realized I can mak it taste like nearly anything I want. Unsweetened cocoa and instant coffee work well. The only down side is its not for protein coffee. You have to mix it room temp then temper it with the coffee just like you would temper eggs in some recipes. I'm not that good with complicated cooking.

I put a place holder in for dinner tonight plus I need one mre glass of water for my 80 oz. One thing for certain, it will include zero carbs. I managed to go over induction level by 3g through missing a protein bar. Otherwise, its all good.

Egg white protein can gets tough when cooked like a merengue. I'm no baker so I don't know the solution.
You may need to disolve it first to "temper" it (for lack of a better word) for baked goods as you would temper it for protein coffee. I'm still working on this.
I've heard that adding fat such as melted smart balance light omega 3 spread; or adding a fat substitute like a little disolved konjac flour (aka glouccoman powder) may soften it in baked goods.

Good net carbs, good protein. The high total carbs is because I had too many protein bars. That's also why the protein is up. Naughty me. Atkins bars are not meals.

I also have developed an intolerance to whey protein. Also possibly Splenda (jury still out) and seem to be having major fat malabsorption issues. As of today, down for 150 grams of protein, 45 grams of fat, and 25 grams carbs (all kinds).
Limiting.
Today it's going to be eggs, low fat cheese, nonfat cottage cheese, beef and turkey jerky. Could always be worse!
