atkins really isnt healthy for growing kids in the frist place, cuz we need alot of carbs. second of all, that is way to much weight to lose, and u should talk to her about taken it slow, going to her doctor, and perhaps a diatichien.

no, its not bad because its not like those complete drugs. it is healthy meals. although, if she is losing weight so fast, she should calm down a little. she could get sick
