Title: Atkins Diet I was wondering if the atkins diet is for everyone I seem to lose 5-8lbs but then that is it. I do like the way I feel without carbs, but I need to loose about 20lbs Name: lulu Date: Jul. 10th, 2001 Title: Re: Atkins Diet I don't agree with the Atkin's diet... but since you're already following it... Forget about your weight. Never look at the scale again. It's useless. Go by how you're looking in the mirror, how your clothes fit. If you really think you still need to lose weight, try adding some exercise like running into your "routine". But like I said before... I don't agree with the Atkin's diet at all. Name: J o e l Date: Jul. 10th, 2001 Title: This Diet Is So Dangerous!!!! The Atkins diet can cause damage to your body in many way's..1)You lose Muscle(2)you are actually losing water not fat(3)it can harm your kidney's(4)you'll have almost no energy(5)you'll have serious mood swings (6)you'll have overly strong cravings for sweets...plus, you'll only be able to stick with it for so long and your body will adjust to going off the diet by putting the weight back on plus some. My suggestion to you is to make some changes in your normal eating routine such as skim milk instead of whole or 2%, whole whet bread's...whole wheat pasta's and brown rice instead of white. You need carbohydrates for energy...but control your sugar, fat and sodium intake.

Just to reply to certain things, the diet doesn't harm your kidneys unless you dont drink plenty of water, you feel sluggish the 1ST WEEK because you are supposed to cut out caffeine & in reality, it lessens your cravings for sweets. Read the book before an incorrect statement is made. I have done it and it was the only way of eating that made me loose all of the weight I wanted. lulu wrote: > I was wondering if the atkins diet is for everyone I seem to lose 5-8lbs but then that is it.
