  • Dr. Atkins Book

    I went thrift shopping today, and found a neat item!! Dr. Atkins book from 1972! I purchased it and want to read it just to see the differences from then and his new book that most of us follow. My boss is very against me doing this diet, he says its hogwash and VERY unhealthy. And yet he sits there with a big mac.. LOL oookkkk!! I do have a question, my friend that has also done Atkins, said that Dr. Atkins didn't do his diet. And my boss says the diet killed him. I don't see anything unhealthy about it! It makes you feel great, the weight loss is phenominal!!! What other diet can you loose 20 lbs in 2 weeks on? I have tried sooo many other diets and would barely move the scale. I think that alot of *LOW FAT* business want us to just spend our hard earned money into the craze that is low cal and low fat. I wish that more people that want to change their way of eating would open their minds to this wonderful way of eating.

    If I'm reading your stats correctly, you've lost almost 100 lbs. (Congratulations!!) and you're going to concern yourself with what your boss says! Nope, don't think so! You just keep doing what your doing, 'cause you're doing great!

      Ummm... Santa's elfs did it! With help from the Whooshie Fairy, of course.

      Bad elves. They left some ice on the road when they brought diet updates to Dr. Atkins in 2003. How else can you explain icy weather in NY in April?!?! And so Dr. Atkins went outside to wave the elves goodbye as they were taking off in Santa's sleigh, slipped on ice and hit his head. Bad, very bad elves!

      ~~~ THE END ~~~

      You're the proof that the diet not only works, but it makes you feel better and be healthier. Many people are uninformed about Atkins or did the diet from what they've read in popular magazines or heard from a friend's friend or read on the Internet (and I can tell you they certainly didn't stop by ADBB! ). If someone criticizes Atkins in front of you, considering how good you are doing on this "diet", there could be some envy involved as well. But in the end you'll be wearing your skinny jeans, while they'll still be wasting their time and drying their mouths criticizing Atkins.

      Happy losing!

        He's a silly man... I'll bet it's hard not to smack him around a bit, eh?

        My doc is 100% Pro-Atkins, and is the one who pointed me to this way of eating.
