    ok, stupid chips-day 1 again...

    ok,

    so after my near nervous beak down lastnight i realized that i went from a low fat and low carb diet over the last 2 weeks which resulted in a 10# WL, to the atkins induction way too fast!! I just wasnt mentally ready for it even though i thought i was.
    so, today is day one of my induction..i am ready, i have a game plan..going out after work to buy fatty foods...i had BACON for breakfast on saturday..sweeeeet bacon only 3 pieces, but it was glorious!!! im on chapter 8 of the book. found a new buddy on this site so im looking forward to the real induction now that i have the ketchup chip craving out of my system. i had eaten a couple of mock danish over the weekend trying to curb the sweet tooth because of TOM creeping up on me, but i realize I can't do that. I've got a new buddy on this board who is the same weight, so we can challenge eachother, and do this together!! looking forward to getting to know her. so...day one...here i come!!!!

            Tracy, in DANDR 1992, the Induction chapter is Chapter 8 (I believe). So maybe J. only wanted to make sure you are reading the 2002 edition, not the 1992 one?

                    Why do you need to make mayonnaise?

                            Good for you!

                            so i can make the atkins low carb mayo.
                            The carb count for the store-bought mayo and the homemade one is pretty much the same. Mayo is (should be) naturally low carb.

                            I make my own mayo too. I only use the store-bought kind in recipes, where it "behaves" better.

                            Why do you need to make mayonnaise?
                            I don't know why Tracy chose to make mayo instead of using the store-bought kind (I think this is the question)... but I prefer homemade mayo mainly because of its taste.
