When my DH went to his doctor for the first time after we started Atkins, I made out a menu of the foods we were eating and the quantity, and sent it along with him.
He said it looked good to him. I think he was surprised that the veggies were in there.
Most people I know think it is all meat and eggs.
DH is 60lbs lighter and his doctor has eased him off his blood pressure meds. It is wonderful to find one who will listen and work with you.
