The proven diet that will slim you down, get you exercising, and change your life.

The All-New Atkins Advantage is more than a diet: it features the Atkins proven-effective weight loss program in a 12-week, step-by-step plan, including instructions on how to incorporate healthy exercise into your life as well as guidance on maintaining the motivation to stick with the diet and exercise program.

Each week builds on the one before it to raise your level of competence and confidence:

Week 1: Combat cravings for sugars and starches with tasty, low-carb alternatives like veal parmesan and trout almondine.

Week 4: Achieve peak fitness with the Atkins approach to exercise. Fully illustrated stretching, cardio, and strength training plans will get you energized.

Week 6: Start an Atkins journal to maintain your motivation and continue your enthusiasm and success.

Week 9: Get out of your lunch rut! Go out for a special but speedy meal at a restaurant, instead of the nearby deli.

Week 12: All the work you’ve done thus far has prepared you for this moment: the beginning of the rest of your life!
