Since I've been on Atkins and I'm going straight into Phase 1 of SBD, should I jungle run for a day or two? I know this sounds stupid but I thought, is this really going to be a shock to my system. I would like the P1 results and I'm afraid that if I'm just tweaking my current plan it probably won't change my weight dramatically nor will it cleanse a body that's already been cleansed of bad carbs and sugars... ??

Sorry, I'm bumping...

I'm serious, should I have some junk for a couple of days so that P1 of SBD actually works. Right now since I'm coming straight from Atkins I have nothing in my body to detox from???

Hmmmmm. That is an interesting question. The only change that you might really be making from transitioning from Atkins to SBD is to lessen the amount of fat that you are eating and adding more vegetables/beans.

This is just my opinion ----- why add back the bad carbs and have to go through detox again. I would just do Phase 1 ---- you may not see the 8-14 lbs., but you already lost the big jump that water weight can cause by being on Atkins before.

This is just my opinion.
