I do like the good nights sleep.

I read in the Power Protein book that over time our bodies can heal and not be so reactive; I would like to beleive this is true, though Atkins doesn't mention it. Will know in the years to come after I get to goal weight. THough technically, no carbs are needed. Adding more meats and fats can also keep one's body at a level and continuous body weight. Carbs just make for complications.


I'm pretty sure our bodies can become more sensitive to insulin. That's why people who have lost weight can often decrease or cease their medication, even if they are still eating carbs. Duken mentions that after a while of avoiding/limiting carbs, our bodies can respond better.

Here's hoping!
