I'm not following any particular plan - just my own I made up. I cannot do Atkins - too much fat for me, it makes me sick, something to do with my gallbladder.
I guess I eat about 60 - 100 carbs a day - I don't count carbs, BUT I keep reading and reading about carbs, so I keep learning about making better low carb choices. I do eat toast just about everyday (semi-low carb bread recipe I found online), dreamfield pasta 2x/week and on saturdays I eat whatever I want. I've also started walking every night - started at 5 min walks and am now up to 30 mins/day.
After everything I've read on different diets, I've come to the conclusion that you don't diet - you do a lifechange AND everyone is different. Atkins is great for some, but let's face it, there are a lot of healthy fit people out there on other diets, including those that follow the food pyramid guideline (fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean meat).
BTW, I've been doing this for 9 weeks now and have lost 18 lbs. I've never dieted before
