Atkins Diet in a Nutshell
The Atkins Diet plan basically calls for you to reduce your intake of carbohydrates. What this means is your intake is basically protein. The workings of the plan is – your body first burns carbohydrates, when it can not find any then it burns fat using stored fat to provide the protein energy.
So what happens is that when you eliminate carbohydrates in your system your body looks to protein to burn to provide energy. And in the process use lots of fat. This causes you to lose weight and lose it fast.
