 Re: New Atkins diet promoting bread & pasta | |
=)) Started reading, but stopped here: Quote: |
For the first two weeks, dieters eat only 20g of net carbohydrates - carbohydrates minus protein - made up of foods such as seeds and berries.
| So if I eat only -75 net carbs per day, will this affect my weight loss?

"The truth is that temptation lurks everywhere, unless you deny yourself a social and working life and the attendant pleasures of eating out. I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.
Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"
