Who would have thought reducing simple starches and sugars would take on the role of New Obsession (like tobacco and SUVs) in the addled corridors of the liberal media mind?

I have some high-protein toast turning brown in the toaster as I type. I'm also having some pecans over my high-protein cereal and locarb milk. That's going to be breakfast. What's great about the locarb milk is that it does not upset my stomache the way milk did years ago, when I stopped drinking it. Now I'm getting all that easy calcium again, and it's delicious.

An Atkins dieter eats an incredible lot of broccoli, beans, salads and fresh greens. I used to eat bread and pasta instead of those things. Keeping fresh veggies and fruit around is a challenge--it involves getting to the store more often. I used to just keep pasta dry in the pantry, along with the crackers. Atkins is not a cheap way of eating.

While I do enjoy lots of beef, I have fish at least two or three times a week. More, if you count canned fish like tuna and sardines for snacking.

Not only did I lose weight, but I've kept it off almost two years.

The only think I really miss is homemade corn bread, and I even have a little bit of that once in a while.

locarb milk

Dint know such a thing existed. I did a google on 'low carb milk' and came up with KETO.

Is that what you use?
