I did the Atkins from January to about August. At the time I started the Atkins I was almost 200 lbs. Around August I was down to 170 or. At that time I felt I wasn't THAT fat anymore, and went back to normal eating and started exercising a lot.
Atkins is a very good diet, however, it isn't for the weak willed. If you can't control yourself from eating a piece of cake or slice of pizza, you might have a tough time with it.
You will feel like crap the first couple days, but that's only because your body is assimulating into ketosis. Once you're in, you'll feel a ton better.
It DOES work - as many people who have already responded have attested for.
