Start Weight:(25 Oct 09) 220.0 lb
Current Weight:(20 Nov 09) 207.0 lb
Goal Weight:160.0 lb
following: Atkins
performance: losing 0.7 lb a week

I'm a recovering couch potato turned roller girl with hypothyroidism trudging through the battle of the bulge.

My body just doesn't like refined sugars, starchy carbs, or processed junk. I feel best on a boat load of supplements eating high fat, moderate protein, and low carb.

Low Carb at Taco Bell?!?!?
Had Taco Bell for lunch, 1 carb per chicken soft taco sans tortilla. Works for me!

Taco Bell's probably okay. Of course, I'm diabetc so I need an even amount of carbs, but I think when you're dieting you need to watch out for calories more than anything. The break down is that 1g of carb equals 4 calories, 1g of fat equals 9 calories, and 1g of protean equals 4 calories. Know that, and it should be easier to balance your diet. It's probably the best option to have chicken at taco bell. Skip out on the sour cream or go for a lighter sour cream if they have it. Avoid beef, cause it's kinda fatty. Beans will be good for protean, and you should be able to have a tortilla; they're usually low carb, anyway. =D


Woops, Stars you're in the Atkins forum. These ladies are counting carbohydrates, not calories.

Your information might be right for WeightWatchers, but it's not right for Atkins.

Tortillas are not low in carbs, they are quite high actually and so are beans. We need all the fat we can get so we want the full fat sour cream.

These are great OMM = One Minute Muffin.
