In Stage 1, you’re to eat 20 carbs per day with at least half of them from vegetables. That’s 10+ carbs. However, when you deduct the fiber you get from the veggies, you need to actually eat way more than the 10 carbs. That might be a spinach/cheese omelet in the morning, a large salad with a variety of veggies plus protein for lunch, and maybe a steak or other protein with a couple of side cooked veggies for dinner. Believe me, you’re never hungry!

Thank you both. You exploded some myths/ignorance that I was holding about Atkins.
