I also love that when I bend over to pick something up or get up from sitting I don't make that "uuuuggggghhhh" noise anymore.

AMEN SISTA!

Re: Add yours... I LOVE ATKINS BECAUSE::

Where do I start:]

My knees don't hurt anymore
No more arthritis pain
No more headaches
No more gastric distress
Mosquitos don't bite me anymore
I eat very well (my favs are prime rib, lobster, scallops, and bacon)
I am in control of my eating for the first time in my life
Cheesecake is legal!!!!
I learned to prefer water over other liquids
My family is slimming down too
I have the energy to play with my kids, bike ride, and swim
Lastly, I am happy to have a life again!!!! I'm going white water rafting with my husband in 2 weeks. I never would have done that when I was heavier.

I feel better and have more energy than I've had in almost 20 years! And I just love the look on peoples faces when I tell them I've lost 36 pounds, while regularly enjoying stuff like a bowl of blueberries smothered in heavy cream!!

Re: Add yours... I LOVE ATKINS BECAUSE::

I can put away than most men I know, eat enough fat to satiate me - and still maintain my weight & a lipid profile that would dazzle even the strictest physician. The Atkins lifestyle thankfully gives us all that advantage!

Re: Add yours... I LOVE ATKINS BECAUSE::

The only "diet" that could ever help me lose 105 lbs and counting and still feel like I'm not dieting! I mean I can have CREAM and BUTTER and luscious steak! I could never give these up--their mine! Ok, yours too...

Re: Add yours... I LOVE ATKINS BECAUSE::

My clothing size, weight, and bad cholesterol levels are down!

My self confidence, stamina, and good cholesterol are up!

NO HUNGER!

Setting a great example for my children.

I've never felt healthier.

I no longer avoid cameras.

Best of all, my bf and I have lost over 100 pounds between the two of us... and let's just say our, uh, collective energy level has reached points unimaginable a year ago

Plus no more acid reflux!

Re: Add yours... I LOVE ATKINS BECAUSE::

There isnt anything Ive found on this WOE I dont like so far. I can eat whatever I like. I always thought Id miss the bread, but Ive found that I actually like the taste of many things better without it. You can actually taste what things taste like. I have found new appreciation to many foods since the taste is now "altered". Even sweetners dont taste good, its like eating spoons of sugar. I have so much energy and wake up early and sleep early. I just love it all!!

Re: Add yours... I LOVE ATKINS BECAUSE::

Being able to have lots of lovely things to eat and see the sick looks on my colleagues' faces when I start wearing lots of smaller sizes of clothing and I've had bacon and eggs for breakfast and steak for dinner (and you have NO idea how much my Dad gets jealous of me having steak! lol)
