1. The Benefits of Low carb Diet
As the saying goes. You can never be too rich or too thin! The American vision of beauty is of a tall thin
body. And that is the goal a lot of us work toward (well the thinness, we can’t do anything about it if we
are short!)

many people though, patience is not a virtue. They seem not to have the ability to afford so much

What CAN help you lose weight rapidly
If you have ever seen an episode of My 600 lb life. You will find that the doctor on the show
immediately puts the patient on a low carb diet to help them rapidly lose enough weight for surgery.
I don’t think there is a person on the planet that hasn’t heard of the Atkins diet. Its one of the oldest
low carb diets that dates back to the early 70s and was created by a Dr. Robert Atkins. To help his
clients lose weight rapidly. He would reduce their carb intake to less than 20 grams of carbs a day which
would force the clients body into ketosis. This is generally called the atkins diet phase 1. There are
four phases in total. But most people stay in phase 1 for most of their weight loss and move on to
the other phases as they get close to their weight loss goals.
Ketosis is the process of using your stored fat for fuel! Wow, what a great thing that is! Especially if you
have a lot of “fuel” around your belly!
Rapid Inch Loss
When you force your body into ketosis. Some people don’t experience the rapid weight loss. Some of
them experience a rapid inch loss. Especially around the belly! That’s why its recommended that when
you start a low carb diet you don’t’ only take note of your weight. But take your measurements. You
will be surprised at how fast your waistline starts to come back!
