I have been struggling to loose on Atkins. I lost well the first two weeks of induction and then slowed and then stopped loosing. I have kept on trying for the last 2 months tweeking everything I could and trying different things that were suggested but it just got too ridiculous and I realized that if I had to be no dairy, no caffeine, under 20 net carbs, no artificial sweetners, no nuts, no fruit and no weight loss to be able to move up the rungs: I was just not going to stick with it and I really am convinced with the low carb rational. I feel good, I have no cravings and have not felt the need to "cheat" but I am not loosing.

So I got the protein power book and read it. I find it much more flexible but I am just wondering if it can really work with higher carbs than Atkins when I was already struggling.
