So today I decided I would give the Atkins a try...I am just not losing fast enough on the CALP...so just going to tweak a bit...My question is...Can I have salad with my supper...he says have a small salad with lunch, but then in another part he says up to three cups...so...????? Also can I have a veggie with supper, besides salad, if I can have salad...I hope this makes sense...I was thinking about Chicken Breast...spinach...and salad??

The rules on the greens with Atkins is, if you have a vegtable on the approved list (remember only 1/2 cup), you can have 2 cups of salad. Or you can have three cups of salad and no vegtable, the choice is yours You can eat it for lunch or dinner. I sometimes eat 1 cup salad for lunch, and then 1 cup salad with my dinner and 1/2 cup of vegtable.

Thats the way I understand it at least. Happy Low Carbing!

Thanks....I think I get it now
