Hi! I'm a newbie to low-carbing (only 3 1/2 weeks so far) and have enjoyed lurking here the last few days. I love this site!

I have a question for you all: how do you handle family trips while low-carbing? The Atkins site says you shouldn't expect to lose weight while vacationing but simply try to maintain. Sounds very reasonable, but I'm wondering if even that may be hard to do. I've been lucky with this WOE so far, but with a trip starting next week I think I'm going to meet my first real challenge. Our destination has wonderful tropical fruit and I haven't had *any* fruit since starting Atkins.(Can't find berries here in Japan and am afraid to eat other fruits..) I'll try to restrain myself, but....
Advice please.


Thanks,

SooCee
