Just my humble opinion-

but people who like the principles of Atkins and want something similar that is a bit more flexible might like the Body For Life system. That WOE also stresses protein and good carbs. Body RX by Scott Connelly is also a good one.

You might want to do some research into those systems if Atkins really defeats you, lol.

I'm not knocking Atkins because I know people who have maintained ont hat plan for years quite succesfully, but it's just really hard for a lot of people to get into ketosis, etc. You don't have to with those other plans.
