When I started the Atkins diet I wasn't writing down what I was eating or how much. The weight wasn't moving. After I bought this book and started my daily diary, it was amazing. I saw the mistakes I was making and the weight started to just melt away. Would highly recommend that anyone starting the Atkins diet get this journal.

I highly recommend this journal . I used it before and I am getting ready to order another one. It is very informative, with a list of foods that you are to eat in the journal, which helps when you are eating out or grocery shopping and don't have a list to go by. I have a lot of Dr. Atkins' literature and highly recommend any of his books. He was and always will be one of the greatest physicians in his field of low carb weight loss,always striving to find a way to make people healthier. I have other weight loss journals,but find this one the most helpful.

As always, for anyone who's on the Atkin's Diet, or thinking about it, their publications are great, informative and conducive to achieving results. What's more, these types of great tools help a person make lifestyle changes, rather than just dropping some lbs. I love this little addition to my other Atkin's reference materials and I'd buy it again, if I had to.

I RECOMEND ANYONE DOING THE ATKINS DIET TO GET THIS JOURNAL. I LOVE IT. IT HAS REALLY HELPED ME SEE MY RESULTS AND MY ACCOMPLISHMENTS. I LOST 15 LBS JUST IN THE 1ST TWO WEEKS JUST LIKE THE BOOK SAID I WOULD. THANKS A BUNCH, JUST THOUGHT I WOULD SHARE MY GREAT NEWS. ANGELA

I have never spent money for anything that was this much help. I know I always thought I knew what I ate and how many net carbs there were, but writing everything down really puts it into perspective. Now I KNOW what I am eating and it really helps me stick to my diet. It also has statistics at the end of each week.

I didn't have any problem with the journal. It's an easy way to keep track of what you're eating, net carbs, etc.
The one problem I did have, however, is that this journal is packaged with a small, separate carb-counter booklet....but it's an OLD edition! I have the newer edition (red)....and the net carb counts on a lot of the food items have changed since the old, white-coloured booklet edition. They need to package it with the newer edition. I do not suggest depending on the older booklet to keep track of net carbs.

Just piling on here, adding my two cents' worth of kudos for the journal and the way it keeps you focused on following the plan. I've been keeping track of carbs and exercise for a couple of months, just on scrap paper, and this is a nice little gift to myself. Following the program is a bit challenging, so having the journal really helps, and it's kinda fun, too. I can see myself wanting to buy another when this one is filled up. By the way, the little circles where you write in your carbs are in a light colored ink, so you can really write wherever you like on the page. I don't follow their layout precisely. The areas for snacks and little extras we might eat and wish to include are good additions, and I find I frequently have something to count that falls into a non-meal category. Very good product, I can't imagine any serious Atkins dieter, or low-carb dieter, not liking it.

This is a standard day to a page diet diary with circles to write your carb count in.

It is handbag size and spiral bound. I didn't like the circles. I want to write my carb count anywhere I darn well please.
