Default advice and help

In many ways Atkins.com has made the purchase of the book a little less
necessary. It also includes meals, snacks, you name it.

Of course, this group has a wealth of articles, many concerning the same
questions asked every other day, if you will just search :-)


I bought the book almost two years ago. Since then the Atkins organisation
has moved strongly towards marketing all sorts of food type products which,
IMO, we would be well off without. The book didn't push this stuff, just
gave the rationale for the diet and suggested real food to eat. Is the web
site as detached, or has it become part of the marketing department, intent
on pushing bars and shakes and quasi low-cal substitutes?
