My kids are on a whole foods diet. It's not Atkins -- I just no longer buy anything that's processed for me. It's much more difficult and time-consuming, but I know my kids are eating all organic foods and aren't consuming ridiculous amounts of antibiotics, preservatives and growth hormones found in all processed meats, poultry and even a number of non-animal items! I make smoothies from scratch -- whole milk or organic yogurt and two fresh fruits in each (like banana/peach and straw/blueberry). I make my own granola and granola bars in bulk and then it's like having convenience foods around. Also I make everything from whole ingredients -- no rice from a box, etc... I'm not suggesting this is for anyone but my family. My youngest daughter has a digestive disorder and a gluten intolerance, so I was forced to get creative and work my butt off, so the whole family gets to benefit from the change. I don't know if this helps you in any way, but I just thought I'd give my input.
