hi melzy, no i am not a fan of atkins, i am not a fan of any fad diets. reason being that your body needs carbohydrates, it needs protein and it needs fat and sugar.

all of these categories have two sub sections ie, the good fats and the bad fats, it is just a matter of identifying which are the bad ones to stay away from. fat is fine, but saturated fat is not etc.

also there are certain times of the day that you should have these things in order to get the benefits from them you need.

would be great if it was easy hey!
