4.0 out of 5 stars Great book for Maintenance!, 25 Oct 2003
By A Customer
Presently I'm following Atkins Diet Revolution, and continuing with Induction. I'm no where near goal, however I bought this book because I was curious, and I wanted more information.

I'm not sorry in the slightest! There are inspirational stories of people who have lost weight, with pictures too! There's a description of the science behind the plan, but without the chapters of waffle.

And wow, how fantastic to read the lists of food one can eat once reaching goal, virtually no food is forbidden, fruit, apples etc, potatoes, wholegrains, legumes, pasta etc may all be eaten moderately.

This is written for the american market. The meal plans for increasing carbs by 5gs per week are great but some of the food is typically American, so be prepared to subsitute, and that is the same advise for any low carb american cookbook! Be prepared to find subsitutes and to tweak the receipes.

Atkins for Life, is definitely worth buying if you reached the stage where believe you will follow this way of life for good, then this is definitely a book to enlighten you to the fact low carb doesn't mean bacon and eggs for breakfast every day!

4.0 out of 5 stars The contreversy that surrounds this book are all rumours!!, 11 Oct 2003
By A Customer
You have probably heard of all the stories surrounding the controversial atkins diet. By reading this book these rumours are dashed!. The atkins diet is a safe and healthy way of losing weight and staying that way by cutting out only the bad carbohydrates . Its untrue that you only eat fatty foods that clog the arteries and cause heart attacks. This is a way that is wrong to follow and means you simply havent researched the diet correctly. I urge you to buy this book and follow the rules properly and come back 6 months down the line and tell me you havent dropped a pound. Trust me, this is one purchase you will not regret!!!!.
