Hi JC,
My thoughts after watching, listening, doing different weight things - including Atkins.
Any of the diets can be good to drop some initial pounds...even more if you stay with it. Most people don't, there by doing the yo-yo thing.
I think your idea of exercise and controlled calorie works best in the long run. Incorporate carbs ( good carbs, stick away from anything white is the general rule) but not at a high intake. Sugars as well. Hate to say it but it's basically healthy eating and exercise habits that keep weight down the best.
Of course my mom and sister keep it off by being nervous wrecks. never worked for me.
I get how it should be done...doing it is a totally different story!
Continued good luck to you.
