  • Atkins and calories

    Hi, everyone. Five months and 55 pounds later, I am pleased to report that it's true! The WOE does suppress your appetite and change your cravings. As a 300 pounder, it was not unusual for me to eat as much as 5000 calories on a bad day. Yesterday, I went to a party, avoided bad foods, ate too much and still only had 12 carbs and 2000 calories for the day. And I was STUFFED!

    I live in the deep south and we fry everything (if it's possible to fry it, we'll try, just to see if it tastes good!). If you've ever been to a restaurant down here, then you understand. We went to a restaurant where they put fried sweet potatoes on the table! That's sweet potato sliced, battered, deep-fried and dusted with powdered sugar within my reach. I was not tempted in the least. My friends were amazed because they know that in the past, I would have eaten these non-stop until I couldn't eat any more. Instead, I smiled and wasn't interested. Thanks Dr. Atkins for changing this southern man's life!!!!

    If you are still new to this, hang in there. It really does work!!! Blessings to all!!!!

      good for you That self control is an amazing Atkins skill we get and newbies think they will never be like that and even post so only to come back months later with a topic like this in just utter amazemnet that they too have mastered that self control.
