(Sigh),
In a nutshell,
Atkins is NOT a high protein OR high fat diet.
It's a low carb diet.
People go on and on and on about the two week induction phase which is the most
restrictive part. It's TWO WEEKS for cryin' out loud!
After induction, carbs are added until you start gaining again. That becomes
your carb limit. It's different for different folks.
Really, why would you object to giving up sugar, white bread, white rice, stuff
made with white flour? You know in your heart they're not good for you.
How come you lose weight, raise your HDL, lower your LDL, lower cholesterol,
lower your blood pressure and call this unheathy?
Veggies are permitted (fresh). What's the objection here?
Extremists always get into trouble.
So do people that don't get the book so that they KNOW the plan and why.
If you haven't studied the book, it can't be your opinion that's been given,
as you have no basis for one.
