My recommended diet for fat loss!

Basically Folks, I recommend the Atkins Diet. This diet is actually very easy and quite enjoyable to follow. Eliminate all starches from your dietary selections, no bread, rice, pasta, nor potatoes. Limit your fruit to a small portion of only the freashest (in season) varieties lowest in sugar contect (no bananas or pineapple). Eat all the vegetables you can stand, and eat all sorts of meats, cheeses, whole eggs. Your breakfast can be an omelete, your lunch can be a grilled chicken caeser salad, snack on nuts such as almonds or macadamia and supper can be a juicy steak and a side of brocolli! Desert can be sugar free jello and sugar free cool-whip. A diet such as this one will cause your body to lose fat! Trust me on this, it will! Atkins rocks! Atkins diet is the Bomb, Baby!
