My sister sent me in this direction when I asked her about groups for
following Atkins/locarb ( thanks Kaye) I have lurked for just under a week
and been doing Atkins for 2 full days, this is my third day. I did try it
once before but it was my TOM and I got so ill and such bad headaches I
caved in. this time however I am fine.

I am married with 3 children between 13 year and 17 months old. My husband
is planning on joining me in the WOE but we decided it was better to wait
until near the end of the week for him so he gets the flu symptoms, if any,
at the weekend.

Today is my grocery shopping day so I am probably going to spend twice as
long reading labels today.

Well I survived the grocery shop. I only made one bad purchase for myself
which was a pack of smoked salmon. DS decided to scream at this point ( for
fun may I add) And I checked the carbs etc but not the ingrediants, so got
home and it has sugar in. Put it in the freezer and will give it to MIL on
Sunday when we visit. Problem solved

It is shocking how much good seafood costs away from the coasts.
Outrageous.

Depends on how much sugar it had in it. Avoiding sugar completely is
not the goal unless you have real trouble with it (trigger food or
diabetes). Controlling intake is.

Happy eating!

Hi, Jules. Welcome to the group. I'm just a few weeks in, myself, and
still learning new tricks. Nice to see you here.
