My friend was on the Atkins Diet last semester and she lost ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL kinds of weight. I mean homegirl looked good her body was bangin', I thought she looked good before she lost the weight. She also exercised too so it goes hand in hand, she also said that she found sugar free food that taste just the same as if it had sugar. If you want to lose weight you have to be motivated, just give it a try and see how it turns out. Good luck and keep us posted
