Atkins Diet Quick Hits: How to get off a low carb diet without regaining all the weight…


I get questioned this question quite regularly by people just starting the diet and usually their comments go like I can’t wait until I get this weight and start eating real food again. Usually I try to educate them about the maintenance phase of Atkins, and that Induction is not the only part of the Diet. Or they really rediscover they despise Atkins because it requires them to care about what they are eating, cook their food, or other things have taken precedence in their life. There are a few times in which it might be advisable to stop a ketogenic diet for one that more relaxed. For example, it is generally advisable that during one’s pregnancy that one stop’s at least following the Induction phase of Atkins. Another scenario where I could not fault one getting off Atkins would be a military deployment scenario. While I was able to stay on the diet while attending military school for 6 weeks, I was not deployed to field required to eat MRE’s every day. If you aren’t in control of your menu choices, then the option becomes doing the best with what options you do have. The most vital part of the video is to be patient in getting off Atkins and to remember the lessons you learned while on it. If you rebel and start binging on sugar or flour, you will regain the weight. If you take at least a carb conscious approach to getting off and recognize the benefits of appetite suppression are not gone, you may be able to maintain most of the weight loss you started on Atkins.
