I did Atkins about five years ago and lost around a couple of stones I reckon. Back then I bought the book and followed it strictly and lost well, then discovered various allowed extras and cheats and gradually my carbs upped and my weightloss stopped and then I fell off the wagon. After that I started a few different diets, all with varying successes but am back here again now, 14 weeks after having a little girl to lose my pre-pregnancy gains.
Only been on the diet for 4 days so far and already lost around 7lb and feel slimmer around the tummy! My scales are a bit wonky, it depends on where they are as to what they say!
Well, I'm hoping that since I'm actually posting this time, I might stick to it?! Hope so.
I've found that when certain foods are banned altogether (e.g. cakes, biscuits, crisps) I can do without them rather than being allowed them occasionally as with other diets, hence my return here.
But I hope I can resist the muffins and cakes and even the jelly and cream - I think I use too much cream, I definitely drink too much coffee.
Looking forward to joining in with everyone else here
