Default Atkins Diet

i personally think one should balance everything in a diet-- cutting out carbs
as a whole is a bad idea, and even limiting them to a very low level is
probably not the best idea for the body. it is a good idea, however, to cut out
certain carbs completely that are made with enriched flour, and basically any
empty, starchy carb. look for *multigrain* pastas, breads, etc. and eat fruit
and drink lowfat milk. if you cut out carbs from almost your entire diet, you
have a high chance of gaining the weight back if you reintroduce them at some
point-- at least i've seen it happen to people. it would have to be a lifetime
commitment and carefully administered.
