I just had to buy my 3rd copy of Atkin's New Diet Revolution. I gave my first
one to a good friend, and she got pregnant (it wasn't an Atkins baby, she found
out her first week) so she gave it to her Mom, who was interested in how I did
it too. Then I gave another copy to a mother of my daughter's friend, who was
equally impressed. I must have a weak spot for compliments. People say they
want to do what I did, and I just give it away, LOL! What's sad is that between
people I've given the book to, and people who have bought the book on my
recommendation, they all had the exact same reaction. Some version of "Wow,
this is nothing like I thought Atkins would be!" Do people really think we just
sit around all day hacking meat off the side of a dead animal and stuffing it
down our throats? I guess the PCRM is doing a better job than I thought with
their scare tactics.

The usual story is tht you find a really good book and you loan (loan =
"give" to too many people) it to somebody who never reads it, or never
returns it either.

Almost as good as throwing the book away.

Except someone else helps you.
