Atkins works for people who use it. They are just pointing out the population on a whole is not losing weight. In other words, the people who are not on atkins are not losing weight.

Actually, I know people on Atkins who are gaining weight. They're just overeating on Atkins. They haven't addressed their portion contol problem.

You are correct sir. I am a doc and was THE biggest skeptic about Atkins for years. Now my wife and I have lost thirty pounds each on the diet. The key is sticking to it. Many people have starting eating all the meat and fats again, but did not cut out the carbs. Atkin's has given them a pass to pig out on the meats without paying the price. Low carb works if you do it by the book. My cholesterol is down and so is my wife's. It's the cheaters that are giving Atkin's a bad name.
