Default Thanks

Thanks for the replys. I have given this somemore thoughts: I will slowly start to introduce a small fruit and one piece of (low carb) bread/day, to get some more fibers back to my diet (need them - veggies are not enough). Apart from that, I'll stick to the traditional low carb food as long as I can.

I think I need to keep my eyes closely on two things:
* The scale!
* Cravings!
I have so far been able to remove the food giving me cravings, hence I recognize the cravings immediately. It is a feeling that I used to call hunger - now I know better. Red wine, diet coke etc gives me cravings. Coffe is OK. I think I have found most of my "trigger foods".

I have ordered a couple of books to read thourgh (Atkins for Life is one) and will read and see what I find there. Barry Groves, eat fat get thin, also describes an easy way to eat for life IMO.

And yes: I excercise more now than I used to! Mostly because I am healthier and not as tired as I used to be! I have even started to appreciate morning walks and lift weights in front of the TV.
