First of all, I would like to say that I do not think of atkins as a fad. Although some people might treat it as such, I think of it more as a healthy way of eating for life.

Also, I would like to say that I do not believe this is true. I myself do not bodybuild, but my father does and is also on a low carb diet. When he started atkins he was at about 40% body fat. Now, he is at about 18%. Since starting, he has NOT lost any muscle, only gained muscle. I also do light weight lifting, and my percent of fat has only gone down.
