Hi Everybody

Can anyone offer any advice on the following? My friend Helen started Atkins a couple of weeks ago and managed one week on the induction programme. She felt better, belt as if she had lost weight, but didn't register anything at the scales . She gave up after a week and went back on Weight Watchers as she said she was missing her fruit and veg too much

She told me at the weekend that she plans to follow Atkins for a week and then do a week on W W and keep alternating them . Does anyone have any ideas exactly what this will do to her metabolsim

She doesn't seem to be taking any notice of me when I tell her that I don't think it will do her any good.
