Bottom Line
People complain the diet pushes too much red meat and cheese. Although Atkins was a big deal back in the day, it’s just not in the same league with today’s top diets like Medifast or Nutrisystem.

Atkins Diet Reviews

While I did lose weight on Atkins, all that extra protein was too hard on my kidneys and I suffered kidney stones. On the advice of my doctor I had to stop the Atkins regimen.

Atkins worked great for me and my husband. His cholesterol went from a whopping 460 (on 80 mg lipitor and Ornish and PRitikin) to 165 with a better ratio too. My triglycerides went from 1500 to 100. We both lost over 30 pounds in a few months . The only problem was that we craved fruit in the summer. We then found that berries and melon seemed to be ok. Don't use the atkins bars. Use regular food and don't use "low carb" snack junk food and it is great. There was just an article in the NY Times about how the false rumors that fats were bad. (trans fats are the only bad fat) Check it out in the times how bad rumors start and why Atkins continues to work despite the food pyramid--it was all from a game of doctors playing "telephone"
