Hi amdevelish...

Thanks for your response, I have in fact visited the Atkins site many times but it's been a while since I logged onto that site.

This morning I bought the New Atkins Diet book, I thought I was pretty clever. I went into a second hand book store and picked it up for $8.00 AUD which thrilled me coz usually it's a lot more here is Ozz and it's a new book as well, it's hardly used!! So I had a win but I also downloaded a recording of Atkins speaking about the diet which is really great to listen too, if you haven't heard it I can zip it over to you, if you like??

But anyway I just wanted a few quick start ideas, like at the moment I am eating ham and salad for lunches and 1 egg, two logan farm (frozen) spinach, 1 fat free cheese slice made into an omelette which is yummy for breakfast, then dinner, the same again, green salad and cold meat.

I am allergic to seafood and fish so I can't eat fish at all. I had a melon slice with dinner last night and again today but that is all I will have.

Already in two days I feel like I have lost weight so that's a bonus...

Thanks again for your response...
