Default Abs Diet?

For the month of January, I was using The Abs Diet by Adam Zincenko, the editor-in-chief of Men's Health Magazine.
I've gotten good results (lost 9 lbs and gained a couple pounds of muscle.)
I am switching to South Beach (which I stay within the rules of but make it as close to Atkins as I can) because Atkins used to make my blood sugar-mood issues totally go away (after the withdrawl, which I'm in now.)

Anyway - has anyone else here used 'The Abs Diet'? I used Fitday, and found that following his menus that I ate less than 100 grams of carbs a day, which to most Americans is very low carb.

Just wondering if anyone else checked it out before.

Thanks!

After doing Atkins for the last few years I find I'm needing a change and am considering the ABS diet as I am exercising quite a bit and think the extra carbs may help with energy levels.
(I'm tired and sore ALL the time)

I just checked the book out of the library and have been pouring over it. I'm going to give it go because I'm having a really hard time around with atkins.
