Fat Loss Program - South Beach Diet and Atkins

The Atkins Fat Loss Program relies on eating few carbs.
I believe that it is one of the strictest lo-carb diets on the market, especially during "Phase 1".
There is no mistaking this program for anything apart from an extremely stern lo-carb plan, since it only authorizes 80 carb calories each day in the first phase (20 grams of net carbohydrates is approximately 80 carb calories every day) and that's less carbs than you can find in a massive apple, since even a big apple has a touch more carbs than that.
Phase one of the Atkins Diet is now listed as 'optional' - but even if Phase one is skipped I still are convinced the overall carb limitations make it an extremely stern low carbohydrate diet.
This program isn't for the faint of heart, since only actually committed dieters will often be in a position to bear Phase one of this program.
While you may probably shed pounds with this type of diet, the real benefit is in controlling and lowering your blood sugar levels so that your insulin answer can be fixed, What about the South Beach Diet? The South Beach diet is also a cruel low carbohydrate program, especially in the initial phase.
Though perhaps not as humorless as the Atkins program.
For example, I have observed the higher carb foods (on the South Beach menu) are severely limited in portions in the 1st segment of the diet and this stops the standard quantity of carbs from being eaten in the 1st phase.
Honestly, virtually all the foods which dieters may be able to eat in "unlimited portions" (during phase one) are protein foods and super-low-calorie veggies.
For example, the South Beach menu authorizes unlimited lettuce during phase one yet it constricts the portions of "tomatoes" and "onions" and "peanuts" as these are high carb plants.
In addition, the "sweet snacks" which are authorized on the South Beach menu are limited to a trivial 75 calories each day during phase one.
So though the South Beach program isn't as humorless as the Atkins diet, it is my perspective that both Fat Loss Programs are sensibly cruel low carbohydrate programs -- and I suspect that both plans will be fairly tough to follow for average dieters who are not really committed, especially during Phase one.
Also, both these diets have no "end" in sight since both the Atkins plan and the South Beach diet never permit dieters to come back to a typical carb lifestyle (where carbs don't have to be closely studied).
Both these diets do gradually permit more carbs to be eaten as time goes by, but even after half a year dieters are still told to watch their carb intake to some degree each day, and both diets seem to need an entire life commitment of some sort.
So it's a permanent lifestyle change which is mandatory by these diets, and many dieters could find it difficult to never be in a position to enjoy their favorite carb-filled cafe meals which can be eaten absolutely "as served", and without any limitations.
So overall I suspect that both diets are not extremely practical for average dieters who are not one hundred percent committed to making great sacrifices for time, since many people will find it difficult to modify their complete lifestyle once and for all.
I am against using the South Beach and Atkins programs for the general dieting public, for the reasons printed above.
