Even through a HEALTHY DIET, after atkins weight goes back on as FAT, leaving you with more fat and less protein than you started off with, which leaves you feeling even more out of shape than before, and can start off a vicious circle of yo-yo dieting.

You really have no idea of what you are talking about. After reaching the weight you want you slowly increase your carbs to a point where you are not losing any more but are not gaining. How is that going to make you fat again?

Low-carbohydrate and high-protein plans are potentially dangerous. The diets often contain too much saturated fat and not enough fibre, and lack of carbohydrates puts the body into ketosis. Ketosis is the abnormal metabolic state with unpleasant side effects such as bad breath, nausea, and puts you into a catabolic state! Meaning that it causes you to lose muscle. That's a fact! . The diet can also place a strain on the kidneys. The 'science' behind the diet has been disagreed with by every health professional on the planet!

You are so full of shit.
The notion that the Atkins will force your body to break down muscle is incorrect. Only individuals on very low-calorie diets can lose muscle mass, because they have an inadequate protein intake.
So long as you have extra body fat, ketosis is safe and natural. There is nothing harmful, abnormal or dangerous about ketosis.
Philadelphia., PA -- A 3-center study led by researchers at the Weight and Eating Disorders Program of the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine reports the results of the first controlled trial of the Atkins Diet. The Atkins Diet limits carbohydrates but permits unrestricted amounts of protein and fat. Compared to a conventional, high- carbohydrate, low-calorie approach, Atkins dieters lost twice as much weight at 3 and 6 months but there was no difference between the groups at 1 year. Despite the lack of differences in weight loss at 1 year, the Atkins dieters had significantly greater increases in good cholesterol (HDL) and greater decreases in triglycerides.
The study, to be published in the May 22 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine, was led by Gary Foster, Ph.D. Associate Professor of Psychiatry and Clinical Director of the Weight and Eating Disorders Program at the University of Pennsylvania. Samuel Klein, MD of Washington University in St. Louis and James Hill, Ph.D. and Holly Wyatt, M.D. of the University of Colorado were the lead investigators at the other centers.
