You know what?

Some people have said in the past that they get bored easily of the choices of food we can eat on Atkins.

I have been doing Atkins for over two years and I have just had for my dinner my all time favourite meal, which was my favourite when I first started my Atkins WOE......

Rump steak, fried in butter. With mushrooms in double cream and a few florets of Brocolli and some cauliflower. All washed down with a pint of cold water!

I think I could eat that sort of food for ever! And guess what, I am going to!

Either I dont get bored easily, or this so called "diet" offers a decent variety of food!

Just something for you all to ponder, you can carry on with your everyday life now

I think they misuse the term bored and just get in a rut of eating the same stuff over and over and then say they are bored with the food. Cause with all the possible proteins and fats and veggies in just the induction food lists you could have a different menu every day for well over a yr.

I agree with 2Big, they must be the type who eat the SOS (same old stuff) everyday.

When I was researching Atkins and deciding whether or not to go on this WOE, I took a look at the acceptable foods list and thought "WOW! Look at all this food!"

How do I shut people up when they go on about everything I am missing?

"Who wants chips when you can have two steaks?"

British English: Chips = French Fries

What did I have tonight?

Steak and salad followd by Greek Yogurt and mixed berries.

Couldn't agree more with you both. Some would think I'm boring because I have the same thing for breakfast almost every day (a hardboiled egg and an ounce of cheese). But come lunch and dinner, I find the variety on this woe amazing, even when I was on induction. I still have my favourites, like Buffalo wings on Friday nights. Ooo, today is Friday! Yum!

oh my goodness! I love the variety! Last night for dinner I sauteed up red peppers, onions, mushrooms with garlic and spices and at the last minute added a few handfuls of fresh spinach, shrimp and parmesan cheese! Bored! NO WAY!

Yes, I want to go back to a diet where all I eat is dry lettuce. I'm tired of eating things like I had last night - ceasar salad, cabbage sauteed in butter, shrimps in a sauce made with butter, garlic and a touch of cream cheese and whipping cream.....NOT!!!! And steak....oh my....if I could afford it, that's all I'd eat.

Last night I made homemade Lobster Bisque for an appetizer followed by parmesean/porkrind breaded fried porkchops and a nice garden salad with freshly grated parmesano reggiano cheese and extra virgin olive oil and vinegar....it was to die for, and I was smart, I made enough so that I'd have leftovers for today!

Tonight we're having cheese fondue and another wonderful salad....what's not to like?

I'm making bikergoddess pizza tonight

Last night it was sirloin steak on the grill, with a spinach salad.

I never get bored with food! Give me anything and I'll make a meal, and if I like something enough, I can eat it 3 times a day, 7 days a week lol
