I've been doing a lot of reading tonight on different sites and have read that too. Which kind of sucks since I love nuts and veggies. And really, organ meats, eggs, etc. I'm all for. But a potato over veggies or nuts kind of breaks my Atkin's heart

I want to do this right so I may have to bite that potato bullet. But still...

Also, I have a concern about the high amounts of saturated animal fats. not that I think it's bad but at least in America most of our livestock is grain fed. It's hard to find grassfed here and I'm betting the health benefits of grainfed fat & dairy is not the same as grassfed which is probably more common in Poland. Does that concern make sense to any one?
