Can I just say ... wow

This is my first day on CALP after being on Atkins for weeks, and I've just had my first reward meal. All day I kept thinking that I'd have a terrible sugar rush if I ate high-carb food, as that's what usually happens to me ... I had roast pork, spinach, a small bowl of potato chips and an individual chocolate mousse and .... no sugar rush and I feel great. This diet is amazing! And the chocolate mousse was sooooooo nice

you will love cad.......wish i'd started like you.
i binged for months at RM, due to poor cm's. Atkins mentality will not work on CAD.
zule kept responding to everyones question, and kept mentioning about artificial sweetners and atkins lc foods are not all cm legal. i started to listen and today i had to remember to have an RM. I have noted this day on my calendar. i had cm at 12.30pm. It was 7:15pm when i actually thought of food and i wasn't hungry either.just passed by a bakery and remembered rm. awesome!!!!!
