    Atkins. The 00s low carb diet. How did people do it?

    When I finally broke, I put steamed rice and French fries on a cheese pizza and rolled it up and ate it.

      There’s a “modern” version of the Atkins diet, the keto diet. Same rules as far as I can tell, just rebranded. I went nuts. I couldn’t stop thinking about bread. Sound of it, smell of it, taste of it… It haunted me day and night. I’d often find myself looking up bread maker reviews, comparing different bread makers on Amazon… Don’t remember what I had when I finally gave up, wasn’t nearly as awesome what you did. But I can tell you I did not buy a bread maker afterwards.
