Kaj je Atkinsova dieta?

Pred približno tremi desetletji sem poskusil Atkinsovo Dieta za hujšanje. Atkinsova dieta je režim z zelo nizko vsebnostjo ogljikovih hidratov in več beljakovinami. Res sem shujšal - skoraj 60 funtov. Nisem se počutila lačno - v resnici je moje telo popolnoma izgubilo željo po obrokih, vključno z "usta želja" in "munchies" zaradi uživanja v drugi moji slabi navadi, ki sem se je lani znebila.

Kaj se dogaja?

Additionally, the acid reflux which was plaguing me for a couple of years was gone after only a couple weeks of following the diet. I followed the diet to the letter, not cheating, going through the two week”induction” period, of very low ogljikovi hidrati intake (nearly NO carb intake, really), and tested my urine with the keto sticks each morning, first things, to be certain I was keeping ketosis. I got both the simple book about the diet and the Atkins Cookbook, and learned how to make some delicious hrana.

I also used the Atkins Shake mixes and canned shakes, for when I had been at work in the morning, and had to gulp down a quick breakfast. The wonderful thing was that the weight came off where I had off it the most- in my stomach and abdomen. Many experts say that people who “carry” their extra weight in the belly are more prone to Diabetes than individuals that are equally obese, but with an even distribution of extra poundage within the body. I was wearing clothes I had not worn in a couple of years. I had been on this”amazing diet”, as my disapproving physician called it, for approximately five months. I looked great and did not feel hungry.

Bolečina

Pred nadaljevanjem me je ustavila bolečina - ostra, močna bolečina v ledvicah, ki se je nekega dne nenadoma pojavila. Ugotovil sem, da ledvice failure was a hazard of following this diet. I ceased, and the pounds came back with a vengeance- probably gained back that I’d lost. Despite taking a multi-vitamin and a lot of different supplements daily, I became deficient in certain fitonutrienti, such as Vitamin C.

The past couple of months I had been following the diet, I had no immune system, and caught colds easily. I also have a little lump in my left leg- if it’s a little gout or something else from the diet, I do not understand. But the significant thing was that the extreme pain in my kidneys, which induced me to stop instantly. I’m still trying to find the diet program that is right for me.

Zadnja beseda

Sčasoma sem štela kalorije, se trikrat udeležila programa Weight Watchers, bila preprosto lačna in še vedno nisem našla trajne rešitve. Verjamem, da je bilo omejevanje ogljikovih hidratov idealna pot zame, vendar ne tako hudo ali ne za tako dolgo obdobje.
