I followed it several years ago. It did wonders for me, but it was the first plan I tried. I don't think there is much difference between protein power and the new Atkins, but I'm not certain.

There is a lot of good explanatory stuff in the protein power book, but it's old. If you want explanatory/rationale, Why We Get Fat and What to Do About It by Gary Taubes is great, and very recent. He is not peddling any certain plan, but there is a basic plan in that book (No Sugar, No Starch, which you can also find free on the Internet/Youtube).

Protein Power was my original........ really like Dr. Eads... not much difference.... I think I remember it starts out with 30 carbs per day allowed making sure you get a specific amount of protein for your size. Protein Power has a message board if you search for it on google. Although it is no where as active or informative as this one.
