Agreed. Every morning I eat two eggs, for lunch I have a salad with a couple ounces of tuna or chicken or dinner leftovers, and for dinner some sort of meat (around 4 oz) with lots of veggies. Red meat is a rarity. I don't intake tons of fat or lots of calories. I also eat fruit, things such as strawberries and blueberries. Welcome to my Atkins diet.
I'm sure you will all go on believing what you want and that's fine. I disagree that my diet is as unhealthy as many believe it to be. Having not been able to really exercise since mid-February and still having another 4 months or so until I can even run again, Atkins is how I have managed to maintain, and even lose, weight while not being able to run or do any lower body exercises. I plan on continuing to follow this diet even after I fully recover from my injury. Just my $.02.
