** Join the contest by visiting a short survey link below: www.surveymonkey.com (Entries due by 9/30/2010) ** ***Join the Atkins Diet Video Facebook fan page -bit.ly *** I recently discovered this pizza crust on Jennifer Eloff’s blog (low-carb-news.blogspot.com and it quickly became my new favorite crust. What makes for a good pizza crust? Like I said in the video, it has to first taste great, and second it has be able to eaten without a fork and not be floppy. This recipe easily meets both of the requirements. If you are still on Induction, I will put an “Induction friendly” substitute recipe at the below as well. It’s good, but a little less rigid. Best Low Carb Pizza Crust 8 oz Shredded Cheese 1/3 cup Butter 1 egg white 1/2 cup Low Carb Bake Mix (Recipe Below) Combine and cook for 10mins @ 375 degrees Top with favorite toppings and bake another 15-20 minutes @ 400 degrees.

What a great episode Bill and Clarissa! I’m catching up on some of the back episodes and I was especially touched by Eric’s Transformation story. As a father of 3 children and someone who has lost my family (and basically everything else), I saw so much of my own story in Eric’s. In gaining his life back through his Transformation, Eric gives me hope in my own future as I transform myself into the person I can be, instead of the person I had become.
I absolutely LOVE the radiating smiles from each of you!!!… Eric’s story is amazing and so uplifting!!
Fantastic reminders of the choices and decisions i can make through out every day! Thanks so much Bill and Clarissa and of course Eric, too! Tac
High-fat, animal sources of food are more natural to man’s diet than low-fat, processed plant foods. Studies come out all the time that suggest that our current way of eating, which involves a much higher proportion of carbohydrates than our agrarian ancestors even ate, is detrimental to health on so many levels.
@stormiebleu I have heard of it, but not tried it. I like a crispy crust and I hear it is more pan like.
@cromerbeach Are you missing the point? Atkins is a high fat, low carb diet. If you are worried about cholesterol or heart trouble, your concerns are mislaid. Watch my cholesterol video for more details. All my heart risk factors disappeared. My cholesterol essentially dropped by 50 points. my triglyceride dropped while my HDL (good) cholesterol went up.
high fat
Butter and pepperoni not good
I’m wondering have you tried the cauliflower pizza dough before? i heard it is awesome
@Neonbelly99 Tried simply moderation for many years and no success. What are you guarding against with the butter and cheese — which is limited on the diet? Have you actually read the diet? My cholesterol has dropped nearly 50 points since starting the diet as well as losing 211 pounds.
Low carb does not necessarily mean good for you. People eat low carb junk food all the time. Low carb prepared like Atkins wanted prepared (real food) is good for you.
How can a mountain of cheese and butter be healthy for you…low carb does not mean good for you. Moderation is always king
@patti04005 Yes, I essentially made this recipe just this week with almond flour and a little whey protein powder, and it turned out great.
@bowulf:
Hi I was wondering do you think I could just use almond flour for this instead of making the baking mix? Love all your videos!
Great video!
Im going to put some of the christmas pounds behind me and wanted to figure out how to do it, and this certainly looks a lot more healthy and just as jummy as the casual home made pizza! im going to try this recepie on saturday! Keep up the good work!
@bowulf That is what I’m hoping for. It’s nice to know I’m not alone. Thanks.
@angpeace55 That was usually how the weight came off for me — in very fits and spurts rather than a consistent method. Every day weight loss is nice, but consistency generally breeds success in the long run too.
@bowulf:
Thanks for this video. I made it and it came out pretty good. I’m not doing the Atkins diet but I am trying to consume the healthier carbs in fruits and veggies instead of breads. I seem to get a bit “stuck” at a certain weight for a while, I’ll feel the inches coming off and then boom the scale shows I’m 10lbs lighter. Not sure if you encountered this in your weight loss. Curious on your opinion.
I’ve lose 53lbs so far. I’m 5’3 weighing 150 right now. Aiming for at least 130.
@Messweather I appreciate all my viewers ESPECIALLY those who take the time to write in their non-native language to tell me they like my videos. I am always pleased to know how universal the low carb lifestyle is, and actually have quite a few viewers from Scandinavian and Norway countries. (They’re typically ranked 4th or 5th in countries receiving views.) Thanks for subscribing!
Hey bowolf!:) thank you for this video, i think i have seen it five times. And every time i had to search youtube like crazy to find it, so this time i subscribed so i wont get in that situation again, haha! anyway, i have been on and off with the low carb diet for about two years now and there is no doubt that my body feels a lot better on it! Anyway, just wantet to say hey from norway, and to tell you that you got a new subscriber! ( who will write comments in really bad english;)
@IrishFig Congrats on your success. That is impressive!
I’m 15, 5’6 and used to be 180 lbs but am now 122 lbs
Thanks atkins ;D
@nobodyitellyou Thank you!
@openuniverse2003 Are you talking about glucomannen or konjac flour? I have never personally used it in other than noodles, which I was not too impressed with it.
@loribelt24 I do have a few soup recipes coming, but life is getting in the way of making a number of recipe videos lately. I should have one coming out tonight, and hopefully more soon. I think some of the nasty comments are not typically posted on my videos as it is hard to argue with success, but some try.
@minipops77 I am however sorry to hear about your problems.
@minipops77 There are multiple studies that demonstrate the falsehood of the saturated fats equal heart attack claims by some people. I have a video posted on Youtube that talks about this issue and cholesterol, but the short answer is absent the presence of sugar, saturated fats as found in Atkins do not affect one’s cholesterol negatively.
My own cholesterol has dropped 50 points since starting the diet while my good cholesterol has increased. All my heart risk factors are gone.
The amount of saturated fat in that must be huuuge. I did Atkin’s and lost roughly 100 pounds. Started at 30 years old. By 35 years old i was in the hospital with massive coronary blockages and the result was 6 stents. 5 stents in the RCA and 1 in the left, and extensive blockage throughout my heart. I’m not saying it was the Atkin’s diet alone, but 35 year’s old and having the blockage of a 70 year old, makes you say hmmmmm…….
this looks yummy what whey protein do you use. I notice a lot of people bake with whey protein maybe you can get some of those videos out there or soup for the long winter ahead
thanks for all your hard work – I haven’t seen any nasty comments on this site but have on others I am not sure why people act that way but I guess we have to learn to ignore them THANKS again for all your hard work hope cookbook sales are going well. I do have to get a copy and intend to order it soon
