aka how one Iowa guy lost over 200 pounds and gained his life back. I can not say enough about how positively the Atkins Diet and low carb in general has been for me. I went from a 429 pound guy who could barely make it up a flight steps to a guy running half marathons and rejoining the National Guard. My health is fantastic, and my blood work (cholesterol, triglycerides, blood pressure, heart) could not be better.

I would like to know about anyone that has tried the Atkins Diet and how it worked for you, and any advice.
Its rubbish and makes you ill, dont do it. We NEED carbs in opur diet, to cut them out is dangerous and that Atkins should have been shot for the damage he did. Carbs are not the enemy, they are the backbone of a healthy diet. Atkins gives you headaches, bad breath, weakness and lethergy and it screws up your body. You lose weight in the short term but gain it all back once you start eating normally again. The body begins to digest muscle with the Atkins diet and that can kill you. Someone else mentioned ketosis, well thats what its called medically when your body is digesting its own muscle supply.
Look at the GI Diet, its healthy, sustainable and proved to work. It uses normal foods and is balanced for optimum nutrition and energy, its also scientifically approved! I have lost almost 80lb with it in 6 months;

I’m 5’10" 170 pounds, I’m in good physical shape I’d just like to get more ripped but still keep my weight relatively low (180 pounds at the most) but look much more ripped than I am now. Would the atkins diet be good for this?
The Atkins diet is a disaster for someone with your intentions of building lean muscle. It can sap your strength big time and cut into any gains in size that you are trying to make right now. Try to avoid cutting carbs very much when you are trying to build muscle.
