Just a note to anyone looking to lose weight. I've always been active and in shape but the last 7 years (yup, since i've been married) I've put on a ton of weight. I believe in hard work and exercise but some of the hype I've been hearing about Atkins intrugued me. My family has a bunch of fitness freaks and they were also telling me all the benefits of a low carb diet.
Well on 8/5, I went to the atkins website and began a hardcore atkins diet. I also starting running again, less than 3 miles 4 times a week. I followed the atkins plan religiously, I did not deviate at all.
On 8/5 I weighed 215, today I weigh 186. 29 pounds in less than 2 months. I have a lot of energy, I feel great, I dont have food cravings. I used to suck down a bag of Doritos in 10 minutes. I eat 3 meals a day and dont feel the need to snack. My goal is 175.
I eat a lot of meat, cheese and salads. If you're a meat lover, this diet may work for you.
