Hi everyone!

I am just getting started and in the process of reading everything I can about this type of diet. Stumbled accross Diet Doctor's web site a few days ago. A friend suggested I try Atkins and this seems very similar. I had bacon and eggs for breakfast this morning and it was great! I am not seeing specific carb counts anywhere like Atkins. Do most people count carbs or net carbs when following this diet? If so does anyone recommend a number for starting (I am thinking 30 net carbs but that might be too high?)

    Hi KLangleydoula!
    Thanks! I could use some camaraderie! I have never been the greatest with getting engaged online, but there are so many great stories here and it seems like the support really would help! I am trying to figure out all the MFP stuff, so I will see if I can friend you!
