Doing Low Carb

Kathryn41057

For those doing Low carb, how are you making out? Do you like it or not ? Can you give some pointers to someone thinking of going low carb? I am finishing up the Induction stage of Atkins, part of me would like to go on, but the other part is a bit hesitant because of the lower carbs. I guess I'm looking for some insight.....

I naturally eat pretty low carb because I am not a bread/dairy/beans person and prefer lean meats and veggies as a rule. That's just my personal eating preferences; carbs don't make you fat. I just don't like bread, pasta or dairy. My only real high-carb preference is candy - I do like that. But even when I eat candy I tend to be way under the MFP carb recs.

I like a lot of paleo recipes, though I do not follow and do not recommend following a strictly paleo diet. I just like eating that way. Amazon tends to have a lot of free paleo cookbooks in their Kindle library, if you're into those http://www.amazon.com/Best-Sellers-Kindle-Store-Cookbooks-Food-Wine/zgbs/digital-text/156154011/ref=zg_bs_nav_kstore_2_154606011?_encoding=UTF8&tf=1
