I would like to start Atkins but I'm a bit confused. I have read his book many times and have even tried the plan before, but now I'm really serious about losing weight. I have been food combining and only eating natural products, but...

I do not eat any dairy products. I really do not want to go back to eating cheese, butter and bacon. I use Veganaise, not mayo. I now use rice milk which I may have to change, but to what? Maybe soy or almond? I think they have sugar in them. Any suggestions? I use only soy cheeses. Are these ok? I eat only natural products. No white flours or sugars.

I hope someone else can help me with these issues. My self and my husband really need to lose weight, but I do not want to go back to eating the things we have already successfully given up and do not miss.

Thanks!
