 Re: Some Helpful Hints For Those New To Atkins!!! | |
Trying to follow both the 2002 edition written by Dr. Atkins and the new, and not so improved, "The All New Atkins Advantage" would have you tearing your hair out in frustration. They are not even the same animal. It is low fat and low calorie. Breakfast is a boiled egg and an Atkins bar nearly every day. You can eat low carb bread right from the first day. The new ANA people are interested in selling the low carb products, not helping you lose weight. Quote: since I started the Program back in Jan 09'.
| Those of us that have been on Atkins for several years know that you have to change from being a fast food/processed food junkie to eating whole, healthy foods to take the weight off and keep it off. Have you ever read the ingredients list on those low carb bars and shakes? I defy you to find the real food in any of them. The true Atkins is all about real, whole food. |
