Well, as the Woman Doctor said, go ahead and lose the weight, if you are unhappy with the way you look, it's very easy to gain the weight back again, just eat the way you did when you were gaining it.

The healthy fats in this diet may also keep wrinkles from being a huge problem. Dr. Atkins talks about successful low-fat dieters having a certain look in the face where they do not have a healthy layer of subcutaneous fat. (I'm mixing my Dr.'s messages, but he said something like that.)
