Low Carb Diet (atkins)

Mercy

Hello lovely low carbers!

Ded chuffed people are putting stuff in their sigs, (I'm a bully not a nag, shykins - seems to work ) good to see how successful some of us have been! Yep, I mean you jpretty! Well done :j

Congrats to newish too, and all who have seen a move in the right direction :beer:

Daisy, simply supplements say up to 10 days for delivery. (they're coming from Guernsey) so don't give up hope. They've never let me down but have made me wait

Hi ethansmum! There's a note in my sig for a post full of recipe ideas if you fancy a browse.

hi ethansmum and welcome.. sorry i missed sying that last post duuuh

ok mercy i will gently nag u slap that will work lol

pilly the rules (as far as atkins are concerned) are approx 3oz hard cheese and 3 spoons of cream a day, some people are more sensitive to dairy then others so find they need to tweak that done the nearer they get to goal... we are all differnt and whilst some can have dairy, sweeteners or nuts there are others of us who cant so if u have problems with a stall its best to look at playing with one of these

Cheers Shykins. Am not consuming that much so can relax now!

Well, listened to Dr Johnson saying that it's only fructose that causes weight gain, other carbs are all OK - that's his hypothesis anyway. And typically I've just bought in a bottle of agave nectar which is 100% fructose! Was an interesting interview anyway.
He is, however, (like Loren "Paleo" Cordain) of the "high fat and protein is bad for you" school of thought. This is disconcerting as i have a tendancy to believe anyone who has the title "Dr" in front of their name, yet all they do is contradict one another! Leads to further confusion.........:rolleyes:

:beer: Thanks for the warm welcome!

Mercy those links are ever so helpful many thanks!!

Shykins I 'think' I may know you from another forum. When I first started low carbing- well over 3 years now- It was on a low carb forum? Was that you Probably not and I've just gone and embarrassed myself LOL!

Daisy- just stumbled on this Dr Eades blog page. Thought it may be applicable to your situation, though dunno if you'll find it helpful.

i also bought a bottle of agar nectar today as well and am now dead confused is it good for us low carbers or not?, i kinda find it hard to believe that a natural sugar like this wont put blood sugar levels through the roof as all other sugars do......

any thoughts anyone?

no loss for a few days now........ hmmmmm im on the brink of the next stone down and i always find them hard to get past so fingers x'd
