Good morning STACers.
You know Atkins works for my body. I mean, I found a diet I could do, that turned into a way of eating, a way of life! That tells me my body does not process and work well with processed foods. I lost all my weight, and I felt great all along the journey. That tells me my body thrives in the low carb world. So, I can't go back.. We are all tempted with going back. But the minute we go back and get into the higher levels of carbs, our body converts that stuff right back to fat! We stop burning fat and start storing fat.
We think we can bargain with processed foods and or sugars and yet our bodies say, "I will store these kind of foods if you give them to me"...
My metabolism is such that any thing white is gonna get stored not burned.
Atkins is not just a great way to loose weight, it's a great way to live. There is no bargaining, trying to have it all. For my body it's all or nothing. Carbs don't work for me. Processed food is still getting a bad rap in many circles. Sugars are still showing up as a culprit to many troubles. Type2 Diabetes is still becoming the epidemic and it will show consistenly what causes it, the whole higher carb world.
My body thrives on whole foods, good healthy foods. I am sticking to that.
My little dabbles into the other side quickly remind me this is not how I want to feel...and I inch back out. I am learning and I am keeping the change.

Is it not enough that I know my body will react by inflaming at the joints causing hip/back pain. Is it not enough that I will blow up like a balloon. Is it not enough that I will feel tired and worn out? Is it not enough that I will not feel satified, but ill? Why do I ever question my self- Atkins is a great way to live- I know this- why can't I live it everyday? Why must I struggle?
