  • I'm Loving It! IT WORKS

    Hello everyone! I have started the Atkins WOE on May 21, 2009 during TOM. I have always been a believer of the program but just did not have the mental will power to live the lifestyle. I have heard so many wonderful things on this site. Staying OP is easy as a result of this site.

    The key for me is accepting Atkins as a way of living. Acknowledging that REFINE CARBS are TOXIC TO MY HEART, KIDNEY, LUNGS AND LIVER and I can not handle processing them daily no more than I can handle having alcohol, drugs or any other forms poison daily

    I am experiencing everything the book teaches and loving it all. I do exercise and my water intake is at about 160 ounces per day. The WalMart 20 ounce bottles of water makes this a breeze.

    Someone here stated something close to you can chose to live controlled by the Atkins WOE or you can be controlled by Diabetes, Heart Disease, Hypertension or worse.

    My biggest challenge was eating enough protein from meat. I was (past tense) a sweets lover. But being from New Orleans, I have gone back to my roots and I now enjoy my quick dishes with every type of protein on the market.

    So far my weight lost has been 6 pounds this week!
