Guys, hi to all of you,
I'm not that interested in calories. How may I edit my personal fitness pal to go Atkins with me? Any thoughts greatly appreciated.

Out of curiosity, why Atkins ?0

I have been low carb and often keto levels for years. You will lose initially(water weight) but if you want to keep consistently losing I suggest also counting calories. Low carb controls my migraines and in general my head and body feel awesome. But I have both lost and gained eating this way. Recent gains have pushed me to need to lose a bit again so instead of just eating in the guidelines of low carb, I set myself up to count calories again. It is your best bet for continued success.6
