New Atkins for a New You : The Ultimate Diet for Shedding Weight and Feeling Great by Eric C. Westman, Jeff S. Volek and Stephen D. Phinney (2010, Trade Paperback)

Well written book on Atkins

Easy to read and absorb the info on the diet. I would say that it definitely works for burning fat, however they probably should emphasize an overall upper calorie limit - some people take 'no limit' as permission to eat larger quantities than helpful. The sample weekly meals on Atkins website give a better sense of realistic amounts and portions. Still, really like the way the book explains the theory behind the diet, it is an important tool.Read full review

Appreciated the Meal Plans

I skimmed much of the book, but really liked that it has meal plans for different levels of carbohydrate intake. Other books had recipes, but I needed help with looking at full days worth of food. There are recipes in the book and chapters on how to proceed on the ketogenic eating plan. I liked that it talks about the health improvements beyond weight loss with the ketogenic nutritional plan.

Exactly what I was looking for:)

I purchased the original Atkin's diet book years ago but think it ended up in the Goodwill pile at some point. This updated version has all of the same info plus updated. Enjoying this book and will be using it as a reference for some time.Read full review

The new Atkins for a new you

About several of these books for family members. I'm not doing this diet I'm doing a lifestyle change with the ketogenic diet. So I have no advice on this type of diet.
