Yeah, the Atkins products are full of chemicals, and artificial stuff. Kind of goes against a lot of his principles described in the book about eating "real" food.

I'm going to be testing the PoH piklet mix, picking it up tomorrow. I'll be joining you on the PoH plan, FatLoCity from Thursday Steve. Its good to see you have had more success.

Maybe we should start a FatLoCity thread in the Australian Section of this forum? Might be helpful for the other Australian/Sydney folk?

I've had a pretty tough time with Atkins, so I'm hopeful this will help get the pounds off.

I'm gonna copy this to create a new thread... hmmmm FatLoCity, or Picture of Health? Picture of Health I think, cause their products are cool too.

what is this 'Picture of Health" thing I've been noticing in the messages? Is there a website?

thanks,
Cheryl

Picture of Health is an Australian (sydney based) company that has a low carb plan of their own (developed on individual requirements) called FatLocity (I'm going to see them for my plan tomorrow).

They are also developing their own low carb products for sale. I have bought the porridge and muffin mix, and its great. High in Fibre, low in carbs all natural ingredients. They are about to do a pikelet mix. The service is great, I received my stuff the next day by express post. They also have a discussion forum and great advice on their site.

I started a new thread for their site on the australian/NZ forum.

Cheers
Kim
