First, the Atkins diet is still as popular as it ever was. The Atkins products (candy bars, drinks which was very over priced) is what went bankrupt. People who have read and followed the Atkins diet plan knows it is one of the best ways to lose weight and maintain weight control. This post is very misleading and it sucks.

The problem for me is, Atkins bars are the best!

I haven't found anything nearly as good as the chocolate PB bar -- must others are like chewing hardened Play-Do or clay. Ditto S'Mores, and their new granola bars. And believe me, I've looked!

Good grief; I can't believe there are people on this forum defending the Atkins Plan - it was HORRIBLE! Yes, I read the book.

From another article on the bankruptcy

Like other diet fads, Atkins and the low-carb craze could not be sustained. NPD said the fad peaked early last year, when about 9 percent of the population reported adhering to a low-carb intake. By the end of last year, less than 4 percent claimed to follow the diet, the firm said.
