Many men and women are not aware that the Atkins food plan was first released in the 1970’s. I am aware of this because my mother put me on the diet when I was a kid. She constantly had me on a diet because my weight yo-yoed up and down throughout my formative years.

One of the causes for my weight fluctuations could be because of the many eating plans I was exposed to over the years. My first diet plan was the Atkins Diet. This program was introduced to me when I was 10 years old. However, the program had been out on the market for a few years before I had a go at it.
Â
Generally, the eating plan revolves around protein and water. You need a lot of water on this program as is the case in any weight management plan out there. Water is essential on the Atkins Diet simply because your body loses so much weight so quickly that your kidneys have difficulty flushing everything out of your system if you are dehydrated.
Â
The protein is important in the plan because your body will actually burn calories digesting a large quantity of protein. You losepounds through eating certain meals. Your body uses its stored fat to process the protein. However, your body will burn carbohydrates first.
Â
When you completely (or almost completely) eliminate carbohydrates from yourdiet regime, your body has no other resource for energy besides its storage of extra fat to burn. The
Atkins Diet is a high-protein, low-carbohydrate eating plan that works wonders at first. You can lose a lot of weight in relatively little time on this program.

I can’t remember exactly how much I lost when I was on the Atkins Diet years and years ago but I do remember that it was an awful lot. I remember getting a lot of compliments on my accomplishment but I don’t remember suffering on the plan at all. I did eat a lot of cheese, eggs and meat on the program. Eventually, I longed for some cereal and bread.

Herein lays the biggest problem with the Atkins Diet. The program is not realistic. People will go back to eating carbohydrates eventually.Regrettably, it takes only a small amount of carbohydrates to throw your efforts out the window. These carbohydrates include fruit on the Atkins Diet.

I found myself gaining weight faster than I lost it once I quit the program. The Atkins food plan is a great way to lose a lot of pounds in a little bit of time but it is not a life-long eating plan that most men and women can adhere to. If you are looking to lose 20 to 30 pounds in a short time, the Atkins Diet is a good choice. If you are making a life change, opt for another program.
