All I know is that Atkins has performed miracles for me. Before I started it nearly ten years ago, I was fat, had arthritus, IBS, ezcema and pre diabetes, I looked and felt like an old lady, I waddled when I walked, it took me ages to get out of a chair, I puffed, panted and groaned when I waddled about, I wore boring "hide me" tents as clothes and felt constantly tired and achey - what a waste of the so called best years of my life (my 20s and 30s). Within a week or two of starting atkins, it ALL went.
Today I'm cruising towards 50 (I'm nearly 49 eeeekkk!!!) and I dont look it (apart from the wrinkles), act it or feel it - much to the horror of my kids. I wear the clothes I want, I can run, dance, I'm alert, fit and can do anything I want to. If thats bad for my health then BRING IT ON!
My biggest sorrow is that I believed nonsense about the Atkins diet all those years ago and it took me so long to try it! I hate to think of how many other people listen to this anti atkins/low carb advice and are unhappy, fat and old before their time. Its shameful!!! FFS at least try it - what is there to lose???!
As for all of this red meat twaddle??? dont eat it if it bothers you - theres plenty of other stuff you can eat - but theres no point in examining it meticulously to the point of stupidity - lifes too short!
