The Atkins diet is definitely unhealthy, but are there any other fad diets out there that work? I need to lose some weight, and I've tried a few of the diets out there, but most of them have made me into an even bigger fat stinking hog. Are there any that work?
Not a single one.I know this won't make me popular but I don't consider Atkins all that bad. I use a similar version called the Anabolic diet (which, believe it or not, was developed for me and a group of bodybuilders by Mauro DiPasquale). When I am on it, I gain muscle, lose fat and I have my blood profiles monitored by an MD. My cholesterol always drops, the HDL rise, my triglyceride count improves, my blood pressure drops and I feel like a bull. I don't follow it all the time because the diet is montonous.
