Atkins is such a bad diet, I can't wait for this trend to be over.

My boss is on it, and has been for about 6 months. She's gotten really thin (disgustingly thin, she looks like an adolescent boy :ugh: ), but she feels like shiet all the time. Eating massive amounts of protein and fat just isn't healthy. It's incredible to me that my boss will turn her nose up at an apple or corn, yet she'll shovel down three hamburger patties smothered in cheese. :barf:

even since i first heard of the atkins diet, my girlfriend has been telling me it's shit. she was also pretty confident that atkins really died of a heart attack. in other words, that article is not a shocker. it pays to have a dietitian as a girlfriend. :thumbup:

Wouldn't eating nothing but meat send your cholesterol level off the chart?

Ever notice the nutritionists that you see on TV are the most unhealty looking people? Kind of odd.

your body has ways of telling you that the atkins diet is shit
for instance, being emaciated and having no energy and in general feeling like shit. but oh well. think of it this way. if the people are stupid enough to follow the diet, they're the idiots of the world. so this atkins diet is a blessing in disguise. it will kill off all the morons in society. slowly but surely

I feel like that anyway, and I'm not even on the Atkins diet. :sad:

The diet is good for losing weight...nothing more. If you're more worried about an overall healthy lifestyle, atkins is not for you.
