Atkins is a high FAT diet, not a high protein one. Excess dietary protein is converted to glucose, which is stored as fat. So eating an entire cow won't help you lose weight.

You really need to read the links Sunny provided and you really need to read the book. There are too many lies about Atkins, so do yourself a favor and do it properly----your health and safety depends on it.
