    Supper

    Hambuger Patty with about an ounce of cheese
    2 slice of tomatoes (2 carbs)
    2 cups of salad greens(3 or 4 carbs) with about 3 TBS of ceaser salad dressing

    I have to take a look at the Atkins book to get some recepies, but this ins't too bad for the first day, is it. Any help will be appreicated!


    I need to find some snacks to help me get thru the day.

    Hey there! No, not bad at all. Have you tried using Fitday.com to track your food intake? It's pretty helpful to make sure you're eating the correct number of carbs and that you're eating enough. I don't know your stats (height/weight/age), but you might want to try eating a little more. Don't deprive yourself, just eat until you're satisfied. The food choices look pretty good though. If you find you're having strong cravings for carbs or you're not losing, I would drop the coffee first!

      Your menu looks good Candoit! But, I'd spread the veggies more evenly throughout the day if possible, to avoid blood sugar spikes by having most of them together in one meal. Higgies is right... don't go hungry!
