14-Day Atkins Meal Plan: Day 7

The Atkins diet is one of the most popular and debated low-carb diets, especially effective if your aim is to lose weight. The theory behind it is that you can eat as much protein and fats as you like, as long as you stay away from high-carb foods. That being said, our meal plan is for Atkins 40, which, as the name suggests, limits the carb intake to 40 grams a day.

Blended smoothie with 240 mL unsweetened almond milk, 120 mL heavy whipping cream, 3 Tbsp unsweetened protein powder (such as whey), 6 frozen raspberries and a few drops of liquid stevia (or other zero-calorie sweetener) to taste – 576 kcal

Snack:

2 Tbsp cream cheese spread into ½ red bell pepper – 95 kcal

Lunch:

4 dill pickle spears each wrapped with 1 slice Swiss cheese and 1 slice roasted turkey – 355 kcal

What could possibly make a smoothie creamier and more satisfying than REAL CREAM? Nothing, that’s what. Protein and just a touch of berry flavor make this a breakfast of champions. Lunch today is easy to make and even easier to eat, especially if you hold those roll-ups together with some toothpicks. Finally sink your teeth into this interesting take on a bunless cheeseburger complete with lettuce, tomato and all the fixings.
