rehmwa 2 #29 March 15, 2004 QuoteI haven't read Atkins' work, . . .The key is not so much carbohydrates per se as it is glycemic index and the tendency to reactive hypoglycemia. Complex and bound carbohydrates are just fine, while high fructose corn syrup is the absolute worst. . . I read the book and if you read the book, what you said is exactly the point. He just goes overboard on other stuff and those that don't have matching metabolisms are bitter that this diet doesn't work for them so they are rather vocal. And the 'synopsis' are usually written by people who didn't read the book either and think it's just a eat all the cheese you can 'diet'. Quote- (Riddler) I'm more for moderation of carbs (The Zone). same comment This diet plan works for some and not others, just like everything else - (there is no 'one size fits all' approach to metabolism people, just good rules that may apply - you have to find the ones that work for you)?

NoShitThereIWas 0 #36 March 15, 2004 Atkins Diet sucks and is sooooo bad for you. I remember when my ex went on it. It was such a pain because he couldn't eat anything except the probably worst foods in the world for you. It was like, what do you want to do for breakfast honey? Reply: Bacon and porkchops What do you want for dinner? Reply: Steak and it was all he ate. I can eat all the bacon I want and lose all this weight! In the meantime, you end up having a coronary or a heart attack from clogged arteries not to mention all the other yucky stuff that comes along with eating nothing but red meat. I'm sure you can eat other things in the Atkins diet but I always thought it was lame. You really want to lose weight? Become a vegetarian, cut out your saturated fats and burn more calories than you take in. It's pretty simple.Roy Bacon: "Elvises, light your fires." Sting: "Be yourself no matter what they say."

jlmiracle 7 #37 March 15, 2004 QuoteAtkins Diet sucks and is sooooo bad for you. I remember when my ex went on it.

They can't drink what we have, they can only eat the meat, can't have appetizers and when cooking for a bunch of people, pasta is often easier unless of course you have to cook a whole seperate meal for the Atkins People. Oh yeah, I tried that Michelob Ultra low carb beer and it tasted like dirty water. GO CARBS! JudyBe kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
