whats that? Havent read more than 4 pages! LOL, not had carbs for 2 days now!

Will read more and do it properly
 
do read it because you will see how it all works and it helps you understand what you're doing to your body, which is a huge change from sugar-burning to fat-burning. KILL THAT FAT - MAKE IT SUFFER
 
Will do love... Make a start on monday cos I know for a fact that my mum wont take off spuds from dinner tomorrow! We.re at theirs, their turn! LOL
 
have a good carb blow out tomorrow - then you'll feel so yuck you'll be desperate for sausages ;D
staple food of Atkins ;D
 
I come from an Irish family so I want to know - if you can't eat spuds and bread what do you eat? ?

You say you get to eat a lot of sausages on this diet? That's got my attention ;D
 
I have decided i want to try atkins, what websites, books etc do i need to read first ? x
 
Debbie, you eat meat, cheese, eggs, fish, butter, cream, olive oil - as much as you want
then a certain amount of specific veg and salad - it's quite a lot really!

no fruit (during the first two weeks, but sometimes I am naughty and have a bit of melon)
no grains (pasta, bread, rice etc)
obviously no chocolate!

as many sausages as you can eat!
 
Starting it on Saturday for sure.. Got a few things to get out the way first then I can concentrate on the diet
 
It's really not that bad because you feel good because your blood sugar is so well controlled. If you're interested get the "Dr Atkins New Diet Revolution" It's the book with the bright orange cover. There is also a website -www.atkinscenter.com (center spelt the American way)

Good luck!
 
Really? But don't all the medical experts tell you that its red meat that clogs your arteries?
 
that's complete bollocks. ;D The danger is eating the combination of high carb and fat. Fat alone is very good for you.

Remember Dr Atkins was a cardiologist first and foremost and knew all about arteries etc. If you are unsure read the book because it explains how it all works. You will notice your BP and cholesterol etc go down on Atkins - mine do!
 
It just seems way too good to be true. I'm a complete carnivore and can't believe you're allowed to eat all that :o
 
Will be starting the diet saturday, if not Monday.. saw my diabetic nurse the other day and she said it was a great diet to go on and should be able to see results in less than a week.. She also said that I should be on it for no longer than a month at a time..

So it may work out to be a month on, month off diet!
 
did you start the diet Kelly ? I'm starting slimming world tuesday after Easter of course, and am also getting the treadmill started up again I was good last year with doing half hour every night managing 2 miles and intedn doing so again, will put my ipod on and get into it, fingers crossed I will lose 3 stone before next march, if not before, hubbys the only one who knows I'm doing it because when ever i go with anyone else they always leave after a while so I dont want any thing like that to put me off, only prob is I have to walk past a chip shop on way home, this is where my will power has got to be strong,
