How does this plan work? What are the guidelines to eat or not eat? I am interested even though I battle a sweet tooth, nothing seems to be working for me to budge the scale.

 
First consult 306, pre-op visit 278, surgery date 272, current 198

The atkins website is a great resource. They explain everything but basically, you do 2 weeks of 20 carbs or less, and you can't use all your carbs at once by eating a couple of cookies bc that would ruin it. That would spike your blood sugar, which causes a rise in insulin, which causes you to burn those carbs instead of burning your fat reserves. After this phase you start adding in fruits and whole grain carbs gradually  and supposedly you keep losing weight. The website has food lists of acceptable foods. They are all the foods that we should be eating anyways!.
