Suggestions and Input for OWL ???
Hi! First thank you to everyone who's been such help and great support on this forum.
On Sunday I will begin my 8th week on Atkins. I am currently at 25g carbs/week and have added nuts and berries, protein drinks and occassional Atkin's protein bars. I haven't had any cravings kick up and can hardly stand the sweetness of the Atkins protein bars (usually only eat 1/2 a bar because I'm out and need something to get me through until I can have real food). I don't even add splenda to anything that I thought I would want it in ... such as whipping cream. (Thank goodness no sweet cravings... that's a miracle!) My weight loss has been at about 1lb/week since I started OWL. I'm fine with that ... though of course I'd love it to be more! I'm considering upping my carbs again another 5gs. Does it sound like a good time to do that?. Also, I'd like some input on what others have had the best results with adding as far as foods go at this point in OWL.
Thanks!
Lori
