that site is for the protein power diet, not the Atkins diet. It is calculating your protein intake based on their diet plan. Stick with the Atkins Center recommendations of 5 oz servings and up to 7 seven servings a day if you need that much. Use your ratios and remember you don't want to be burning protein for fuel only using it for cellular repair. Don't use a body building site either since they are lean muscle machines and have very different needs from someone trying to loss weight. You can call the Atkinscenter 800 number and talk for free to someone who can either answer your question about your protein amounts or find someone who can. Far too many new Atkins dieters mess up their ketosis by eating too much protein because they don't understand how the program works or misinterpret the unlimited amounts statements.

Happy low carbing to you.
