I have been doing this diet for almost a year. I did have a slide over the summer but I was still able to cut carbs and thought about what i ate. I only gained a few pounds during that time and have now lost a total of over 60 lbs. I have tried low-cal, low-fat, and many other diets and i can't stick to them and lose weight. I feel successful on this one and I really don't feel that hungry. Your body adjusts. I give it an A.

The only really bad thing I can say about this diet is that its really easy to fall out of it!! But having had great success and then stopping and regaining all the lost weight I now have a comparison as to how good I can feel on this diet. This is the only diet I can honestly say I really feel better doing it than not! So its back to low carbing, the food is great, meals can be as quick and easy as you want. Do read and understand how the diet works and you will love it!!

My Opinion
6 of 6 people found this review helpful
I tried the diet for the first time in 2001. It was very easy to follow and I lost 40lbs in 3 months still occasionally eating sugar. 4 years later I got married and it was hard to maintain because my husband didn't eat the way I did, soon the temptation overwhelmed me and I gained back the 40lbs. I have been off an on the diet for the last year and I can say that I feel awful when I am off and consuming all the sugar and junk!! I also have arthritis in my hips which bothers me only when I cheat

The Atkins diet helped me lose the 40 pounds I gained during pregnancy. I didn't realize how great I felt on the diet until I hit my goal weight and started eating a lot of carbs again. Within a day, I felt sluggish and had a headache. I chose to follow the maintenance plan because I feel terrific. I've also had normal results at the doctor with blood work, etc. It's a healthy way to eat for life!!!!

Atkins for Life
7 of 8 people found this review helpful
I have been on Atkins for over a year and have lost over 76 pounds. This has become a way of life for me. I maintain a very low daily carb intake the majority of the time but am not a fanatic & do eat a few more some days than others. I love eggs, meat & cheese & am not a big veggie lover. I do like fruit but am satisfied with berries. A low carb crustless pumpkin pie with SF whipped cream is a real treat. The Atkins bars & shakes are great. My lab work keeps getting better & I feel great
