atkins is for pussies.. im going to start selling tapeworm eggs eat all you fucking want and still diet!

btw fiddy trendy diets when what you really need is exercise.

I've been noticing it too. Another fad diet. Despite the constant bombardment of "fat free" products the past 10 years, the nation did not get healthier. Now, it will be the same with Atkins. People want easy cures. They want to take a magic pill and have an easy time of it. There is an easy way already. Eat less calories than your body consumes in a day to lose weight.

Nothing is better than a well-rounded diet combined with exercise and strength training. A good mixture of carbs is good.
I lost 50 pounds this year while consuming 200g of carbs a day.

Well, if you're 200 pounds consuming 3000 calories a day (all that damned soda and beer) you better work on your input.

An aerobic session might increase your calories consumed by, say, 250 calories. It's just as easy to not drink that 20 oz. soda. Easier, really.

It's not all that healthy but a Big Mac and small fry with a diet soda is only 800 calories. Obese guys could eat that for lunch and dinner with a bowl of cereal for breakfast and still lose weight.

It's all the extra food and high calorie sodas in between meals that really gets most people. Nearly any candy bar is 350 or more calories. The thing about obese people is they do things like eat a whole bag of chips or cookies.

Some people think they are eating "healthy" and will lose weight but they never will. They are getting way too many calories and not considering all the sources. Take rice, for example. Doesn't seem particularly dangerous. Take a look at a bag of Uncle Ben's 90 second rice in the supermarket. Same calories as a medium fry from McD's.
