When I began this diet, I was hypoglycemic, suffered with migraines, and lithargic let alone overweight. Too many people do Atkins with the idea that they are going to lose alot of weight, really fast. When that doesn't happen, they jump off the wagon. What kept me on the diet wasn't the weightloss. It was the fact that I had only 2 migraines since I began this diet. I have not suffered from the shakiness and ravenous hunger that I get 1 1/2 to 2 hours after eating a meal. The Atkins woe has helped me to eat sensibly. The Atkins diet makes me feel good. The Atkins diet allows my blood cholesterols, triglycerides and glucose levels to be...perfect. I have lost 25 lbs this year so far which is the most I have ever lost and with the food that I have always loved. I would be crazy if I quit doing this.
