I recently started atkins and im surprised at how easy of a transition it has been from eating all my starchy and sugary favourites to none at all. My one issue is I havent been able to find any sweet snack foods that fall within the guidelines except cheesestrings. Anyone have any sweeet snacky ideas?

    Not sweet, but macadamia nuts are great!

    I use cucumber as 'crackers' and top with any combinations of the following - cream cheese, salami, hummus, chicken, cheese, ham, mayo, tuna, sliced hard boiled eggs...... i really enjoy this snack, hope that helps :)

    I thought low carb was supposed to remove the need for snacking?
