Topic: RE: Getting started? Carb detox?
i started by going to atkins.com and signed up for the free getting started gift. Two booklets one on how to start the other a meal plan/menu type booklet. There is great info on the site too. The best thing about all of this for me is for the first time in my life i'm not starving all the time. I'm so glad i started doing this. Good luck, its really not hard at all, at least for me :o) Jeani

Topic: RE: Cereal?
Exercise real caution when combining carbohydrates and fat -- It seems to be a serious flab-bomb for a lot of low-carbers! Combining high-fat cream with a cereal is potentially problematic.
However, when I DO have cereal, it's HOT -- usually oat bran, amended with wheat germ, ground flax, and unsweetened soy protein. This is a breakfast that lasts .... really holds me all day.
Anyway, that's what I do.

Topic: RE: Getting started? Carb detox?
Hala referenced the Five Day Pouch Test, which is effective for some who need to smack themselves back into basics --
Personally, my best strategy is to spend three days pretty much gorging on high-fat, high-protein foods, and keeping my carbohydrates REALLY REALLY low. Read up on the "getting started" links from the stickied threads, for information and motivation.
If you mess up with a mouthful, a meal, or a day -- what's really great is that you can get yourself right-started all over again with the very next bite. This is a very, VERY forgiving way of eating!

Chocolate protein drinks, especially with rasberry sf syurp lately. Chocolate calcium chews. Occasionally real chocolate but that is maybe 1x a month.
