Default Carb lovers unite!

Actually I was a carb lover/addict, but since starting Atkins I have developed great control over my carb cravings - I am truly amazed at the transformation!

Besides Atkins (which starts off with 20 carbs daily for 2 week induction period) there are many other lo carb plans which vary in their limitations.

I suggest you have a look at: http://forum.lowcarber.org/forumdisp...?s=&forumid=25
which lists many different types of plans. You want to ready through the boards to get an idea of which plan may work best for you!

Good luck!

Froufy

the best one is one that gets you out of eating carbs. like drinking you can not have just one. and smoking you need to keep away if you truely want to quite. the good news is that you do lose the cravings and after some time can maintian some control when carbing (as long as you limit the carbs and the time frame of loading) but good luck. and join us.

There are a variety of low carb diets out there--if you really want to try this lifestyle, I suggest you go to your public library and check out various low carb books and read read read. That way you will have a better understanding of what this is all about and choose the plan you think may be right for you!
