I agree with this post. Atkins and CAD both work for me. CAD just makes low carbing easier on my family. CAD has reduced my cravings as long as I don't ever eat my allergy foods. I discovered by writing down what I crave for and what I eat on a binge that the foods are all allergy foods and I get major cravings even if I eat them only at my reward meal. Pasta, Bread, Chocolate, Cheese, Tomatoes, Beans, Wheat, MSG, and Soy all cause me cravings... oh and Eggs. I may not break out anymore or get stomach problems but the cravings are what is killing me. Thankfully potatoes and rice are still on my reward meals and my family is fine with that. I serve fresh bread slices so I can easily avoid them. The biggest troublemaker is MSG which is in everything. I have to make my own broth, gravy etc to avoid it. I even found it in hot dogs! Annoying!
