Atkins diet advice and suggestions please?

Hi there, I've personally been on the Atkins many times in the past 10 years. This diet is good if you just want to loose weight fast for a short period of time. It's not a good diet to be on the rest of your life, trust me! I worked in the medical field for many years and did a lot of research, and also had many personal experiences. What I can tell you is that for the Atkins diet has changed recently, but without reading his book, I can basically tell you what to eat and what not to. First, in the morning, I would eat about 2 to 3 eggs, sausage or bacon, about 2 or 1 each, you can have more if you want, it's basically little or no carbs, then you can have a diet drink that has no carbs, sugar free anything basically, soda, juice etc... for lunch, maybe a chicken salad with avocado, yes i said avocado, it's ok to eat that and also cheese's, low fat cottage cheese with a little bit of pineapple, and for dinner, any kind of meat, doesn't matter about the fat content, even fish is really good!! You can follow that up with a salad and/or veggies, just be careful with carrots and corn, they tend to have a lot of carbs. Oh, and for dessert, you can have sugar free jello, pudding, Popsicles, fudge sickles, or what ever you find that is sugarfree!! All you do is add the total fiber and subtract the total carbs, and that's how many carbs per serving. Also look out for sugar alchols, they are fake sugar so you need to add that to the fiber and subtract the carbs, and there you go!! Like I said before, it's not for life, I have had fast weight loss, and I've gained it all back and then some, so just be carefull, the best way to loose is to watch your portions and to exercise! Good luck!!
