Hi to everyone, just thought i'd introduce myself and ask a few questions if that's OK. My name's Heather and I am planning to start to Atkins on Monday (after I've been paid so I can take a trip to the supermarket lol).
I've done quite a bit of reading up but can someone please just clarify something. In the induction period, you can have 20g of carbs a day - of which 12g must be made up of veg etc...right so far? So does this mean I have 8g a day left to eat whatever?? As for example, I've seen these 'muffins in a minute' which are about 8g carbs...so if I have this I can't have anything else this days containing carbs right?
Then you can also have olives/4oz cheese a day...is this ON TOP of the 20g or do you include it in it?
Sorry if this sounds a bit 'dim' I just want to be sure.
Thank You xxx
