JoAnne,
Congratulations on getting started. I just started on Dec 26th. I had started before...but blew it the week before Christmas. I do know I feel so much better when I'm on it. I did it wrong the 1st time, because I was doing Atkins from word of mouth...but now I have read his whole book.
The reason I am writting, is because I have been having a hard time figuring out what to eat too. Chicken only goes so far..and so does pork chops. I made Corned Beef last night...but what the heck do you eat in place of the potatoes and pasta.
So far in 4 days...I've had eggs...boiled...and quiche... I've had pot roast minus the potatoes and carrots...I did put green beans in with it. And, I've had chicken....
I need more snack food ideas...but everything I've found so far...takes so long to make... I love cheese cake...but the recipe I found was too drawn out for me...and I don't like to spend time in the kitchen...cooking that is.
Well, if you come up with any ideas let me know. I know, I'm whinning...but I want more variety. I can continue this for the long haul...I feel so much better when I'm doing it.
