I've used the Atkins diet before to quickly shed some weight. It does work well, but it is hard for people who work more than a few miles from home, you can't just run home at lunch and grill a chicken breast. Yes, restaurants have options that you can eat but they are expensive if you want to get full.
What I have found to work well is just eat the same ole crap that I have forever, but eat less of it. Instead of getting the extra value meal, go large with a diet coke, just get the burger and diet coke or go with the tiny little happy meal (you get a cool little toy too). Go to Subway, and instead of eating a footlong sub, get the six inch and no chips. You will feel hungry and unsatisfied for a few days but your stomach will shrink down to where you will start to feel full again by eating less. Then don't blow it by over-eating. If you really feel like you need to overeat, like Thanksgiving for example do it, but only once then go back to half a sandwich. What this does is basically just cut calories, the most important thing to do to lose weight.
Cut calories and exercise.
