Hi everyone

I would love to try atkins diet, but everytime I start it I get bored my daily diet as follows

Breakfast
3 bacon and 2 eggs

Lunch
Chicken and lettuce and mayo.

Dinner

Could someone tell me if this is correct or is there something I'm doing wrong?
I followed this for 1 week, i eat the same thing everyday but I got tired of it could someone pls suggest another eating pattern, I don't like beef or lamb
Your help would be great

Re: atkins???????????

Not eating beef or lamb is going to limit your choices.

But before getting into protein, the initial phase of Atkins allows 20 grams of carbs. It looks like you are not getting that much. Atkins recommends using them to eat as many nutritional dense veggies as possible - like green leafies, broccoli, etc.

Back to other protein sources . . . do you like fish? Canned tuna and salmon are easy. Any fish filet cooks up quickly. Then you have all the shellfish. Ham, various pork sausages (pepperoni, etc.) could provide some variety, but you have to search for brands with no added sugar and Atkins did stress organic, which I take to mean added nitrates would not be good either (with the bacon also). Turkey, in various forms, either plain, deli, turkey sausages, burgers, bacon, etc. Some full-fat dairy products can be used (watch the carb count, though).

Re: atkins???????????

It's great to make stir fries too. Use some olive oil, add garlic/ginger/herbs... add some neat and add plenty of low carb veggies.. can add some wheat free soya sauce to taste.

Chessey omlettes are good too.

I love a roast dinner - roast chicken, lamb, beef etc.. add plenty of veges and use the meat juices, mustard, mint sauce, horseradish etc..

If you like fish, it's easy to bake some boned fillets in the oven and then add veg.

You're not getting enough fiber. Eat green veggies or supplement with psyllyum husk.
