i am on the atkins, i want to quit coz i cant stand meat anymre.but i dont want!
Question:
can i eat fruit,veg and soya products and not gain the weight back?
Answers:
Gradually start adding back sensible carbohydrates. No white sugar, no white rice, no white potatoes, no white bread. But you can eat more vegetables and fruit, and monitor your weight so you don't start eating something that makes you gain. This would make your diet more like the South Beach diet.

Eat a balanced diet. Talk with a dietitian. Limit your intake and you won't gain the weight back.
Yes, you can, and there is no need to eat meet on the Atkins. My way is everything in moderation. You can eat everything - as long as you don't eat to much of anything. It works for me. Also, don't starve your body for more than 4-5 hours. This way you'll make your body relax and increase metabolism cause your body will not keep more fat "for a rainy day".
You need to avoid any processed carbs, i.e. sugar, white flour, white rice etc. Adding whole grain products slowly back into your diet, together with veggies/soy would be a good idea, but no fruit, to high in sugar.
Ask yourself this question: Why did you go on Atkins to begin with? Probably because you wanted to lose weight, perhaps because because you needed to for health reasons. I was on the diet a couple of years ago and had very good success. However, the choices can get boring. But it is a truly great diet and one on which you can succeed.
Stick with the veggies and soy.
