  • Anyone else in Portugal?

    I'm sure I'm not the only one!

    I'd love to chat and share ideas with anyone...

    Hello!

      It looks like it's just us two, for now!

      I moved here just a few months ago to a small village near Castelo Branco. It seems very easy to follow Atkins here - there is so much fresh fruit and vegetables, and the meat is very good, and fairly cheap. Chorico and cabbage has become a family favourite! Everybody here seems to live much 'closer to nature' and eat 'real' food instead of the high-carb meals that people in the UK seem to prefer. Everybody in the village grows most of their own food, and we have managed to grow a few beans and cabbages. No fruit for us this summer though, it was too dry and all the fruit dried up and fell off the trees before we arrived.

      I haven't risked the snails yet...

          Oh so glad you are liking it here!
          Yes it is easy following atkins here. I kind of fell of wagon this last two weeks, that's why I haven't been around much, but I'm back on board.

          You should try the fish also, it is very good. We seem to cover all Atkins staples, isn't it?
