Thread: Atkins snacks?

Looking for some different ideas for snacks while on Atkins. Thanks.

Not looking for lectures on how to diet and what not to do or that Atkins is bad for you.

Try nuts like almonds and cheese. Everybody loves cheese diet reviews

Really? That's good! I thought Atkins is a very strict diet and you cannot eat such foods as cheese, popsicles, and almonds.

Be careful with the snacks. In Atkins '72 version, the one I follow, he limited people to 4 oz of hard cheese per day. Mainly because cheese is so high fat. Nuts are also high fat, but they're also pretty high carb. I mean, really, who can stop at 1 oz of nuts? Eat a handful or two and, oops...there go the carbs for the day. So just be mindful...and record...what you eat so that your snack choices fit into your daily carb count. Remember, Atkins didn't say fat doesn't matter. In fact, he said that if you stop losing or even gain, the first place you should look is to your fats.

Dazzler...yes, you can have cheese and almonds...but obviously within limits. Popsicles? If they're 0 carb, not a problem, but a lot of sugar free products are *very* high in carbs.
