My wife started on the Atkin's diet years ago. It worked for her. She does
not adhere to it strictly because she lost the weight that she wanted to
get rid of. She now maintains her lovely figure by avoiding starchy foods
and high carb foods. It's not like she never splurges, but she does not
eat potatoes, rice or bread ( due to various allergies), eats pasta or
barely occasionally, the odd muffin or pastry. Breakfast and lunch
usually involve things like bacon, eggs, cheese, carrots, sliced peppers,
some fruit. At dinner she has meat, vegetables, fruit, occasionally a
sweet dessert.

I don't think it is more me. Starting the day off with meat and cheese
just doesn't agree with me.
