What happened to Atkins.com?!

[cleochatra]

Did I just stumble into frankenfood heck?



The success stories? Gone.
The phases? Can't find 'em.

The whole thing looks like a big commercial now.

Where is all the good information that used to be there?

We are truly alone in this now, armed only with our 2002 Dr Atkins New Diet Revolution books and each other!

You're right.

[cleochatra]

We're alone, but we're soooooooooooo cool.

I am so bummed, though. That site used to be someplace you could send a newbie for information, and now it's a place you send someone you don't like.

I've been busy copying some of the recipes out of there before they do away with them altogether.
I went there to look up the Pork Tenderloins in Creamy Mustard Sauce (omg..you've all just GOT to try it!) and I noticed all the changes. They don't even specify which phase each recipe is for anymore. I gave the link and then I realized I needed to do a disclaimer about how if people wanted to try the recipes they need to have a very firm grip about the phase they are on and which foods they can eat if they want to make something from there.

Wow, and i just used the link at the bottom to choose my country, thinking there was a canadian specific site maybe, and it took me to a list of atkins products that they sell here LOL.

Well here is a clue into what happened (this is from the Phase 1, link):

Team up with the Atkins Experts at eDiets for an eating plan customized to your food preferences and lifestyle, for just a small monthly fee.

Moochie-- I'll go get recipes, too. Thanks for mentioning it! Did you notice over half of the pictures in the recipe index section had bread products in the picture? I was like :^O

[sadie147]

I had a 'recipe box' there..that's gone too

i'm gonna start printing some

[slimndown]

I'm surprised they did something with it! They haven't done anything for like....6 months? I've tried the eDiets Atkins thing before and it wasn't too bad but I have to admit that I didn't keep up with the membership because I could find everything on Atkins' site . Well, not anymore . Funny, one of the reasons I stumbled on this site was looking for fresh success stories - they haven't updated those since 2003 "?".

[dreamof145]

Yes, I went in there the other day and was shocked that the site was completely different.
