    Atkins highs and lows

    After this last time I have concluded that I felt SO bad for the first week or so that just being able to stand up in the morning without staggering from the effort of supporting my body would count as a massive high. The high is just feeling normal again! Anyway, woke up to find my scales...

    Can you spot the difference?

    I took up cycling as well and did over 100 miles some weeks, so that made a major difference, but I did Atkins at the same time and I reckon that it made a major difference. I've put a tiny bit back on since the second picture, but it's coming off again. I have painted myself into a corner by...

    Atkins highs and lows

    Hi again all. I probably described things badly, but I still think there is a huge feel-good factor when Atkins kicks in properly. That's one reason that I believe in the diet. I refuse to believe that anything capable of making you feel that good can be bad for you. But the initial lack of...

    Indie, so far as mayos and salad creams go - and other dressings, I guess - just check the labels in the supermarkets. For instance, my salad cream is Tesco own brand at 2.1g per 100ml. Remember as well that you can take off the fibre content (Doesn't apply to Mayo, but worth mentioning). So...

    Terrible doctor

    Basically, your health is the priority here. All the evidence points to Atkins being both a prevention and a cure - in some cases - for all sorts of ills, including diabetes. Your doctor is an arse and should be treated as such. Brian.

    Atkins highs and lows

    I have been an on/off Atkins dieter for a few years, but have managed to shed 2.5 stone with it (and a lot of cycling) this last two years. I am on one final mega push for the magical 12 stone mark. I am just over 13 stone at the moment. Anyway, I went back on the diet about a week ago and...

    going from cambridge to atkins

    Errrrrrm....... You CAN'T eat what you want on Atkins. That's way too much of a simplification. The diet still demands a certain amount of self control and more than the usual understanding of how diets work 'under the bonnet', so to speak. You certainly don't have to be hungry on it though. I...

    My experience of Atkins

    Larger ladies I think that hits the nail on the head, that overweight is unhealthy. We all know that it is, so no point in kidding ourselves. At the risk of digging an even deeper hole for myself...... my ex was a large lady, varying between size 16 (briefly while on Atkins) and size 22...

    My experience of Atkins

    Thanks! Thanks for all your welcomes. I should maybe qualify my statement about larger ladies. I'm not looking for a stick insect. But I would find it hard to be happy with someone who was size 18 or above. That's just my personal preference. I know it makes me sound shallow, but physical...

    My experience of Atkins

    Hi! I found this forum when looking for information about where to get Keto sticks. I found it really interesting and registered immediately. Can I share my experience/opinions of Atkins? A brief intro: I'm 49 years old and need to shed about 30lbs to be happy, though I could settle for a...
