Hey, i recently started doing the atkins diet again, this time with a friend. we were talking the other night, basically looking for quick things we can get for either snacks or take out or whatever (i live in the bronx and am surrounded by some of the best take out food). we were wondering, does anyone know of any sugar free gum that would be ok to have, either during induction or after?

also, we were looking at the menus from some of the local take out places. the chinese food place had a diet section, geared for weight watchers. if i remember correctly, the two things they listed that caught my eye were the mixed vegetables and the garlic chicken. im assuming the mixed vegetables wouldnt really work, since im sure it has baby corn and snow peas and those starchy white discs that i still have no idea what they are. but, does anyone know the carb count for something like those dishes? is there any takeout chinese food that is allowed on this diet?

thanks for any help and input.

Matt.
