Atkins dieters, here are the 10 weight loss tips you have been looking for. Some of these may be common sense, others may be things you have never thought of before. Either way I have put these together based on some of my tips as well as tips I've heard from others.
#1. Team up with a buddy for support.
#2. Commit to this change, knowing this is a healthier way of life for you.
#3. Add variety, do anything to avoid boredom in what you're doing or else you will not succeed.
#4. Weigh yourself at the same time of day to keep you motivated. If not and you see the weight fluctuate for the worse it will bring you down.
#5. If you have a photo of yourself the weight you want to be, whether it was 10 years ago, or as soon as last month. Post it on your fridge, that way you will see what you hope to achieve.
#6. Exercises boosts your metabolism, so if you're complaining of a slow metabolism, that's the quick fix.
#7. Exercise will keep your mind off food, relieves stress and anxiety and keeps your head clear. So clearly put, why not exercise?
#8. If you're having problems exercising by yourself, find an exercise partner. Make sure it's someone reliable that will motivate you to be out there.
#9. Always have suitable food on hand so you do not cheat.
#10. Don't worry too much about your scale if it's not showing weight loss. Have you measurements set out and measure yourself once a week and you may be surprised by your progress.
These are just a few of many weight loss tips on the Atkins program which most can be really used for any program or even just weight maintenance. Keep a lookout and I will have more weight loss tips to come.

Atkins Diet
By Stephanie Boyle
Atkins Diet, I know popularity in the Atkins Diet or way of life has been steadily decreasing, however I'm sure there are still many avid Atkins followers out there so these are for you. The Atkins Diet is not necessarily what people perceive it to be. People think you can stuff yourself with high fat products and have no consequences, however that is completely inaccurate.
The Atkins diet works by restricting carbohydrates and avoiding high glycemic index foods such as soft drinks, fruit juices, and potatoes. Most of the misconceptions about this diet are that meat with high fat is a typical meal on the Atkins plan, which it is not. The goal on this plan is to show you still have a wide variety of foods which you can still enjoy such as salads, cheeses and lean meats which are better for you and will help you lose weight. There are various phases of the Atkins plan; induction, ongoing weight loss, pre-maintenance and lifetime maintenance. Each phase is as important as the next one and must be followed completely.
I have heard great successes on this program if followed completely. Atkins is not a diet as it is a way of life that you will have to continue once the weight is lost to be sure you do not regain it.
