South Beach
While I was actively on SBD I found that I lost 6 lbs without even really trying. You are supposed to cut out all carbs in phase one due to the fact that any breads, pasta, potatoes, etc, will cause u to gain the weight back a lot faster than while still eating them in moderation. If someone can give me GOOD pros/cons of Akins vs SBD, I’d be more than happy to check it out. BUT, since everyone just loves to bitch and cut ppl down (indirectly), then I won’t even bother.
Everyone has their own opinions, and should be free to express them. I admit that I am close-minded about Atkins- I’ve heard that it can cause health probs, and quite frankly, a diet like that is NOT worth my time.
Like I said, pros/cons lol
DECENT ones.
Meat Crust Pizza
Preheat oven to 350
Brown 2 pounds (extra lean) ground beef.
Put cooked ground beef in a large bowl & mix well with 2 cups of
mozzarella cheese.
Spray cookie sheet or a baking stone with Pam.
Spread mixture out like a pizza crust on the cookie sheet or a baking stone.
Put 1 cup pizza sauce on top of the meat crust/mixture. Ragu is ok -
check carb count. Pizza sauce is ok as long as there is no sugar in it!
Top with 1-2 cups of shredded mozzarella.
Top with Canadian bacon and/or pepperoni slices
Add onions, peppers, olives, anything legal that you like on pizza.
Cook 15 minutes. or until the top of the cheese starts to brown.
Put foil on rack below to catch any drippings.
