The Atkins’ Diet
First invented by doctor atkins in the sixities, the atkins diet is still widely used today. Having many well known film stars amongst its supporters, it allows fat reduction whilst still eating many foods that are not normally available to dieters, like fatty meat and hard cheese. With the atkins diet you eat protein and fat, it is the carbs that must be avoided. It is often referred to as a low carbohydrate/high protein, weight loss program. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including cereals and pasta made from white flour. On the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat continues to be nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish and poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and olive oil.

Approved foods include, broiled ham, skinless poultry, seafood, low or fat free cheeses, peanut butter, lowfat or nonfat milk and certain vegetables, such as artichokes, broccoli and mushrooms.
