Preparation
PREHEAT OVEN TO 350F. Put the yolks in a large bowl and beat them with a whisk, just breaking them and mixing them well. Slowly stir in the condensed milk. Mixing well, stir in the lime juice. The mixture should be tart--if it isn't pleasantly tangy, stir in more lime juice. Pour the filling into the pie shell. Bake for about 12-to-15 minutes. Remove and cool. Whip the cream, slowly adding the confectioners' sugar. Spread over the pie and sprinkle the lime rind over. Serve at room temperature, but refrigerate if not serving within 3 hours of baking.

Diet hints and tips
In deciding on a diet, it is essential to attempt to lower your consumption of fat, salt and refined carbohydrates.
Some reduced carbohydrate diet guidlines:
* Dietary fiber is essential
Lowering the carbohydrates in your diet often leads to reduction in fiber as well. Look for reduced carbohydrate recipes that are rich in fiber to redress this.
* Eat regular meals
Most reduced carb recipes are, you won't be surpised to learn, low in carbohydrates. Your body requires energy, and carbs are a very efficient energy source. A reduced carb diet needs more care in managing your energy intake, as any energy contributed by fat or protein is much slower acting.
