Hi everyone
Just wanted to recommend this BBC documentary. All about Atkins..very worth a watch! Especially if you're new to the low-carb world like me and need some extra info :)

    Thanks for the link, and welcome to low-carb BryonyKate. I think this is a good documentary on Atkins, but the conclusion at the end about protein might lead people to start eating too much protein... It is mentioned in the Atkins books and keto ones too that too much protein will be turned into fat by the body, so beware! Find the right balance for you. Low carb is the only way I have ever lost weight!
    Here is another good source for low carb information that I have used http://forum.lowcarber.org/.

    Thanks for the welcome :) I thought the same thing! I Actually posted the link when I was about 3/4 the way through the documentary then the ending I was like "oh..didn't expect that!" haha. I tried high protein (about 50% protein a day) and it just didnt work for me at all
