A day without Walmart is unimaginable

Here are some common size comparisons to visualize to help
you determine serving sizes.
3 oz meat = deck of cards or palm of a small hand
1 oz of cubed Swiss cheese = 2 dice
1 oz of cheese = 1 thin deli slice
1 cup anything = 1 baseball
3 oz meat = deck of cards or palm of a small hand
1 tsp butter = tip of thumb

Hello,
I’m new to the group. My name is Diane. I’m 50 and just started on the
Atkins diet. My concern, although I’ve read the book, is my high
cholesterol. It’s the best diet I’ve ever been on as far as hunger. I stay
satisfied, but I would like to hear from people with like concerns who have
been on the diet a while.
Thanks a lot and glad to be here,
Diane

I went type in Atkins Gram Counter and went on to this web
page ..Can’t rem. which one it was they are..Anyways I was able to
print out all foods that you would possibly want with every count of
carbs/fiber/fat/protien/calories….reason being I bought 4 lobsters
for tonight and wanted to see how many carbs..6oz lobster 2.2 carbs
YIPEEEEE!!!Butter 0 carbs. if any left over.Tom.lobster salad on a
bed of lettuce..Atkins is an awesome way to go….I am not eating 4
lobsters maybe 1-1/2
Barbara From Massachusetts–HAPPY :)

I’m 211/181/130, not 211/182/130.
Guess I am just used to putting 182~

Well tonight my 7yr old granddaughter(Mckenna) is staying over..She
loves Lobster and her and I usually have this treat once a year..So
yesterday she asked if we could have it tonight…HALLELULAH!(SP)For
Atkins because I can have it and dip it in butter and not feel
guilty..
This is such a great way of life long eating
I don’t miss white products at all,and am never hungry it is just
amazing..My roomate asks if anyone has noticed my weight loss?NO!!
thank god I don’t need other peoples approval..I was so heavy
220/195/150 no one will probably notice it until I tottally lose my
stomach..that where most of my weight is..like I have been pregnant
for 13 yrs!LOL I have lost 25 lbs and am starting to fit into
different size.I try not to put so much emphasis on my weight
loss..I don’t want to get discouraged because the body is very
strange and I could be on a plateau for along time with little or no
weight loss then one day BOOM down my weight will go..
So think of me tonite while Mckenna and I indulge ourselve on
LOBSTERS!!LOL…Barbara from Massachusetts

I just got through printing out the recipes for the Jello (to make )
Thanks so much they sound Deeeelicious..I must confess that I have
been eating the already prepared jsugarfree jello tsk! tsk!..LOL
I just figured it was better then eating something really BAD..
Also making it must be a lot cheaper then buying it I find the foods
to be a little expensive!!
Again thanks..Barbara From Massachusetts
