Which books?
Hi,
I am fairly new to Atkins, but not low carb. I started the Atkins diet after checking out the New Diet Revolution from the library (small, yellow paperback). The book is due back soon (I have checked it out a couple of times in a row) and I want to buy my own Atkins book. When I look on-line I see there are A LOT of Atkins diet books. Which one(s) do you recommend and why? I read somewhere that the newer book(s) talk a lot about sugar alcohols and net carbs. I really want to have a book that is true to the original Atkins philosophy. My concern is that those who are running the Atkins business now - how do we know they are staying true to the Atkins way and not just promoting their products? I don't know. Any advice?
Also looking for a good cookbook. I have both of the Fran McCollough books (love them!), but wondering if you highly recommend others (even some of the Atkins books) or not?
Thanks!
Carrie
