Thinking of switching to the Beach
I'm on Atkins, nearing the end of a 2-week induction. My weight loss has been slow but I'm okay with that. The plan has been wonderful for breaking my cravings for carb-laden foods. The problem is I have headaches every single day, I've yet to feel that promised renewed energy, and now that the novelty has worn off, I'm starting to find the food options restrictive. I long for a piece of sprouted grains bread or some toasted almonds on my salad. I also have a hard time getting in the recommended amount of fat so that may account for the slow weight loss.
It would be great to hear from someone who's done both plans. Do you find SB easier or harder, and are you having more or less success with it than with Atkins?
