    I have lost almost 190 pounds on Atkins
  • WOW congrats! I sent add friend request :)
  • hi ya. Currently doing atkins and lost about 1.5 st but was missing using a tracker so I've just signed up to MFP to run alongside my atkins diet. Obviously this site isn't just for those on Atkins so I've just decided to start trawling the forums as they are very interesting. Its nice to see other Atkinsers on here as well.

    Yeh, join up, it's a friendly bunch in there.

    I'm not doing Atkins but I'm low (adequate ;)) carb.

    I'm 6 months in, progress is good, heading for maintenance soon (ticker hasn't been updated in ages, I'm just not weight-focussed any more).

    Welcome!!

    I started off doing Atkins, but haven't really been strict about it. but I have read the book well and am basically following it. I went straight to 30 grams net the first week and soon after added berries and such and have been at 40-50 net grams for the last several months.

    i tried it 8 years ago, and it worked well, but I didn't have the drive to continue with it for very long.

    How did you get your carbs to set at 20
  • I've lost 54lbs on Atkins. Although the success, I'm not really a fan of it. As it creates hardcore cravings for me. I much enjoy the low calorie diet.
