Welcome!
I have dr Atkins new diet revolution I think the new Atkins new you is similar but not really sure, get into a book shop and have a look at both of them but think the diet revolution is the originally.
And don't forget don't can't your calories just your carbs! I'm sure you will love it and the mims are soo good I definately won't miss bread now x

Something in going to do tomorrow is make up a few recipies and freeze them so I can just pop In the microwave, tomorrow I'm going to make some cheeseburger pie from the recipies section and a flaxseed loaf so I have 'bread' for sandwiches, I've also seen a recipie for sausage, bacon and egg mcmuffin type things so going to make them for breakfast.
Really don't know what to have for tea but I'm not hungry, I had a MIM for breakfast, an Atkins bar around lunch time and 2 mini peparamis and a mini babybel around 6.

No more than 20g of carbs on inductions, foods you may eat liberally all fish, all fowl, all shellfish, all meat, all eggs, 90-110g of full fat, firm, soft and semi-soft mature cheeses, 230 - 340g of these salad vegetables a day (in pic)
140-200g of these veg a day (in pic) if salad does not exceed 230g

Also use butter not margarine, olive oil is good, don't remove skin and fat from meat you can also have 10-20 olives a day, half a small avocado, one ounce of sour cream or 3 ounces of unsweetened whipping cream, it does say these foods may slow loss in some people so if it does avoid in first 2 weeks

I'm sure you can have them on induction others do and I'm not sure how many calories after, I haven't really read that part of the book yet but you increase your carbs slowly untill you know how many you can have to lose, sts and gain etc
Induction is a minimum of 2 weeks but maximum 6 months I think, when you read the book it explains a lot and he uses real life examples of his patients to help you understand

Hope you had a nice BBQ today stef and good luck for tomorrow.
I need to try and cut my caffeine out but think I will try to do it slowly and not have the 2 litre bottles in the house maybe just 1 can a day.
I do normally have a big salad in work for my lunch so normally get a lot of my carbs from there but not had work for a few days.

I really live doing Atkins/ low carb as its do easy but I don't think the weight loss is fast enough for me at the moment, when I finished my vlcd ( it was only meant to be a break) I was a very comfy size 14 could squeeze into a 12 but not move lol and basically I never went back to the vlcd didn't refeed properly and ate all the wrong foods do gained back 1stone 8lbs of the 3 stone I lost, my size 16 work trousers are now very tight on me with a muffin top!
I saw my mum today in town and when walking towards her from a distance she said she didn't recognise me at first from the weight I've put on!
I've got about 1 months supply of vlcd diet packs left from last time as im going to use them as I don't want to waste them and hopefully lose the weight a bit quicker, get back to where I was previously then come back to Atkins for the long haul as I can see Atkins being long term not just a short quick fix.
My 1 week weigh in is due tomorrow so I will post what I have lost x
