Wendy, in the Low Carb Kitchen Forum is a forum called Daily Menus where people have posted what they eat on a daily basis. Very little of it is fancy stuff.

Did you know that the reason Dr Atkins increased the carb allowance to 20g was that he found that there was no significant difference in weight loss between people having 20carbs or 5 carbs?


Absolutely Rosebud! And what the Eades call the Intervention stage on Protein Power starts off at 30 effective grams. It allosw for a lot of flexiblity and teaches you how to count effective carbs right off the bat.

After reading this forum since day 2 of its inception, I would say that yo-yo dieting is a major factor in lack of fat loss during induction. Being entirely stressed as well as not being mentally ready to give up the fat is another. It's not always as easy as carbs low = fat gone.

In the case of yo-yo dieting, consistency is what pays off.
