Anyone doing Atkins, and how to incorporate it here?

I am having trouble consistently logging in. I get started, and then as the day goes by the individual foods I am eating is too hard to calculate. I gave up between Thanksgiving and Christmas completely. Of course I gained 7 pounds! Last week I ran into two friends my age (68) who lost 50 pounds each on Atkins. I want to try Atkins. I signed up for their website, but it seems it is merely a business venture where they want you to buy Adkins products. I got the book, the New Diet Revolution, and am getting prepared to start this. But I don't know how I am going to record this here if all I need to do is count carbs. Is there anyone who could both encourage and help me in this? I've tried every diet known to man and am still terribly overweight because of carb addiction.

I'm in the same boat. I just log everything in. And adjust me nutrient goals to have higher fat and 5-6 percent carbs. Hoping for the best. All I know is that in never hungry and feel so satisfied on what I'm eating. Only once in 6 days have I gone over on calories MFP set for me, which is 1590.
I am trying to overcome carb addiction too. (Mainly tortillas and bread, nor sweets)
