1 of 5 Mark Sisson on living low carb paleo properly, and eating grass fed animals
www.thelivinlowcarbshow.com wholehealthsource.blogspot.com I’m sure many of you paleo types out there are familiar with Mark Sisson’s blog. His site offers great info on diet, nutrition,and exercise.

Atkins Diet: Is Eating Out possible while on low carb?
Is eating out at restaurants possible on Atkins Diet or while low carbing? I certainly go out to eat a few times each week and can say conclusively there are a number of options for low carb’ers when eating out. The most important thing is to not be shy with servers about questions about the menu or in asking for substitutions.
