Day 17 of my Atkins diet with 10 pounds down!!!!!!! I didn't think I lost any weight at all until I hopped on the scale this morning. If I hadn't lost weight I a was planning on giving up on atkins and going to a low-calore diet....

So here is the question.......the wife is making chili tonight? Is it ok to have chili a bowl of Chili on day 17 if I keep my Carb intake really low throughout the day?

Any and all advice welcome...thanks in advance.

It depends what's in the chili. If you're on induction, then only induction foods. If you've moved on to OWL, it depends on what rung you're on.

Ground beef, beans, chick peas, i guess just the usual

ask her to set out some chili for you before she adds the beans and peas.

usually chili is induction legal without the starches added to extend the meat.

We have somew induction legal chillies in the recipe data base.

You might want to get your wife to read DANDR as well, so she knows what you can and can't have and can cook accordingly.
