I'm starting Atkins induction phase tomorrow and I have a question about beverages. I drink nothing but water so I'm not too concerned, but I absolutely love lemon cucumber water. Will I still be able to drink as much as i want or will it add up in net carbs after so much? I know only 2-3 T a day for lemon juice and 1/2 cup of cucumber is 1 net carb, but will just slicing them and adding to water need to be counted?

    Just make a pitcher of the stuff with actual lemon and cucumber slices infused in. Then the carbs will be negligible at best.

    You can also use lemon flavored stevia drops and add the cucumber in. Should be no problem with that.
