I need to lose some weight in one week. I heard that eating little or no carbs (or in other words, going on the Atkin's diet) will help me do this. I just need to know which foods I can eat and which foods I can't. It seems like everything I pick up has carbs in it. I'm looking for lists of foods, recipes, advice...anything to help me lose this weight.

There's plenty of Atkins info and recipes on the web, but in general you want to focus on meats, cheeses, and eggs. For easy snacks, try stuff like string cheese or Atkins snack bars or jerky, for meals just go for un-breaded meats and eggs. A lot of vegies only add a small amount of carbs as well, but avoid fruits. When they talk about low or no carb diets, understand that this does not include fiber, fiber is fair game.

Avoid anything with sugar (including most fruits)
You can have any type meat you want even McDonald hambugers but no bun and no bread.
No starches (potatoes and pasta are out)
No milk but you can have cream
Diet drinks, eggs and bacon (again no bread), salads (easy on the dressing).
The good news is as much as you want but avoid carbs.
Look at the products you buy and it will show you the amount of carbs. You want as few as 5 carbs a day

You need carbs in your diet to be healthy... cutting carbs can make you 'unhealthy' in the long run. Honestly... a balanced meal is the way to go... just cut portions. and eat smart
