[babypiggy]

Kellen,

Thanks for taking the time to share your suggestions and advice. That's kind of what I was thinking too, that I should do induction for 14 days and then if I'm feeling good with this WOE I should advance to adding in more vegetable carbs as quickly as I can. I think I can do without fruit, but will really miss vegetables and nuts. I would be real happy if I lost even a couple pounds during induction as long as I feel better and feel like Atkins is "working."

Yes, I do like to eat eggs, fish, chicken...it's just that I'm used to maybe 3 times a week, not 3 times a day! And I'm definitely not used to eating fat on purpose so that's a huge mind shift. I bet my diet was 90% carbs (mostly "good" ones, but still!).

Oh, and I didn't know what 'anafricangrey" was until I googled it, so no, I'm not the same babypiggy from that forum. Weird coincidence though!

Thanks again.
