I’m not saying that Atkins diet is bad. It just doesn’t work for some people and in my case had really bad side effects. It’s great if it works for you..I envy you. But please beware of the bad breath side effects. Severe halitosis can affect your self esteem.

I lost my job because of Atkins diet. Why? My job was in sales. During my Atkins adventure, I developed severe halitosis. I didn’t know it at first, but then started wondering why anyone who got close to me sneezed and rubbed their noses. At first I thought it was just conincidence that they all had cold or something, and this went on for months. I lost weight, but I also noticed that people avoided being close to me. My gf wouldn’t kiss me. My self esteem and sale performance plummeted.
Horrible show. The …
Horrible show. The calories don’t disappear. They are excreted in the form of ketones. The ertion that you either burn them or they end up stored as fat on your hips is ing wrong, wrong, wrong.

Why would anybody listen to this “expert,” Theodore Vanitallie? He looks like he needs to drop at least 50 pounds himself. He should try Atkins.
Atkins is not a …
Atkins is not a high calorie diet and he does not give a license to gorge. He says that calories do count, but you normally don’t have to count them because limiting carbs lowers insulin secretion–the hormone that drives hunger and fat storage. You are satisfied on less food and can better use your stored body fat. Also, Atkins is not high protien. It’s adequate protein. Most calories come from fat. Fat satisfies, but the only dietary fat REQUIRED is to provide essential fatty acids.

When I went fishing with buddies when I was younger, I threw a hard boiled egg in the lake, under a floatting pier and all these small fish started eatting it. Protien is good for humans too.
