Default Re: Newbie- Just checking to see if i have got it right

Yes it takes a bit to get used to - especially if you're have been used to thinking low fat.

I thought it looked very good. The coffee is the only problem item. Atkins believed caffeine may be a problem for some people so you have to think about that one.

I also think that most of your carbs are probably not coming from veggies here (but from cheese/cream/spices/lemon. Is that right?

I think you did good on adding fat in even if you chose leaner proteins. How many percentage of fat did you have? We kind of aim for 65% of calories coming from fat, 30 from protein and 5 from carbs on induction.
