I keep an Atkins food journal and a typical day for me consists of:
Breakfast:
Hard boiled eggs and bacon - or - some low carb hot cereal with liquid splenda (yup the real thing that I got from the manufacturer)
1 decaf coffee
Lunch:
A big salad with lots of veggies and some protein source like tuna, chicken or beef with ranch dressing.
Dinner:
Low carb tortilla with veggies and chicken, or beef + cheese - or some type of low carb receipe from my Atkins receipe book.
Snack: Usually some SF jello. Sometimes I may make a batch of low carb muffins with splenda, and have those.
If I am super starved sometimes right after work when I get home, I may grab 1-2 oz of cheese, or some turkey slices to tide me over until dinner.
I do sometimes use low carb products, but I really try and stay away from those sugar alchohols. Stuff like the tortillas, that flax meal cereal, Atkins bake mix. I don't eat the bars, I can't stand the way the taste - yuck!!
One thing I just won't give up is my caffine-free diet pepsi, I know it's not a great choice, but we don't have access to splenda-made colas here in Canada.
I may have 2 a day.
