Re: Hello I am new

Hi akys! Welcome to the board. You say you want to start atkins, have you read the book? It's an invaluable tool for those just starting out. Understanding the science behind it is a big part of this. If not, try reading around the INDUCTION FORUM. There is alot of information there to get you started!

Try Walmart Grocery - I buy "Plumrose" Sugarfree bacon there. Good luck!

Re: Hello I am new

Well Plumrose bacon has 'Dextrose' hidden in it. I made that mistake too.

The best place to find sugar free / nitrate free bacon is your local health food store. Be ready to get a 3rd mortgage or sell your youngest child though. (just kidding).

It is very expensive. It's best to purchase it and freeze it into servings you need.

Here are some other threads and links you may find help to get the wheel in motion. The intial step of moving that wheel is all you need, these links will keep to keep building up the momentum!

ARGH! How aggravating. Why don't they (the manufacturer) have to show that in their labeling? Thanks for the heads up and info.

Re: Hello I am new

Hi there. I'm new too (new to the Forum - not new to Atkins). I just wanted to say don't get down if you can't find the special products. Just focus on the protein you can find (just your common old fish, meat, chicken,eggs etc) then turn them into something spectacular. It's so funny - 'cos friends will be sitting around eating their takeaway pizza and you will walk in with your fragrant beef stirfry and suddenly people won't feel sorry for you 'cos you are on a "diet". In fact .. they will probably want to share your food. So hang in there. Turn your grub into an adventure at every meal - and you will find that you don't miss the special stuff you can't find. Best wishes to you.

Re: Hello I am new

Hi there akys! I'm Elsy. First of all welcome to ADBB. If you are determined to make this work for you read the book first then stick to this place. In my opinion, those are the 2 main ingredients.

I don't know if anyone has told you about FitDay yet, but if they haven't this is a great free tool that can help you keep count of everything you eat. Yes, including the meat(protein). If you're in induction, make sure you don't eat more then 30 % protein as your daily allowance.

Best wishes to you.
