Atkins Diet

A few years ago I tried the Atkins diet for a few months. I lost about 25 lbs but even trying a maintenance diet afterward was too hard to control. I gradually put the weight back on...but I must say I felt pretty good while on the diet (except for the restricted sweets) and I felt good about my weight for a year or so. It does work but if you really like carbs, this is tough.

What Diet Worked For You?

We read about all kinds of diets and each one has so many testimonials that you wonder if they are even real people. So I have created this blog for the everyday person to write into and tell us about a diet they were on that worked for them, or even one that didn't work for them.

Please be specific as to what you did and why you chose the particular diet that helped, or hindered, you so much.

If you are having troubles finding one that works, as most of us do, then post your problem here and hopefully someone will respond in a way that may help you.

Being healthy is so important, and many times weight loss is the key to better health, so lets all try to help each other with this difficult problem facing America, and much of the world, today.

Please be kind in your comments or they will not be posted. I want only positive feedback.
