If the dieter is eating a sufficient amount of protein and working out with weights regularly muscle loss should be minimal. There's a better chance of retaining muscle on Atkins than on other "diets" for this reason.
If anyone kept accurate body fat % measurements while on Atkins that would be helpful.
