No carbs? Atkins is very definitely not a "no carb" plan. ;)
In fact none of the low carb plans advocate avoiding carbs completely. Vegies are not only healthy, they also keep you from being bored.

This is not a short term diet, where you simply avoid carbs then go back to eating "normally." Doing that will guarantee that you will not only regain any weight lost, but you'll gain more. Low carbing is a long term way of life, not a quick-fix diet. :)

I see you have not yet done any reading about low carb. First of all, I would suggest you have a look at "Which low carb plan is right for me?" at the right side of the screen. Then once you choose a plan, please do yourself the very great favour of buying the appropriate book.

I wish you much success!
