Went to my gym yesterday as I finally decided to go ahead and go with a personal trainer versus figuring out my own weight goals, and they took body measurements.

Much to my absolute shock, my body fat has INCREASED 2% while I've "LOST" 7 pounds with the Atkins plan!!!

Unless someone can provide a justified, scientific reason, I'm done with Atkins!

And I'm not the only one -- a friend of mine that I met here in this forum has recently discovered she has gained 4% body fat since starting Atkins.

I sincerely hope the rest of you don't have these same results. I did the plan as it was supposed to be done even with exercise and these results are not acceptable.

Best of luck to everyone ~
