    Did you read the first thing I posted on this discussion page? I was looking for support and knowledge from actual people who have been on the diet because I have been shamed by friends and family for wanting to do the Atkins! So that being said I was looking for positive feedback, not people trying to correct me or throw jabs at me because I said "a pound of bacon"

    If you are looking for SUPPORT only - then use my recommendation for the Adkins group ( 2nd post - link above). Users & supporters can be found there.

    Most people in the forum are not Adkins users. Posting to the general forum is going to get you all kinds of opinions, both negative & positive. You can't ask for opinions (in a general forum) & then dictate, what you want them to be. Good luck

    I did Atkins for about 6 months and lost a good amount of weight but found that it was unsustainable for me because I did a lot of cardio and needed the carbs to support my energy outputs. It does work but it all depends on your lifestyle, your body and what you can mentally accept as far as food restrictions.
