I think the Atkins requires a lot of self discipline to really get good results - which is ironic, because the reason why most of the people gained so much weight was due to a lack of self discipline.
Yeah that happens while your blood sugar is up there. The book says eventually you lower your blood sugar and you don't have those cravings so much anymore. I do atkins every year or so after the holidays and I can vouch for that. It does get much easier as you go along.
