Money motivation
In this programme, and other articles and programmes, great emphasis is made on the commercial aspects of Atkins - and by implication undermines the motivation of the Atkins approach. What strikes me, though, is that I've been following this diet and only paid the price of the book - no weekly fee to a slimming club - all the support and encouragement you need for free from this site - its costing me far less than Weight Watchers or Slimming Club. The special low carb products would be nice but we're managing OK without them here. My food bills have gone up cause I am eating better quality food but I am not spending on takeaways and ready meals so its swings and roundabouts - and I am eating better all round.
Thanks for the article link Demi - very interesting.
