Who’s Atkins ?
Why would you want to go on the atkins diet? The guy that made it died from a heart attack , so obviously it isn’t to helpfull! NOt trying to be mean.
Go to website
Not something I carry around with me….try hitting the library and look in Atkin’s book. There are meal suggestions in it.
Wouldnt recommend that diet to anyone. The person who began that diet..died of it!
Sheesh you want to take diet advice from a man who died of congestive heart failure?
and click on recipes, all of them are very healthy and guilt free in all ways and very Yummy
Atkins cuts out your carbs (carbs=energy), and if you have no energy, how are you supposed to work off your body fat??
The South Beach Diet is actually far more balanced - it is designed to help keep your blood sugar more level, which is the key to raising your metabolism (energy), controlling hunger, and ultimately losing weight and being healthier. You can pick up a variety of SBD cookbooks at any bookstore, and most grocery stores also carry a lot of prepackaged meals and snacks now too.
WARNING!!! The Atkins Diet is VERY dangerous, despite Dr. Atkins assertions to the contrary. It drives your cholesterol and blood pressure up, and unless you want to eat mostly protein and fat for the rest of your life, you won’t be successful at losing weight and keeping it off. Do yourself a favor: Spend $25.00 on a copy of “The Abs Diet.” You can’t miss it — it’s in every major book store and the cover is bright orange. It’s a common-sense diet and exercise plan that’s easy, safe, and doesn’t restrict any food groups.
Look it up online. I tried it for a few days and was completely run-down and tired all the time.
Just buy a lot of meat, cheese, and eggs. For example:
Breakfast could be a cheese and ham omelette and bacon.
Lunch could be tuna or lunchmeat.
Dinner could be fish or steak, etc.
Some carbs are good carbs, so if you have an Atkin’s book or manual, it will tell you what carbs you CAN eat. But I believe for the first 2 weeks, it’s kind of a cleansing period, with NO carbs.
Good luck!
That diet is not safe for you you need to eat fruits and whole wheat breads you cannot be healthy eating just meats, you need carbs to function properly and if you do not eat breads you will have the most awful breath you need to eat wisely.
To the ignorant person who said he died of a heart attack, don’t believe everything you hear without verifying it. He died when he slipped on ice and hit his head. I’ve had labs done while on the diet and they were better than any other diet. So, get your facts straight.
As for the menu. I don’t have anything with me because I’m at work but almost everything I’ve gotten is through searches on the internet. There’s a lot of good stuff out there.

You can buy these supplies at grocery stores near you, GNC, or any health/nutrition store.
I did the Atkins diet with some of my own modifications and I lost 65 pounds. I took off 40 pounds in the first 4 months or so and the rest over another 8 months or so. You can buy the Atkins book with recipe recommendations in any bookstore or probably your local library has a copy.You can also probably find ATkins Diet recipe books in both places too. It is a great diet. BUT, all diets require discipline regardles but it worked for me!! Good Luck!
