Talking about Atkins as our WOL has gotten me looking ahead. Since I have so far to go until Maintenance, I haven't really read that part of the book yet. I've found some interesting info. there.

I find at this point in my journey, I am afraid of the day when I will have to start increasing my carbs. Afraid of the cravings returning! I have to agree with lotsawater...

If I understand Maintenance, we will be adding back some fruits, and whole grains but never sugar or white flour on a regular basis. "restrict your consumption of sweets made with real sugars to the occasional slice of birthday or wedding cake for really special celebrations. Those of you who have had a sizable chunk of your life made miserable by sugar may even decide, after graciously accepting them, to quietly deposit those pieces on somebody else's plate." (DANDR Lifetime Maintenance chapter)

I plan to get the Atkins for Life book and memorizing it
