I ate a nice egg omlette this morning... but Im honestly not even a tad bit hungry for lunch at all. I have an Atkins shake I was thinking about taking.. it's for all phases... Is that a bad idea? lol

    Eat when you are hungry. I think if you eat when you are not hungry will defeat the purpose.

    I read that it's good if you're not hungry until 4 hours after a meal. But just be ready and planned out for when you do get hungry so that you grab the right foods. I found this to be an awesome benefit of atkins, not being hungry all the time.

    Eat when hungry, but don't try to go low cal or low fat on Atkins. That way leads only to a vicious stall.

    I'd eat a small snack with protein and fat like a cheese stick and some almonds. Atkins suggests not skipping meals.
