I am unsure if LC bread is allowed in phase one. . The bread I have is 6
Net
carbs.
I had for breakfast 1 omelet with cheese, A slice of LC bread with butter,
and A coffee with twin and 2percent Milk.
Is this okay in Phase One?
I havent actually started the diet yet. I've just bought the bread to try
it
out to see if its something I enjoy, and I can get by fine with it.
Any imput is welcome.
Thanks.

IMHO Carby products like low carb bread should not be tried until 6 weeks
into the diet, and even then, only experimentaly.

After 6 weeks, you may not want bread.

Many products made for low carb are problems for the diet. For me, the
exception is low carb ice cream, which seems to be OK. Others report
binging on low carb ice cream, so only use it, if you can control your
portion size.

When I started Atkins, I thought I would be smart and "improve" it.

So, I used various low carb bread and other products.

After one month of almost no significant weight loss, I stopped being
inventinve and followed the instructions in the book.

Now, I have lost almost 50 pounds in about 4 months.

If you want to try to repeat my experience by being smart and using low
carb breads and other advanced dietary substitutes, by all means, go ahead.

Prognosis.... probably poor, but all of us do seem to digest food
somewhat differently.

Grain products are actually the last rung on the carbohydrate ladder and
usually reserved for pre-maintenance and maintenance.

Here's a list of allowed food for the first phase (Induction):

Hi Penny, welcome to the group! I also want to apologize for referring to your
earlier post as being a troll -- I was basing that on a line from your headers
that showed up in a LOT of complaint posts, but it appears to be a separate
issue. Mea culpa!

As far as the bread goes, it depends on which plan you are on. If it's Atkins,
Induction, it should be avoided for a couple of weeks. It it's South Beach or
another low-carb plan, well, you'll have to look at the rules for that particular
plan.
