The Atkins works if you want to lose all of your muscle too. It is a fad diet just like the rest of them, and is not good for you. Your cholesterol can jump through the roof, and many people gain the weight back. Carbs are a vital part of our diet. I think people eat too many of them, so cutting them back will help...but not to the point that Atkins suggests.
Some studies show eating carbs actually helps you burn calories if you are an active person.
Pilates is fine, it is the new Tae Boe kind of thing. I hear it can be pretty tough like many Yoga programs.
