    Hi, I'm new and I need some tips

    So i started the diet and lost 12 lbs in 2 week but then i slipped. I just started back up again but I was wondering if some of you veterans could lay some clear cut guidelines for me like which sources of fiber are acceptable. Also i was wondering if this was too good to be true:

    Kellogg's All-Bran Pink Lemonade Powder Fiber Drink Mix, 8-Count Boxes (Pack of 6): Amazon.com: Grocery

    Thanks in advance for all the help!

      We do get plenty fibre on the diet from veggies. Are you wondering about fibre because of constipation

      For me veggies, water and exercise have been sufficient to be regular.
      Atkins suggests wheat bran, flax seeds or psyllum husks to help with constipation problems if veggies are not adequate.

      I don't know about that drink. Very expensive stuff. It also contains milk and soy products which we are not allowed to have on induction.

          I agree with Liv on the ingredients. (though the price ain't bad - it's $23 for 6 8-count boxes (48 servings)).

              OK thanks. I was also wondering if you guys new if celery had a lot of carbs and if that drink has 2 Net carbs since it says "12 g carbs" and "10 g fiber"

                  1 stalk of celery = 0.8 net carbs.
