\"Atkins<\/a>The actress best known for her roles on Melrose Place<\/em> and According to Jim<\/em>, Courtney Thorne-Smith became a spokesperson for Atkins<\/a> about two years ago. She’s even signed on for her third year, according to a press release<\/a> published two days ago.<\/p>\n

Thorne-Smith says she struggled with her weight for many years and tried many diet plans. In the end, the low-carb<\/a>, high-protein Atkins diet plan worked for her. She’s been in the “maintenance” phase of the Atkins diet for the past ten years.<\/p>\n

She argues that people shouldn’t confuse the nearly-no-carb “Induction” phase of the diet for the whole plan. “When I finally went back and read the Atkins book, I was able to figure out what I needed to eat in order to be my own food judge. I eat a plant-based diet, and no starch or sugar,” Courtney told ThatsFit<\/a>. She does allow herself to cheat on special occasions: “Of course, like on my son’s first birthday, I had a piece of cake. It’s just a rare treat, so to balance it out, I won’t have as much fruit the next day.”<\/p>\n
