thank you so much.. I was told sunflower seeds were a great snack by a friend of mine on Atkins.. and I was also told that grapefruit was needed to burn the fat as so said by her doctor.. My blood sugar was 163 this morning, the highest its been in 2 weeks, and i have been baffled, thinking maybe I was eating too much celery. Yes I do have the Atkins book, Unfortunately I listened to what a friend and her doc said! I will drop the seeds and grapefruit.
