Hello all. Can anyone tell me something about the Atkins diet that I hear so much about....what you can eat, how it's worked for you, etc? I'd be eternally grateful. Please email me at [email protected]

Thanks so much!!!!!

Vera, scroll on down to "LOW CARB LIFESTYLE"
and look around, read the threads there. There are lots of people who are having sucess with reducing carbs in their diet either by Atkins or other reduced carb plans.

You can ask specific questions there and get responses from many knowlegable and experienced "low carbers." There are some people trying to combine WW points and LC, by eating at the top of their point range, and increasing their protein and eliminating or at least restricting sugar and refined carbs, you know, pasta and bread and cookies.

Hope this helped!
