You could just post your stats in kgs, some people do that.

You also need to supplement your diet with salad/green vegetables, this is where most of your 20 gram carb allowance should go.

I'm a ketchup addict and use it on eggs without a problem.

What is the artificial sweetner in Pepsi Max? Atkins says no aspertame. Some diet sodas are sweetened with Splenda or sucralose which would be a better choice. The best choice is plain water. At least 64 oz. Someone in metric help me, is that 2 liters?

I don't know if $20 NZ is as expensive as it sounds, but you really don't need the sticks but some people like to see them change colors.

You might be able to get a copy of Doctor Atkin's New Diet Revolution at your local library.
