Atkins Fat Fast Acceptable Food

The Fat Fast is a controlled carb program where you count calories. It was made for metabolically resistant people who can barely lose weight on any other diet. It can be dangerous for people who lose weight fairly easily on any diet because the rate of weight loss is too rapid to be safe.

1. Atkins Fat Fast Acceptable Food:

When to do the Fat Fast:

Dr. Atkins said: “Let’s make it clear that the Fat Fast is actually
dangerous for anyone who is not metabolically resistant. For people
who lose weight fairly easily, the rate of weight loss is too rapid to be
safe. But it carries very little risk for people who can barely lose on any
other regimen. The reason why I ask such people to try the Fat Fast is to
let them know that it is possible to lose weight.” (Atkins, Robert C. Dr
Atkins’ New Diet Revolution. New York, 2002. 272-274.)
