Hi there-
I've been eating Atkins WOL for almost 2 months. I really like it. I haven't weighed myself in the last week, but my clothes are looser and I am down in weight a little. I don't have a lot to loose so I know it will take longer. I found out I am allergic to eggs so I have to avoid those for a minimum of 6 months. I also don't do well with dairy. I can handle a little, but it's best if I avoid it when I can. I have moved to rung 3, but I don't digest nuts well and I tend to eat too many so I am trying to avoid those too. I had some homemade almond butter (almonds and coconut oil) today on celery, but that's about it.
Anyway, since I am so restricted in my menu (no eggs, almost no dairy, and little nuts/seeds) and I have only about 7-9 lbs left to lose, should I be moving to maintenance or just keep going up the rungs? I don't plan to add wheats/grains back in ever (except for a rare treat like a holiday or something).
I actually prefer just eating meats and veggies and just eating more kinds of veggies, but it would be nice to have corn or berries or an apple once in awhile. I don't plan to add in fruits or high carb veggies until after my vacation (in 25 days) but I'm just curious.
What do you recommend? Thanks for your help.
