CARB INTAKE
Fiber is entirely made of carbs, but you don't count it on Atkins. Because fiber is indigestible, it doesn't count towards what Atkins calls "net carbs". In fact, net carbs is the "Total Carbohydrates" on a nutritional label minus the fiber. The remaining carbs is sugar + starch.

All the Atkins safe vegetables are good sources of fiber. He also recommends supplementing with psyllium husks.

Can I skip that element without it having a detrimental effect.


I don't think doing a low-fat, low-carb diet will work out too well for two reasons:

1) You'd have to make up your calories with protein. After a certain point, your body will convert protein to carbs and it'll be like eating tons of carbs anyway.

2) You need to Eat Fat to Lose Fat

Vegetarian switch
Not to sound like a harbinger of doom, but I'd really recommend against diving into vegetarian eating without doing a good amount of research. You need to make sure you're accounting for all the essential macro- and micro- nutrients. Tales like The Vegetarian Myth: Food, Justice, and Sustainability exist of people who have permanently ruined their health by doing vegetarian -- you don't want to end up there.

If you're doing no sugar vegetarian, check out the resources in Vegetarian Low Carbers.

Anyone doing Aktins?
Hey! Welcome to the site. Make sure you check out the low-carb groups. While not everyone does low-carb Atkins style, there are a lot of us that vilify bread, donuts and Twizzlers.
