Getting Through the First Week of a Low Carb Diet
There's no doubt about it - the first week of a low carb diet can be a challenge.

However, if you know what to expect, you can plan strategies to make it through the difficult time to the reward at the end - renewed energy, weight loss, and no more cravings!

Top Picks - Healthy Eating Cookbooks from your Low Fat Cooking Guide

You've made a commitment to healthy eating, so which cookbooks should you have to help you on your way?

1) The Essential Eating Well Cookbook
With its emphasis on "good carbs, good fats and great flavors" this book from Eating Well magazine offers a well-rounded package for healthy eating, appealing to those in both the low fat and low carb camps. And while it’s not specifically a diet book, there is plenty of nutritional analysis here. There are more than 350 recipes to choose from, with ample vegetarian choices, too.

2) Cooking Light Annual Recipes 2007
Marking the 11 year of its annual collection of recipes, Cooking Light magazine brings us more than 1,000 delicious recipes from the past year’s magazines, which is good news for those of us who avidly clip recipes from each issue and struggle to find them thereafter. As usual, Cooking Light offers plenty of innovative blends of ingredients, as well as lots of tips, suggestions and menu ideas.

3) Cooking Healthy Across America
Healthy down-home cooking is not an oxymoron. This collection of more than 300 recipes represents a culinary trek across the United States, featuring classic regional fare made healthy, plus newer, multicultural recipes reflecting America's rich diversity. The American Dietetic Association has done a masterly job of capturing the essence of old and new, and in bringing a lighter touch to some old favorites. Fried chicken? You bet. Bread Pudding and Bourbon Sauce? Absolutely.
