My big brother said im gonna get fat eating buffalo wings

[sugarfree_lollipop]

We got food from the italian place and the only thing I could get that was low carb was the hot wings. I ate like 7 with some blue cheese dressing like uhh 2tbl spoons and my brother was like 'eating like that you'll never lose weight' and im like 'im on the atkins diet' and he's like 'the un-active diet'

he just made me worry that im gonna gain weight from the wings.

oh i got the akins for life diet book uhh i couldnt find the atkins diet revolution book at the library

now im gonna worry all night about the wings & dressing!

Stop worrying - if the wings had no breading on them they were fine from what people have said on here!

I just googled for them and found some pages with recipes for them - if you look at the ingredients you will see they are all on the allowed foods list.

you need to get into the habit of asking the staff at a restaurant whether dishes have flour, sugar and starches or grain in them before you order, or look the restaurant up on the web if they have a site and see if they post the ingredients.

Oh - and how about getting your brother to read the theory of how Atkins works and if possible ask him to help you stay on track in the future.
Dr Atkin suggested we recruit our family and friends to be our support team and help us eat to plan.

yep recruit that big big brother.

you should have a section in AFL that tells you what to eat in induction too.

Oh and if he tells you Atkins is the unactive diet ask him how required daily exercise can be unactive?

if you eat too much of any food even Atkins acceptable foods you will not lose so be sure to only feed your hunger and stop. if it takes 2 wings or 20 wings that is the amount you needed that day and are fine.

Happy low carbing.

I've eaten Hot Wings and I've lost 86 pounds - so 'pooh pooh' to him :P

2big4mysize, when you said AFL, I thought you meant the AFL in Australia - Australian Football League. ha ha!

ROCK ON!

Buffalo wings are sent from the Angels above LOL

I've been eating buffalo wings with blue cheese dressing (full-fat mind you, none of that "light" crap) a couple times a week and I've lost 73 lbs, my cholesterol has dropped, my blood pressure has dropped, I've gone from being sedentary to running 5 miles in an hour. Yeah. Atkins is gonna kill me.

[shashee]

LOL if that were my brother, Id tell him right where to plant em Wings are like the best part of this WOL, as long as their no breading, hot sauce really isnt bad, unless they are lacin it with sugar! Tell your brother to talk to the hand cus the ears are listenin!!

[staziaw]

Mmmmmmmmm, buffalo wings! Maybe that's what I should have for dinner . . .

Thanks for the idea!
