Sorry Liv, I have always been trying to gain weight, not lose it. So I don't know much about weight lose diets. The little I do know is about the Atkins diet.
A friend of mine was on it for a few months and lost a bunch of weight. But it turned out to be pretty bad for him. He has a heart condition and the Atkins diet is not a good idea for those with heart conditions. My friend of corse did not know that when he was on it. But I has to take him to the emergency room and they had to actually kill him and jump start him with the paddals to get his heart to beat the right way again.
They said that the Atkins diet being effective to lose weight from low or no Carb intake has a few down sides. One being that it also deprives the body of potassium. And in doing so can effect people with heart problems among other things.
Thats all I really know about it. I'm sure if you search for info on the Atkins diet on a search engine like Al was talking about it will give more info.
Good luck man.
