My Husband did the Atkins diet for 4 day's. He was sooooo sick by day 4 he had to lay in bed all morning. I made him penut butter and jelly sandwich, strawberries and whip cream...etc...CARBS!! Once his body had some carbs back in him he felt better....well it has taken a few days to get all the way back on his feet. Our bodys need around 300- 400 grams of carbs a day. He was down to 20. When you don't have the carbs for energy your body starts to burn you fat and muscle for energy...no wonder you lose weight. He lost 5 lbs in 4 days. SCARY!!! He vows never to do one of those extreme diets again!!! AMEN!! I tried to tell him...then I figured I better be supportive, I would like the same support for my diet. Which he does support. Anyway's I'm so happy he's done with that!!! Everytime he was frying up bacon or sasuage I thought EEEEWWW so much FAT!!

OK...I'm going on and on!

Bye, Bye
