I've never tried it because I just can't believe that it's safe. I'm not doubting that it's effective, I've just heard too many reports of people seriously hurting themselves on it.
Even if I hadn't heard about them, I wouldn't even try Atkins - I'm a PASTA LOVER FOR LIFE!

I was on it for a few months and I noticed a big difference in the amount of inches I lost, but I didnt notice any weight come off which was strange. I had to stop the Atkins diet because I was always getting stomach aches. I guess it was from the large amount of protien and high fat that I was taking in.

The first week is the worst in any low carb diet. My body really goes through withdrawal. In the end, you tend to lose belly weight first which makes it totally worth it
Good Luck with whatever you decide

low carb is ok, but i would never recommend a diet that prohibits/limits food (that are healthy for your body, like veggies and fruits) but allows unlimite fatty food like creams and red meats and cheese.
plus you eat a roll and you defeated the efforts and the shift is energy fuel burning (the whole basis of atkins) won't occur.
We smart and portion control.

I started Atkins on Wednesday and by Sunday I was a mess. I was so emotional for some reason (not PMS). My FI had really bad headaches. Even though I need to lose like 5 - 7 lbs by Jan. I know I won't be able to stay on Atkins anymore. i think I'll just eat smart, cut out the junk food and fast food and exercise more.

I hated Atkins. I felt terrible on it and it did not work for me. I have the best success with WW.

I think ATKINS is the absolute worst diet out there. I mean, why is it that you can eat bacon and yet cannot eat a slice of whole wheat bread. I eat carbs, but I make a conscious decision to eat good, complex carbs. I think you shoudl try to go with something reasonable that you can live with for the REST of your life. Many people have had success with weight watchers. I think that in order to lose weight for the long term, a reasonable eating style is necessary !!

I had the same experience with South Beach. I was an emotional WRECK! I was edgy and anxious, (borderline panic), short tempered and wicked. Too bad I couldn't stick with it, I lost 4 lbs in less than a week, but it wasn't worth it.
