So thankful for Dr. Atkins!! I’ve lost a lot of weight in my lifetime, after each of my 3 pregnancies in which I gained a lot of weight. I would eat barely anything and have hardly enough energy to function. I have ruined my metabolism, trying to diet time and time again. I’m down to those last few pounds and Atkins has helped me lose weight when all else has been failing me. I’ve recently lost seven pounds and I feel GREAT!!! TOTALLY LOVE ATKINS!!

They however do eat bread and pastries, but it is not consumed before bed and any old time of the day.
