Hello! I am Julie, and I am a stay at home mom to two awesome children. Noah will be 9 in May and Hannah is 6 1/2. I started Atkins on March 17th, 2011, and I feel great! My husband and I have been trying for our third child since 2008, and I am praying that losing weight and being healthier will aid in the process. I look forward to meeting new friends and sharing my journey with you all!

How Many Calories in a day is too little ??
As far as calories go, the MINIMUM you should be eating is 1500. If you eat too few calories, your body will hold onto fat because it thinks it's starving.

The Pie chart does show percentages based on total caloric intake. If you hover over each piece, you will see what number they based it on. It would be nice though, if they would add the net carb%, too when you hover over the Carb piece of the pie and as an indent under the Carb title in the legend.

A question for you veteran Atkinsers - what % ratio do you follow? I seem to stay within a 40-45% Pro/ 40-45% Fat/ 10-15% Carb range (using the pie chart numbers. Does this sound right?

My understanding is that you should be getting around 70% of your calories in fat. That sounds like a lot, but it is really doable. I recommend getting the new book, A New Atkins for a New You. You can also find a lot of useful information on the Atkins website!
