? about the atkins diet..?

I am not fond of the atkins diet. It is a quick fix and does not apply to everyday life. It is a popular diet but you cut out too many vital foods. It is your choice but I think you would have better luck using the food pyramid. It tells you what your body needs and how much. Eat small portions of everything your body needs frequently and drink lots of water. sorry I did not answer your question. I was a victim of gaining back all of the weight I lost with atkins. You just cant eat that way all the time. I was more successful with the food pyramid
