What is the Best Recommended Diet Before Undergoing a Laser Lipo? Would Atkins Work in This Case?

The Atkins diet is not needed in this case.  Avoid fast food, hydrogenated fat, saturated fat, avoid cream cheese, butter, cheese, excess oils, eat only olive oil, lean protein, fish, grilled chicken, turkey, avoid deli meats,  a lot of fruits and vegetables (fresh), whole grains,  nuts and seeds.

In my opinion, Fad diets are doomed to fail. The only diet that works is one you can stick to for the rest of your life. Research shows that the only way to lose weight is to take in less calories (food) than you spend (exercise). Once you lose weight, you also have to decrease your caloric intake just to maintain your reduced weight. Research has also shown some small changes you can make which statistically have been correlated with long term weight loss success.1. Eat a healthy breakfast daily.2. Exercise at least 1 hour per day3. Watch less than 10 hours of tv per week4. Weigh yourself once a week.Sounds simple enough but statistics show that these measures work long term.A healthy diet and lifestyle are essential. Laser liposuction can then take care of your problem areas.

Many people fluctuate in weight because of the extreme diets they attempt then can't maintain.  Although weight will be lost quickly, it also be put back on just as fast afterwards.  I know that everyone is tired of hearing this but more important than any particular "diet" is a "lifestyle change".   Small changes that you can maintain for the rest of your life, may take longer to lose weight, but will give you better results in the long run.   Even something as simple as eating smaller portions and walking half a mile a day will be effective.  That can easily be done by eating half of your normal meals that you currently take without changing any of the foods you like.  NO special shopping, NO special foods required.  Keep in mind, a 1 pound weight loss per week equals fifty pounds in one year.  And chances are, you'll keep that weight off.
