Atkins Diet.

Do you think it's bullshit? Do you think it works? Do you think it works for only certain people?

I honestly think it is bullshit. I was taught, growing up, that Carbs are a source for energy and are good for that.

Body can't burn fat without energy.

Pretty much everything I eat is carbs and I'm very thin. I'm about 140 6'1". Oh yeah and I sit here all day.

Yeah, but you're 16 and your metabolism is just going to deteriorate over time. Either way, I think the Atkins diet can work, but it isn't a very healthy diet.

Oh, I don't mean for me Titus. I'm talking for people over 25.

I know, the person I was referring to was !K_A! since he used himself as an example or eating carbs and still being thin.

ah, sorry. My mistake :D

But I think there are some instances where the Atkins diet may work (worked for one teacher at my school)

The only way to lose weight is to not be a lazy ass. Always works.

Thats me except I go out every once and a while to harras the hot ass chicks in our neighborhood, sometimes it's well worth it ;) .

i agree with you badboy. I have some exercise vids, a rowing machine, and my Tang Soo Do vids coming in soon. Plenty of activity to help lose some weight.

But a weight-loss plan i found useful was the SlimFast (i lost 10 lbs)

Correct Badboy.

The main thing to not being a fatass, is not eating like a fatass. If your fat, and you come here all day long and play games all day long. Then don't, do some damn pushups, go drink some water, Eat salad instead of ravioli. Simple shit like that , just exercise all the time and eat good, doesn't matter what it is, if you eat good portions you'll do fine.

Mantralord has lost several pounds on the Atkins diet. It isn't a healthy decision though. Best thing would be to cut fast food and too much greasy foods, eat a salad a day, and excersize.
That's what I did, I used to weigh 288, now I weigh 185, and I am 6'3.

It works because the body is forced to sue fat as fuel instead of carbs, but you do feel like shit, from what i've heard. Im starting my cutting cycle this week

me at 145lbs last october:

Im trying to cut back to 150 at 9% body fat like the 145 pic, Im thinking of going low carb for 4 weeks but its hard because most food contains a shitload of carbs, also i need to get a thermogenic pill to raise metabolism.

WOw you look compeltely different then what i expected you to...

But anyway, arent those thermogenic pills bad for you?

I doubt they are, all they do is increase heart rate and metabolism which helps to break down fat cells, combina that with morning cardio & evening lifting and you'll be set, also you need to have your diet worked out or you wotn get results.

How did you expect me to looklike?

yeah, I heard someone was suing the Atkins people because the diet nearly killed him. Also, I can't eat salads...something about the taste I can't stand. Any salad substitutes you can recommend?

Cabbage ?

I HATE Cabbage...

I only like the following vegetables: early peas, sweet peas, broccolli (spelling?) w/ cheese, green beans, place-eyed peas, and mashed potatoes.
