Atkins Book

[Nikki<3]

Hello!!

I am an old hat at slimming world and recently dropped back down to my lowest of 9st 3.... However.... This morning I'm back at 9st 8!!! I always do red days on SW and so think atkins would be a great alternative to help me get to my 9st target!

Just wondered which atkins book is the one I should buy? I'm off to smiths to buy it today.

Thanks!

Hi Nikki and welcome

You will really love the Atkins woe (I've just had a three egg omelette with mushrooms sauteed in garlic butter ). Any of the books are fine - and you can pick them up much cheaper on Amazon.

I've got this one - Dr Atkins New Diet Revolution: The No-hunger, Luxurious Weight Loss Plan That Really Works!: Amazon.co.uk: Robert C Atkins: Books

The original is slightly more hardcore on the rules - so a lot of people either buy the one above or this one - New Atkins For a New You: The Ultimate Diet for Shedding Weight and Feeling Great: Amazon.co.uk: Dr Eric C Westman, Dr Stephen D Phinney, Dr Jeff S Volek: Books

This one isn't written by the Atkins company but looks good too, covers all the low carb diet options - Low Carb Dieting: Everything You Need To Know In One Comprehensive Volume eBook: Heather Allen: Amazon.co.uk: Books

That's great thanks, I think I'll download it to my kindle instead then.

Just curious, I go on holiday on Friday for 12 days. I need to really get 3lbs off by then, shall I start today or shall I wait until after holiday?

Tough one - maybe if you have a read of the book, get to understand low carb and apply what you can on hols, then jump straight into Induction when you get back?

Sounds like a good idea thanks
I've been and got eggs, chicken, bacon, salad, mushrooms and full fat cheese to attempt my first meal!

SW and I fell out. and I gained everything I lost. Sounds like a great plan, knock the major stuff on the head, read up while you're away and come back refreshed and ready to roll xx
