I've lost weight on both Atkins and WW in the past. Atkins was quick and the gain back up was even quicker. But it was also easier to follow since when I get stressed my mind jumbles up and it's hard to focus and journal/count.

Any former Atkins members here? What made you switch?

I too did Atkins, and quite well with it. I have a 5 year old daughter which has really became a picky eater..when she eats at all. So now Im giving WW a whirl because I want her to eat a wide variety of good foods and maybe try something new.

I switched because it caused renal failure in a close friend (one I call a sister).

Wow, renal failure. That's scary! I will say when I did Atkins I ate lean meats. But the ketosis part of it is pretty freaky.
