Atkins....

Has anyone done Atkins before ???

I am finding I am so tempted with food atm, and so I thought I would browse the Atkins forum to look at what they get to do....

Just wondered if anyone has done this before and if so what was the experience like ?

Yes i did Atkins and I loved it. I'm a bit torn because I also like the freedom that a diet like Exante gives me ie no meal planning, no shopping, no washing up and the bars are so easy to take out. But I would recommend Atkins also.

Yeah, Atkins is one of the many diets I have tried at least once over the years.

Liked it as a concept and did well with it, lost around 2 stone at the time but couldn't keep it off in the long term cos once I was off Induction those old habits crept back in again.

When I tried it again later I just couldn't get into it the way I had done the first time.

I think it's a diet where you have to change your whole mindset and attitude to food to see long-term success with it, and at the time my head wasn't in the right place to do that.
