I have lost 73 pounds on Atkins since last July! Good for you. I did level off in February, and my weight has not gone up or down since. I consume roughly 50 to 60 carbs a day now. My cholestorol went down from 270 to 185! That does happen when one loses 73 pounds. I no longer eat Bread, pasta, ANY sugar, etc. etc. and have never felt better in years. I would attribute the latter to losing 73 pounds. I DO need to exercise more though. However, you have shown that exercise though great for cardiovascular health is not essential for weight loss. Just my observations. I'm a DEDICATED ATKINS fanatic! Uh-oh. Servant to the humblest person in the universe, Andrew -- Dr. Andrew B.

You don't have to switch to another way of eating to reduce the calories. Just east less. You probably meant to write "Just eat less."

I can understand people not wanting to be constantly hungry....however, being hungry a few times per day, say before mealtime, should not be too much to ask. The fact that most of us don't like it must, I suppose, come from conditioning -- we're just not used to it, and like something unfamiliar, we have become afraid if it. However, for weight loss, not all of that fear is unjustified, because some will definitely lose control after getting too hungry when dieting, and end up blowing the day. But generally speaking, those of us in the US have easy access to food, so we should know intellectually that food is only moments away. |
