• Ok Intro Info...
03 February, 2009
I bought this book because I was curious about the Atkins Lifestyle. Atkins did help me learn about how to eat good carbs, found mostly in veggies. It was a good intro to the information I would need if I wanted to live the Atkins liefstyle. However, it is onlt phase 1 of 4. The Atkins Revolution would have been more helpful. Also, both this book and Atkins Revolution I am told have incorrect information. They say to count 3 cups of veggies - this is no longer how it works. Net arbs must be counted instead of cups to make sure you are getting enough nutrients and good carbs in your body. I used the webste a lot to assist me and the USDA website for finding net carbs.
I recommend Atkins for anyone who is looking to safely lose serious weight. I am not a big girl, but I lost 7 lbs during Induction. The only trick with this "diet" is that it isn't a diet at all. It truely is a lifestyle. Bounce back to bad habits and stuff your face with cupcakes and other junk for a day or a few and I gained back 3 lbs. It takes dedication!! Do you have it?

Wow! I was amazed how fast I received my order from Wolfcreek Books.
I don't have a lot of time to read so I really enjoy listening to the subjects I am interested in.
I am a believer in Atkins. I had used it years ago and lost 60+ lbs. This book takes it further and teaches you how to change your life style to keep it off.
I am in need of the motivation.

• It Simply Works....
13 March, 2008
I can honestly say that I did the induction program for three weeks straight and I combined it with a lot of cardio exercise and I lost 22lbs. I didn't really use any of the receipes listed in the book instead I took the idea and made it my own. I just kept the carbs really low each day and cut out the sugar. You can't cheat though. My co-worker started it with me and he would make exceptions here and there and he only lost a fifth of what I lost. My personal opinion is that the Atkins diet is great for fast weight-loss but it should only be done for the short-term. Just make sure that you eat healthy once you come off the Induction phase and you won't have a problem keeping the weight off (I haven't had a problem yet).

• Jump Start In Atkins
16 June, 2009
This is an excellent book that will help you get started in Atkins. If you have ever seriously considered dieting with Atkins, this is the book to get. It will tell you all you need to get started, without going into the nitty gritty of nutrition, and enough information to show how and why it works. The book also comes with a list of questions that will help you as checkpoints of where you are before starting each phase of the diet. The book also includes many recipes you can try while on the diet, so that it not only lists what you can or cannot eat, but help you devise ways of preparing the food so that you will not be bored with the diet. I highly recommend this diet, and the book is a must as well. I needed to loose 21 pounds ASAP. With Atkins, I lost it in the span of 40 days. Of course, everyone's body and metabolism are different, so your results may vary.
