  • What I found searching for Atkins info

    When I searched for atkins reports, in google, all i found was negative stuff.
    Im so sick of these people who say "Oh the doctor died of a heart attack".
    OMGOODNESS! I want to slap them. Its ignorance, it really is, people havent read the book or did any research and think they have the right to bash it. Negative people. I even read that people can die from this diet? People can die from breathing the air and being obese. Doctor atkins didnt die because of his unhealthy eating. How unhealthy is it really, to lose weight eating natural foods and feeling great? Yes I am only 19, but i was on atkins when i was 16, i was the only person i knew at the time that went on the diet and i lost 67 pounds in about 8 months, and felt great, i had so much energy. Now tell me that thats not healthy? These people need to grow up.

    Sorry just venting

            I get all that negative crap too..... when I say i'm on Atkins. I only know it works 4 me. I hear when you go off you'll just gain it all back... YES!!!!!! you would that would HAPPEN with any diet if you started eating cake and candy again. This is a new way of eating not a quick fix.

                People are negative. No matter what you do there will be those that support you in the minority and the vast majority that will offer their "experience" ..... I just made myself laugh ..... and negative comments.

                Next time somebody says "Atkins is bad for you and doesn't work ...." ask them:

                1. How much weight they've had to lose before
                2. How they did it.

                Or just feign interest in their comments and ask .... "I'm curious to hear more about how the Atkins Diet Failed You".

                Chances are you will get responses that can be categorized in the following :

                1. They have absolutely no experience whatsoever. And don't know what they're talking about.

                2. They have experiencing not following the Atkins plan.




                Misery loves company. If I can't rise above myself and conquor my "demons" and "addictions", I'll be damned sure if I want others to do so as well. So ....

                It won't work, stop trying, abandon all hope.

                We can change our lives and ourselves. Find what works for you and stick with with it .... and more importantly I've found .... adapt when what used to work no longer works.
