New Member on Day 3

Hello everyone
I have posted a couple of times already. Thanks to all who have replied and helped me out.

I came off CD a few months ago because I just couldn't get back into it after my first attempt when I lost 3 stone. (yes - I have put it all back on again).

I was looking on Minimins and started reading the Atkins pages and here I am!
So far so good. I think I have managed to keep to the 20g of carbs each day and I'm not having any weird side effects.

It's very hard to imagine how this diet works, especially as I teach Healthy Eating!!
I'm going to give it 2 weeks and see how I get on. Is that long enough?

Welcome again
wow you will be teaching healthy eating whilst having cheese, full fat mayo etc

Haha - yes but it can't be any worse than teaching about obesity when I am!!!!!

Hi and welcome,

Personally I think atkins is a healthy way of eating - yes you do eat a lot of cheese and full fat mayo etc but I eat so much more fresh meat and veg since starting this.

Also I dont buy any processed stuff or convenience food now - everything we eat is cooked from scratch (save the odd weekend takeaway ) - that's gotta be healthier
