I live in Tehran/Nuuk/Suva/Nicosia/Tombouctou, and low-carb breakfast bars, low-carb bread, and low-carb candy are not available here. So that means I can go on Atkins, right?
I lost my weight in 2001 – about two years before the magnificent boom of low-carb cereals and packaged cookies came about – and had no trouble whatsoever losing the weight. You see, these low-carb goodies are allowable treats on Atkins – but certainly not a necessity for low-carb weight loss. I limit treats like these, which I bake myself, to just 3 days a week, and focus mainly on natural, unprocessed whole foods on all other days of the week. This worked for me while losing weight, and continues to work for me in Maintenance. But please remember that low-carb treats are still treats and should be treated as such – and not with every meal, every single day … or worse, in the place of meals! With regard to the ability to do Atkins in a non-U.S. country: if fresh vegetables and low-glycemic fruits like berries/melon are made available, as well as adequate, fresh meats and nuts, then an Atkins lifestyle is entirely and 100% possible.
