Hi - I think you've hit the nail on the head. You didn't change your diet drastically and eliminate the high fat foods, you just added the soluble fiber foods like rice and pasta. So you got a net calorie gain. Your ideas for the complex carb foods and portion control will probably make a good difference.

For the long term effects of Atkins, I'm waiting for studies too. But there is already hard evidence that too much protein (especially animal protein) stresses the kidneys and bones, so I'd be concerned about that. It will be interesting to see more studies - if I come across new ones I'll definitely post them.
