Bottom Line People complain the diet pushes too much red meat and cheese. Although Atkins was a big deal back in the day, it’s just not in the same league with today’s top diets like South Beach Diet or Medifast. Atkins Diet Reviews Atkins Diet Review #1 by Annie Sauter on October 17th, 2007 at 11:22 PM CDT Name Atkins worked great for me and my husband. His cholesterol went from a whopping 460 (on 80 mg lipitor and Ornish and PRitikin) to 165 with a better ratio too. My triglycerides went from 1500 to 100. We both lost over 30 pounds in a few months . The only problem was that we craved fruit in the summer. We then found that berries and melon seemed to be ok. Don't use the atkins bars. Use regular food and don't use "low carb" snack junk food and it is great. There was just an article in the NY Times about how the false rumors that fats were bad. (trans fats are the only bad fat) Check it out in the times how bad rumors start and why Atkins continues to work despite the food pyramid--it was all from a game of doctors playing "telephone" Atkins worked great for me and my husband.
