My Atkins Diet Story

Uploaded by: bowulf
Video Description:
aka how one Iowa guy lost over 200 pounds and gained his life back. I can not say enough about how positively the Atkins Diet and low carb in general has been for me. I went from a 429 pound guy who could barely make it up a flight steps to a guy running half marathons and rejoining the National Guard. My health is fantastic, and my blood work (cholesterol, triglycerides, blood pressure, heart) could not be better.

That would be extremely low weight for someone 1.8m long. Is 103 pounds the correct weight?

Hi, im 16 years old and i weigh 250 pounds (i think, i live in the uk so im not sure if i converted stones into pounds correctly)...
Anyway i have just started this "low-carb high-protein" diet just yesterday... i have 2 questions :)... Firstly, What breakfasts would you recomend? Secondly, What type of exercise would you advise? Thank you.

I actually have two ... ( 2 weeks ago by bowulf)

I actually have two videos on this subject - check them out here on Youtube. "Breakfast - not necessarily like mom made" and "Exercise it's non-negotiable" where I deal with both of these questions. The answer is a bit longer than I could bit in a 500 character reply, but both videos do a good job.

I only spent $1 on the book, and the food cost is nominally different than I was eating before.

After all it is ... ( 1 week ago by bowulf)

After all it is just eating unprocessed foods -- it is the processed junk that makes any diet expensive. Atkins encourages eating food without much processing and as close to its natural state as possible.

That's right. Just cuttin' out eating so much dang sugar and refined white flour. Neither one of those has any nutritional value.

We all have to start from somewhere, and it's not the starting weight that defines us. It's the work and how we get to our goal weight.

HELP ME!! I have been on diet for two weeks only lost 5 pounds so far- I am in ketosis acording to the strip- dark purple. what am I doing wrong?
I saw myself on TV and I look fat as ever!! HELPPPPPP

How many pounds do ... ( 1 day ago by bowulf)

How many pounds do you have to lose? Most people lose about 5-10% of their intended weight loss on Induction? Please give your stats, and we can perhaps see if there is cause for alarm. Just remember the weight didn't come on over night, and some of the biggest losers like Redneck500 lost 10-15 pounds on week 3 and 4.

Congratulations! ( 1 day ago by pinkandgreen10)

Congratulations!

Im trying to lose about 50 pds. I am 5 foot even and started weighing 158 I weighed myself yesterday and now I weigh 148. So maybe Im not doing to bad afterall. I could just be over anxious.

Congrats on being ... ( 1 day ago by bowulf)

Congrats on being ten pounds down already! That's the funny thing about weight loss we stress over when it goes too fast and too slow. Just be assured that you will keep going to goal if you follow the plan. You are on the right route. Good job!
