1 - The Atkins Diet

The Atkins diet is a low-carb diet, and operates on the logic that when you deprive your body of carbs, you force it to start a process called lipolysis/ketosis, when it starts to burn fat. The diet is therefore also known asa ketosis diet.

Ending the kitchen wars

“My husband and I love good eats. We enjoyed trying out new restaurants. We putter in the kitchen together. When something great happens, we celebrate by making elaborate dinners.
He wasn’t very happy about switching to what he calls my “cow food”—
salads, cereals.

And I didn’t feel like making two separate meals, to keep him happy while sticking to my diet. Despite everything I’d give up because it was simpler to just cook something he enjoyed.
