Anyone doing Atkins? If so, how's it going? I was thinking about trying it for a while -just wondering if anyone had tried it and had success?

I would strongly suggest you read "Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution" to see if this is something that you would want to commit to. There are other low carb plans out there, I just personally find that I need the structure of Atkins. South Beach is another wonderful plan that is a bit looser with variation. It's great, you should check out several before you decide, just to make your journey smoother.
There are several people here who do low carb and have been successful. That's what motivated me to restart this way of life.
You can also try www.lowcarbfriends.com . It's loaded with tons of info and lots of success stories for various plans. Many are from Atkins.
Goodluck to you in whatever you decide to do.

(waves at mom2morgan- Hi over there!)
I appreciate everyone's advice and hope people on the board won't be too judgmental of peoples decisions. I think we are all here to provide support, no matter what. I think each of us has a "battle" to fight and as long as we win, it shouldn't matter how we do it. Everyone is different.
Thanks again!!!
Atkins Nutritional Eating has been around for more than 20 years and no longer qualified for "fad diet status".
My doctor and cardiologist won't put me on it because I am too active. I will need those carbs to keep going and not burn out my body. I also don't eat as many carbs as others.
I don't doubt that it works for others. I have friends who lost a significant amount of weigt on it, but for me it is not recommended.
