Hi everyone
Because I am still waiting for my Atkins books (think I have bought one of everything there is!) to arrive - I have been cobbling together my information from various websites and my dim distant memory from when I did atkins 6 years ago. Before I go much further I wondered if some kind creature would have a look at what I have been eating and just make sure it all looks about right?
nb: I got a bit busy/lazy at the weekend so sat and sun are more nibble/grazing days and therefore my veg intake was a bit pants - will try harder next weekend not to let things slip.

Many thanks
