Low Carb Diet Tips

I just wanted to report in that as of today, I have been doing a modified Atkins and have lost 5 pounds in one month. I have to say what Atkins says in the book is true. Before I started this modified Atkins I was hungry all the time. It was so bad I had to carry food with me constantly. I exercised like crazy but never lost any weight. Now I can go for four hours without feeling like I am starving. Also, before I started the modified Atkins, I would have terrible drops in my blood sugar where I would feel shaky and weak.

Low Carb Diet Plans

I used to think the Atkin’s Diet was crazy and scary but a friend lent me the book and after I started to read it - it began to make sense to me. I have been trying to lose that last 20 pounds for the last 10 years and have been unsuccessful. I thought I was eating the right stuff - yogurt, Kashi bars, fruit and high fiber cereal. I was always hungry and never satisfied plus my blood sugar would drop radically and I would feel awful. Also after my father-in-law was diagnosed with diabetes, he had to change his diet. He had to eat less carbs and more protein. He lost a ton of weight after he started eating that way. I think this is why I finally decided to take a look at Atkins ways of eating. Here is Atkins had to say that began to convince me:
