You can eat unlimited calories and do no excercise on the Atkins diet, and lose weight. Its all about carbs, especially bad carbs.
IIRC it's not "unlimited" but more like "as much as you have the appetite for". Appetite suppression is achieved by getting into ketosis through minimizing carbs. N'est c'est pas?
To: caveat emptor
True, you do lose appetite after a while. But in the early stages you can eat thosands of calories a day and still lose weight. In fact you will probably lose the fastest in the first few weeks.
I do acknowlege that Atkins is not a long term solution for most because most people just won’t stay on it. Carbs are just too tempting. But that doesn’t make Atkins wrong.
