Maybe I’m part of the problem.
I cut back on pizza from about once a week to once every couple months. A loaf of bread lasts until it grows mold (I live alone now). I cut back on spaghetti and lasagna to ??? Damn it’s been a long time. Italian sounds good for tonight.
I haven’t cut back on carbs because of Atkins - I found out I’m diabetic. I don’t want my feet to rot off so I’m eating just a little healthier.
Staying closer to an Atkins-like life is even MORE important for you. It sounds like you're on the right track.
