Hi Wordlady,
Thanks, and imminent congrats to you too.
I was going to list all the benefits of having been on Atkins (general LC eating) but the list would grow far too long given how many benefits I've reaped from eating this way. However, I'll share the single most important benefit for me.
REASO N #1 - By far the most important -- Since veggies have nutrients that are essential to long term good health, eating LC allows me to drown the bitter taste of veggies in butter, cheese, or salad dressing--usually, I use all of the above.
Obviously, on any other plan which eschews fats, I'd never be able to eat veggies, ever.
So, that's my number ONE reason! |
