dukan vs atkins

[abz]

hi there. i am sorry if this is a continually asked question.

i am looking to start dukan, but i have had similar success with atkins before.

i was wondering if anybody had done both and which was recommended. not to mention there are tumbleweeds in the dukan part of the forum

I think it depends on willpower. I've never read the Dukan book, but don't you get a list of foods that you can have unlimited amounts of during he first phase?? On Atkins you eat when your hungry (unlimited) so you have the carb limit of 20g per day.

I don't think either is better than the other, it's just preference. I am currently on Day 3 of Atkins. I've dropped 4lbs and I'm following precisely without cheating

P. S if you look below this thread there is a section called 'similar threads' might be worth looking through them. Atkins and Dukan don't seem to be as popular as they were 5 years ago, so the boards are quiet.
