Hey Jessica. Woohoo another Texan on the boards!!
Don't worry about eating too much. As long as you're eating the right foods, it's amazing that your body will lose the weight. But that means you do need to give up the really bad vices (bacon, chicken skin, coffee with 8oz of half n' half, etc). The cool thing is that many of the recipes are awesome on SBD. For chicken, I've found that I can still eat the dark meat, even without the skin and still feel happy.
And yeah it's going to be tough after atkins learning NOT to count carbs on everything you eat. Get some mushrooms, spinach, peppers, broccoli, etc and keep them in the fridge. They make great snacks, and are good dipped in hummuis and peanut butter. (ok not broccoli in peanut butter - that's just NASTY). :-)
