    I'm on day 7 of Atkins and I've lost 10lbs. I did Atkins about 8 years ago before I had my daughter and lost 100lbs in a year with excercise but I was ver strict and motivated. Now having a child it's much harder but I am determined!

    Wow- 100lb? That is amazing!! No wonder you are back on it, and doing so well!! I lost 3stone on it a few years ago. Now I go running, so my carb intake has gone up and up. I recently read an article on the myths about carb loading, and I am trying Atkins again xxx

    I did the Atkins diet last summer for about 6 weeks. I lost 17 lbs with no exercise but I found it just to limiting and I wasn't happy so I didn't stick with it. I got a Fitbit Flex this in June and I've lost 20 lbs by just walking and watching my calories. I find this is much easier to stick to and I feel much better than when I was on Atkins. Atkins does work it just isn't the diet for me.

    I've done it a long time ago but I think it's since been revamped - I did lose well on it though but found the very very low carb just wasn't sustainable. Now, I'm prediabetic and have to watch the carbs. so I eat a lower carb higher fat diet (about 60-120g carbs a day - usually more like 60).

    Thank you! I gained almost all of it back when I got pregnant and then it's just been piliing on. I'm hoping to be able to do it again and keep it off this time!
