Newbie here - 1st day - how does my menu sound?

[nikkikb]

Hi all,

I decided to start Atkins after my weight has been steadily increasing since I lost 4 stone in 2008 on a low cal plan. I am pretty much back where I started and lwo cal isn't working for me anymore. So today I have had:-

B: 1 bratwurst (0.5carb) and 1 fried egg
L: 2 cups iceberg lettuce with chicken, bacon and mayo
D: Sirloin steak with cabbage cooked in a cream sauce
S: Boiled egg and slice of cheddar

Does that sound ok?

Will put in my stats when I have figured out how!

Nikki

Thanks everyone

I am feeling a bit hungry this afternoon but lunch for me is always at midday and dinner at 8 so need to make sure I have snack food at hand when hunger sets in at 4pm. Any good ideas for snacks on induction?

Microwaved crispy cheese is a popular one here.... You could also stock up on babybel and pepperamis - depends if you want something savoury. Sweet, sugar free jelly is good

Sounds like a great menu - for snacks try hard boiled eggs, Mattesons turkey sausage (no carbs) and sliced meat (but if you buy it already cooked, watch the sneaky added sugar)
