My diet is already restricted, so with a little tweaking, I was able to follow this one--and it works for me! I don't handle any dairy well, so most soft cheese had to be eliminated. But veggies, fruits and meats and eggs are okay. I wanted to see what different ways the foods were prepared or seasoned to make them outstanding and perhaps more interesting to me. There are some very good recipes in the mix that are well worth the book.

There are a lot of really good recipes here that I can’t wait to try.

Lack of choice in breakfast recipes

Some nice recipes, but if you're egg white intolerant, no choice in the breakfast recipes. Surely there are other things apart from eggs

I tried the Atkins' diet once and lost twenty pounds--and promptly gained half of that back. Good for weight loss. Not so sure about maintenance. I saw a lot of friends try it and lose a lot of weight and then some time later, most of them were status quo ante. . . . Still, this volume provides a good set of Atkins' recipes and is a fine resource if one wishes to try the diet. . . .

I love this cookbook because the recipes are so elegant. Everything has been very delicious and there is great information in there to improve your own recipes. Warning that the recipes are not every day fare unless you want everyday to feel special! Wonderful!

Really quick and easy for carnivores out there who are often in a hurry.
