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. LCing since 12/01/03-

OK my other post was a joke (except I have read the books in question haha)
but I have read the book and recommended it to others to see if the Atkins
diet is exactly what they think it is... The few I've talked to are
surprised that it's not that "all meat" diet.
