Things I love about Atkins.
There's more to the Atkins diet than bacon, LOL!
If you're familiar with the Atkins diet, you know that you get to eat things that other diets can't - but there's a lot more benefits.
1. A lot less hunger. One thing that really stinks about dieting is bieng hungry all the time. On Atkins, I get hungry only if it's been 5-6 hours since I last ate, so I can concentrate on other things. I can't tell you how much I love that freedom! My energy stays nice and steady, even when I'm on my bike all day.
2. The fat comes off in the right places. I can't say if this is the same for others, but this has been my experience: On Atkins my stomach and thighs shrink first! WOO HOO! Last time I was on a low cal/low fat diet, my bra was suddenly empty. Not on this diet! :D
3. Hair/Skin/Nails. I love this! Within a month of bieng on Atkins, my skin clears up, my nails grow faster and stronger, and my hair grows in better.
