| debi_c_g's Full Review: Atkins Diet |
I am an Atkins follower. I have been a follower for more than 20 years. I have tried his diets off and on when ever I needed to lose weight in a hurry and it always works for me.
About 3 years ago, the book "The Diet Revolution" came out and I read it from cover to cover. It explained in detail how our bodies work and what the body will and will not process as we get older. I found out that I am a carbohydrate addict and I also found out that I am a diabetic, thanks to the clues Dr.Adkins gives us in his book. I then went to my doctor, had tests done and yes, Dr. Adkins was right. And guess what? My personal physician recommended Dr.Adkins diet to me! I was thrilled. My doctor told me that he, himself, has been on the diet for quite some time and has never felt better.
So, I began the diet. For the first few days, my cravings for sugar and especially breads were unbelievable! But as the good Dr.Adkins explains, that's because it is an addiction. Well, by the 4th day I was better. And continued to get better each day. Within 2 weeks, I was not hungry between meals. Anddddd I could eat all I wanted of STEAK and CHEESE! Im a meat eater, you see.
Well, 2 weeks into the diet, I had lost 20 pounds. I continued to lose. I stayed on the diet for over a year. I was down to my ideal weight. Unfortunatley, I had medical problems unrelated to the diet. I had to go on medication and off the diet. Doctors orders. And I gained the weight back in about 6 months. But this is the diet of all diets. I plan to start on it again soon.
