I have completed 6 days and lost 1.4 pounds I agree with the plan because I lost weight on Atkins years ago. But having gotten older and gone through hormonal changes I had hoped this would take off 10 pounds quickly so I could focus on the last 5 and toning exercises. But at one pound for 6 days there is no way to reach 10 in two more weeks. I did not follow exactly because I knew Atkins so that may be my problem. So I am going to start again and stick to it exactly as I should and see if I can come back in a week with at least 5 lb loss.
