Eating almost zero carbs for two weeks is NOT doing Atkins. Atkins, even during induction, stresses a healthful variety of food, and stresses not going under 20 grams. Atkins is not a "diet" but a way of life, and involves eating a very balanced diet, with lots of fresh veggies and even some fruit, neither of which you can be eating if you are doing zero carbs. People have strange ideas about Atkins. Even in his older books he stressed balance and moderation. In the older books he allowed for VERY brief introduction/induction period with largely no carbs. But research and understanding led him to modify that in all his later books. Zero carbs is not healthy. Joy
