Atkins was a success for me in losting 30 pounds in four months, my doctor
said I need to watch my cholesteral (even though it isn't that bad) and he
said I shouldn't do Atkins anymore because of the eggs and meat and higher
fat. I'm very upset about this.


I would fire that MD so fast his head would spin. Apparently he's
unaware that for most people only about 20% of serum cholesterol can be
attributed to dietary cholesterol.

I've tried doing low carb, but don't lose weight without my body getting the
extra fat to make it satisfied and tricked into my not putting it on a
"diet".

Any ideas how I can stick to a Atkins or low carb eating regime and still be
successful in losing weight? ANy thoughts


Low-carb, higher-fat is the way to go. Your MD is ignorant.
