If OP went low carb then yes he'd most likely lose a few pounds of water weight initially. I'm assuming he wants to lose actual fat though.
You lose fat on Atkins, I am not talking about water weight.14 -

You claimed he would lose the last few pounds overnight. Atkins or not that loss is not fat, it is water weight. Yes, you can lose fat on Atkins, but such a loss would be the result of a calorie deficit and you do not need to eat low carb or unprocessed food to achieve that.
Edited to add: Unless you're growing your own produce and killing/milking your own livestock, all the food you purchase and consume is processed in one way or another. So, one cannot simply "unprocess" their diet without eliminating most if not all foods from it.11 -

You said in your other post that OP would lose his last few pounds overnight by switching to Atkins. Since OP wants to lose 10lbs, are you seriously claiming that he'll lose 10lbs of FAT overnight?8 -
You can only lose 10 pounds of fat overnight by using a chainsaw!8

Yes, you have to continue the calorie deficit.
Unprocessing your diet means that you should only eat things that grow or need sunlight. It means you eat clean and stop eating things with really long ingredient lists of a bunch of crap in it, like protein bars and PROCESSED foods.14 -

You may not have meant what you wrote, but other people do write things like that here (and mean them sincerely). You can't fault people for thinking you might have meant OP would quickly lose ten pounds of fat just by switching to Atkins/low carbohydrate diet du jour.9 -

You can be overweight on a diet of unprocessed foods. You can be slender while eating things like protein bars.
Weight is related to calorie intake relative to activity, not the level of processing foods have undergone.10 -

If you didn't actually mean what you typed out, then why did you say it? You literally said Op would lose his last few pounds overnight by doing Atkins. And then further claimed that it would be fat losses. We can only go off of what you are literally posting-we're not mind readers, nor are we 'dumb'. You're the one who's posting misinformation, not us.

Yes, to be successful at Atkins 40 or ANY DIET at all, you have to have the calorie deficit and you also have to be active.
I guess I assumed the people here all use the app to count calories, achieve proper nutrition, and log exercise...

You edited your original post, haha.
The quote option is being weird on the forums right now. My pp is quoted correctly now.2 -

To lose weight, you do need a calorie deficit. That, however, wasn't what you recommended. You recommended the Atkins diet and eliminating processed foods, two things that are completely optional for weight loss (as is activity, although it's certainly great for fitness).13
