Baajhan,

Oatmeal is fairly high in carbs. 1/2 cup of cooked steel cut oats has 26 carbs and only 4 fiber. So depending on your current level of the Atkin's diet may be a bit too high for consumption.

I workout 6 days a week so I can do a higher carb count. I normally prepare them as stated on the package and add cinnamon, pat of butter and a tsp of heavy cream.

Err.... i hv say 50 grams of oat meal every day morning with some beans, or egg, or cauli flowers or some thing.

I thought it was the best i can have in the mornings. Because i dd not find anything else to eat. i dont eat meat... i mean non-veg - so wat do i do???? :confused:

Hi Baajhan,

You really do need some form of protein to low-carb. Dairy or soy products or eggs.

Have you had a chance to read one of the low carb books yet or check out the Atkins website so you'll have the information on how and why low-carbing works and why protein and fat are essential?

Here is a vegetarian low-carb site (http://www.immuneweb.org/lowcarb/) that will help you out.
