I wanted to add that I do not lose on Atkins if I'm drinking diet soda. I just don't, no matter how correctly I eat. I see enormous losses when I'm drinking only water with the occasional cup of hot blueberry tea w/splenda. (Once a week) I will have a cup of decaf with Splenda once a week too but the more water I drink, eating correctly, the more weight I lose. It amazes me that a diet soda halts me. I learned the hard way!
