Atkins diet made me smell!

I gave up on the Atkins diet after two weeks after I realised that virtually everything that came out of my body, whether liquid or gas, ponged to high heaven! Great diet if you like fat, bad diet if you like your friends!

The diet worked short-term

My personal experience with the Atkins Diet was short but sweet; I managed to lose around half a stone in a week and a half, and as I am a meat junkie I loved being on the diet. I didn't really need to shed that much weight, but it seemed to work. I did find myself craving for carbohydrates after a few days, but as I didn't get much further than the Induction stage I never got to the stage where the cravings subsided. Since being on the diet, I've put the weight back on, although I know that to be successful with the Atkins Diet you must stick to it as a way of life. It shifted a few pounds for my holiday though, which I can't grumble at!
