If you want a quick fix....it is Atkins all the way. You can eat a lot, just not the carbs. 20 carbs a day. You will see the weight drop off. Then the trick is to transition to a "normal" diet, introducing carbs and cutting down on the fat that you have been eating with Atkins. I am not a doctor so don't tell me that this is unhealthy. No one is talking about health! You can certainly do it for one month. I lost 25 pounds.....a few years ago.
Holy cow...25 pounds?! I just don't know that I can eliminate carbs without falling over. I get so sluggish!
I am going to work on taking out the big carbs--bread, pasta, chips, etc. Unfortunately, I'm addicted to frozen yogurt, which has carbs. (And that "Carb Smart" ice cream is an insult to ice cream!) Baby steps...
