Atkins Diet Overview, Is It The Right Diet For You?
 

Author: I Henman
Recently my girlfriend and I attempted to try the Atkins diet. After attempting and failing at a number of diets over the past few years this was the first time we had embarked on a strict low carbohydrate diets. The Atkins diet basically wants you to eat less carbohydrate such as bread ad potatoes and more protein such as meat. At first it was very difficult to give up the food we love such as breads, rice, potatoes etc but after a few weeks the results appeared to be well worth the sacrifice. My girlfriend lost 10 pounds and I lost 15 pounds we were amazed at how fast we saw results using the Atkins diet. The most difficult thing was to find alternative foods to eat to make the Atkins diet effective.

At first we tried to keep it strictly meat such as steak chicken pork or fish with a garden salad and some low fat vinaigrette dressing. But quickly we got bored f the same old meat eating diet that we were getting accustomed to. Yes we were losing weight but diner started to get boring so we went out and bought the Atkins cook book. The Atkins cook book is simply amazing it has so many great recipes to keep your meals surprisingly fresh and tasty. One of our favourites was mashed cauliflower. Its more or less just like potatoes salad except you substitute the potatoes for cauliflower, the result was absolutely tasty and wonderful. We would recommend the Atkins cook book for anyone considering to embark on this amazing diet plan.

The key to the Atkins diet is to limit the amount of carbohydrates at first. Basically it is to trick your body into burning fat instead of carbohydrates to keep your internal furnace going. This takes time for your body to adjust and it is important you stick to the diet to see maximum results. Over time we started introducing carbohydrates back into our diets but very minimal amounts coupled with daily exercise, we are both proud to have lost a combined 60 pounds in 6 months on the Atkins diet and healthier lifestyles. The Atkins diet is the first step, no diet will be totally successful if you don't have the commitment and don't exercise regularly.

Give the Atkins diet a try today and see for yourself if the results will be the same for you. You can go online and purchase the Atkins diet book from many websites or even go to your local book store for the Atkins diet and cookbook combo, take my word for it you won't be disappointed when you start to shed off the pounds.
