Is Atkins healthy?
Thank you. I have learned so much from all of you at fatsecret. I think I will do as Katana said, take in a little from every diet and go with my instinct, what I think is healthy for me. We are all different, but we all are aiming for the same thing, to be at our best and healthy, and I hope all of us reaches our goals!!!

Is Atkins healthy?
I agree. I went to one of the atkins forum, and the first two topics were...constipation...and a cucumber has too much carbs.

That says enough for me. I am sticking to my way of eating, cause no diet is going to tell me fruits are a no no. Smile

Is Atkins healthy?
Okay, First of all I'm not judging this diet. Iam interested in it. I have some concerns though and I figured atkineers would of maybe one time had the same concerns, so maybe you have done the research and know. I am asking this because Iam doing weight watchers and for my point and calories to not get out of control I have to pick whole wheat, high fiber, fruits and veggies..well...healthy foods. I also have to portion control. I was looking at recipes and EVERY ONE that caught my attention and made my mouth water was extremely high points and well...what I have been reading...bad for you. And they were atkins recipes. cheese, egg, bacon, pepperoni, sourcream, yum-o!! But just hearing that makes me think of hardning areries and fatty liver. I know the diet works..but is it healthy?

Do I need to eat all points?

Do I need to eat all points?
I log my food as I eat, because planning never works with my changing "food moods". But I've noticed that at nighttime after dinner, I need like 5 more points. I'm not hungry, and when I look at my food journal, I like what I see. I see about 1300 calories, but only 23 points (i need 2 Cool

. Is it important to get in all your points? Can you bank them? Isn't it silly to eat unwanted food just to make the point goal?

I can't afford weight watcher meetings..any help would be appreciated! Thanks.
