Healthy Diet at Home

There is a lot of confusion these days about metabolism. It seems to be a scapegoat that people like to blame when weight loss doesn’t happen easily. If they’re following a low carb diet and struggling to succeed, then they believe that all of those years of eating carbohydrates must have destroyed their metabolism and made them fat. On the other side of the argument are those who oppose low carb dieting. These people claim that carbohydrate restriction will permanently alter your metabolism, but what’s the truth? Will eating carbohydrates or following a low carb diet ruin your metabolism – or not? What is Metabolism? Low carb dieters generally do not like to hear about the energy equation. Dr. Atkins told us that we no longer need to worry about calories, so most people believe the energy equation isn’t applicable to them. Calories don’t matter, they say. Dr. Eades has tried to set the record straight, but far too many people still do not want to go outside and drag the equation bac...

I ran into an interesting thread over at Low Carb Friends today. One of the senior members has lost almost 50 pounds, but he stalled a few pounds above goal weight several weeks ago. Like most of us who have experienced a stall at one time or another, he felt frustrated, but at least he was able to hold onto what he has accomplished so far. When Stalled, First Take a Serious Look at Your Eating Habits Although most low carbers don’t want to hear that the last few pounds often require you to take a serious look at your current eating habits, and make adjustments, the man decided to take someone’s advice, and take a look. He carefully weighed out his food and beverages for a few days, and recorded everything he was eating and drinking. His largest calorie hog? Heavy whipping cream in his coffee. Considering the way many low carbers fix their coffee in the morning, I wasn’t surprised. Are You Using Too Much Heavy Cream in Your Coffee? (Photo by Timothy Boyd ) Are Fat Additives Slowing Do...

My experience with low carb dieting began in the 70s when I ran into Dr. Atkins’ original diet book at the library. At the time, it made a lot of sense. I could relate to everything he shared – and when I tested it, the plan worked better than anything I’d tried. I was 19, weighed in at a hefty 160 pounds on a 5-foot frame, and with virtually no metabolic resistance, that one golden shot earned me maintenance within only 6 weeks. I realized the other day, that’s exactly where I’m sitting again today. I’m back to where I started from in 1975. A whole lot older, hopefully wiser, but despite finding out how to deal with my health issues, I’m still at the same starting line. Yes, I managed to shed a whopping 80 pounds in 2007; and another 30 pounds last year – but that was above where I first began my low carb journey. I’ve regained a good 10 pounds of that last 30 though. So what gives? WHY is weight loss so hard to maintain? Atkins 72: What was the Original Atkins Diet Like? I can tell y...
