I started the Atkins diet 10 days ago (ask me a question)

how is it goin'..? I've been seriously starting to little by little cut out carbs., I have a wife and 2 girls in elementary.. so shopping carb conscious is pretty tough.

that diet isnt for anyone. thats not the way out bodies work

if I eat bread it's 1 slice of the grainiest bread you can find.. It's laborious to eat healthy in todays marketed culture. sugar is every fucking where.

I'm married with 2 kids. I have 20 or less carbs a day. I have to shop separate from them. costs a little more but really worth it. I have cut meal portions in have and in 10 days I have dropped 14lbs. I have added 1 hour in the gym on free weights plus a 10 minutes ab workout. I started at 240. I can feel a massive change inside of me.

I have zero sugar in my diet.

Dont speak unless you have something intelligent to say. :)

Sugar is the new tobacco

This is my second time trying this diet. I went one week before and had a cheat day (Bad Idea). After the cheat day I failed at the diet. This time no cheat day. LOL

Sugar is like fast food places. Destroying America from the inside LOL

My Ketone levels are staying between 110 and 130. It took about 6 days for my body to adjust but really feeling good about starting this diet.

Buy a George Foreman Grill. That helps me prepare my small meals.

Good for you, OP (and congratulations on your accomplishments thus far).

Not only you, but your whole family will benefit by having you healthy and in top shape for years to come.

Keep doing what you're doing.

Awesome!! Great info friend.!

Thank you for the encouragement. I know the wife is already happier. Best thing is that my 11 year old boy hits the weights with me everyday. Spending an hour with him everyday has already made it worth it.

Glad I could help. If you decide to start the diet let me know because I have a lot of recipes and a site that shows what you can eat and there total carbs.

Were you aware it's no longer the 1990s?

You are merely shocking your body, this diet is a proven failure for over a decade now.

Eat rice, fish, vegetables, whole grains, if you want real health and weight loss.

Cutting the sugar is the only good thing.

Ask yourself how many overweight vegans do you know?

Good luck and good health!

No its not ,,,

STOP!

You may get colon cancer if you continue.

.. is that the Chet Atkins diet?

Especially when such a fad diet was created and promoted by someone that passed away bloated and overweight and most likely had a heart attack that lead to the slippage on the [thin] ice he was walking on.

Plus,the superficiality that includes the categorization as something general as "sugar" or "carbs" as being "bad"/detrimental and not really needed while the examples attributed to that pertain fundamentally on what is mostly junk food and blindly focusing on the carbohydrate content of it rather than the other constituents and/or ingredients with the effects that they have on the body. Processed white sugar doesn't not equate to "sugar" in itself.

Cutting out the gluten is what makes this work for some people.

FISH


FRUIT

SALAD


EXCERCISE

LAMB CHOPS!!

THIS^^^^^^^^^^^^^^WORKS!!

Lost 15 KG in two months..and have NOT put it back on..and I can eat as much as I want and I feel FANTASTIC.

What do you eat? Give me an example of a days worth of meals, please.

Congrats OP! I hope it works out for you!!

How can this diet be proven a failure when I am losing weight? I do not understand your logic.

Thank you.... It is working great for me, but like I said before this diet is not for everyone.

I usually start with a grilled steak (8oz) for breakfast or a spicy can of V8. At lunch I have 2 strips of grilled chicken. Dinner varies but last night I had a 1/2 cup of steamed broccoli with baked salmon filet.

Sea Perch for dinner tonight.

Extreme low carb diets cause colon cancer.

...and constipation.


High fat diets block insulin receptors, leading to diabetes.

Blood flow throughout the body is significantly slowed down after a single high fat meal.

I went from 440 to 285 then was a dick head started eating carbs now I'm back to 330. I need to get back on it. Good luck.
