For those who claim you can't keep it off on Atkins... I eat pretty much what I want now even though my tastes have changed while I was on this diet. I don't do any pop, I eat a banana for a snack, usually 2 a day. My hamburgers are on wheat bread, I have potatoes and chips, I eat lots of green beans and I am down to 198 now on what I am doing. The weight is NOT coming back. Been maintaining my weight since January like this...
