Thanks for the welcome folks - and thanks for the tip about de-caff coffee Gypsy - I rather naiively assumed that there would be no caffeine in it - doh!
I also tried an unsweetened soya milk substitute from the local co-op in my tea - but it just made the whole thing taste of flour so I had to chuck that away! At some stage I can hopefully start re-introducing a bit of milk into my tea - but I don't think I'm ready for that yet.
Something I have also noticed since starting Atkins is that my skin seems generally in better health. I used to suffer from occasional mild excema on my arms - however that problem seems to have gone away.

Ebbie - I'm in Worcester.


Cheers
