The 10-12x rule does appear in DANDR, at least the latest edition. I can't seem to find it at the moment, but I know I read a very small note on it.

From the Atkins web site

If you are used to counting calories and are more comfortable with such an approach, the general rule of thumb is to multiply your present weight by 10 to 12 to get the daily caloric range at which you would lose weight. For example a 150-pound woman who consumes 1,500 to 1,800 calories daily should continue to lose weight.
