I am not an expert on diets at all, but I think the reason that people fail on their diets is that they think it is so strict. I do not think of myself on a "diet," I just dont eat shit. And I am still making good gains. I have lost about 40 punds, and have made steady increase in strength and size. I read about all of these kinds of diets, maybe I am just not into it as much as other people, maybe I am dumb about it. I can see people who are absolutely religious about weight lifting (and I do not mean just dedicated, I mean those that want to compete) going and doing those sort of diets, but i just recomend eating better, cut the shit out, and eat basic, good stuff.

But also the reason so many fail is that they completely cut that stuff out that they love so much, like cake and cookies and things like that. I plan a cheat day every two weeks, where I can eat whatever and not feel guilty. I do not go completely wild on these days, because I have lost some of the cravings for most things.

And yes I do realize none of you will read this because it is a damn novel.

I've only ever tried high protein, low fat, low carb diets....

.... and they've worked okay.

No idea how much muscle I lose each time, though.

Completely cutting out cookies, chips, sweets, etc. is what has made me not want them. I think most people would be suprised at what they can live without and don't really need if they'd just go 2 - 3 weeks without it. Abstenince is what breaks most people from addictions, and most sweets are not just a "favorite", they are a food addiction. Its like telling a alcoholic "1 beer is ok" and a chain smoker that "1 smoke won't kill you".

Hell, if my tubby butt can make it for 4 1/2 months without: Cookies, Cake, Ice Cream, Potatoe Chips, French Fries, Soft Drinks, Caffiene, Pizza, Taco's etc, then theres NO excuse for anyone to not be able to give those things up.

Cravings are the first sign of addiction.....for ANYTHING.

Uh, 1 more thing to add, i still don't see why people thing you lose muscle mass on Atkins. esp. seeing how my muscle mass has gone up. I hear that same line of BS CONSTANTLY, and, i for one, should be considered proof that with half decent exercise you can put on muscle while eating the Atkins way.

The only time your body is going to burn muscle for energy is when you are fasting and carb/fat intake is low. This makes sense since your body doesn't have a source of fuel coming in. A fat can be burned for energy just like a carb. In fact, 1 lipid molecule produces what, twice the energy of a carbohydrate? The break-down process and release of ATP just takes longer.
