I unfortunately could not stick to Atkins in the first two weeks. The first few days, I was loving it, eating bacon, egg and cheese omelets everyday for breakfast. But after about a week, I was CRAZILY CRAVING pasta, a whole loaf od bread, ANYTHING starchy, because my body had cleaned out the starches I had eaten before I started. I had no energy, because you get alot of energy from carbs. I also didnt lose 1 pound or inch while doing this, although mainly from the evil Depo-provera shot...but thats another story...Its comletey do-able, and will work, but the only is once you stop...you will agin all the weight back...AND THEN SOME!!! My friend went up to school weight 210. WHen I saw her next 2 months later, she was a size 9!!!!! However...she was home for 2 weeks, and laid off Atkins while she was home, and GAINED 15 POUNDS IN 2 WEEKS!!!!!!!...so if you plan on staying on atkins for the rest of your life, then go for it,....if not, I suggest you find another method...plus...high fat diets will catch up with you and your organs will pay the price...hope I helped a lil bit...let me know/...
