BTW Peter says he plonked me already. He still seems to reply to my posts though. Oh ya, if you would like, I can ratchet up the obnoxious level. Any idiot can ratchet up the obnoxiousness. Add your flung poo to the endless pool of poo flinging of morons with internet connections worldwide. Do you think anyone will take you seriously that way? If so, you've got another think coming. However, if you really want to impress people, make them listen to your point of view. You hate the Atkins diet, tell me why. State it rationally, back it up with objective facts, debunk with real data and I will listen (can't promise anyone else will, but you'll have my ear). I won't promise not to rebut with my own set of facts, or counter your debunk with one of my own, but I will listen. I expect you to do the same. From your previous posts, I would not have guessed that you do any style of low carb, and are against all versions of it, hence my comment in the first place. Frankly, you haven't made a very good first impression, and I don't much patience for people who have an exceptionally high noise to signal ratio. So far your noise ratio has been awfully high. If you are really are low carbing, great! By all means, hail, and well met. Welcome to alt.support.diet.low-carb. There are some very clever, and inventive cooks here, you can pick up some good recipes. You may have something to say about your experience that will be valuable to other diabetics. You may learn from them, too. You don't agree with me on low carb style. So what? You won't find me arguing with you over what you do, and I hope the reverse will be true. (If not, then who's the extremist?) I don't care what you do, if it works. As far as I'm concerned, there's no reason to be infighting about low carb diets, they're all pretty similiar. Just don't bring up that wacko blood type/diet type theory. ;-) As for me, I'm a firm believer in not becoming diabetic (runs in the family), and in losing weight until I reach a reasonalbe weight for my height. Atkins is my best bet for that, for now. If there comes a day when my bloodwork goes haywire, then my doctor and I will move on to something else. Right now that day is not here, so I'm not going to worry about it. If that makes me a cultist, then you've never met anyone in a real cult.

Hi Sleepy,
On 10-Apr-2004, Sleepyman wrote: We polluted his beloved diabetes group with crossposts. You polluted my diabetes group with OT troll crossposts. You seem to have learned your lesson though! Actually, that was the result of the Mu/Chung/Pastorio wars. ASDLC itself was but another one of their battlegrounds, just like ASD and the cardiology group. There was no concerted effort on ASDLCers parts to go annoy the diabetes group. There are a number of members in common, but that's all. but less overtly obnoxious than our new resident loon. Loony boy (aka Normal) almost makes me miss the Mu/Chung vs. Bob wars. Bite your tongue! If you've been reading the diabetes group today you'll see Mu is back. The Mu/Chung/Pastorio wars have already resumed. Just a heads-up. ASDLC doesn't start this stuff. We just attract the folks who do. :-) Take care, Carmen |

Hi Sleepy,
On 10-Apr-2004, Sleepyman wrote: I do believe in low or I suppose around here it would be lower carb diet, as I am forced to be due to my disease. My only argument here is with the extremist element. Most newsgroups have an extremist element, and I think diet groups have to have one. It's the law or something. G Your lower carb diet isn't Atkins or Protein Power low, but it's still a low carb diet. For we diabetics it makes sense to lower carb intake. Your best bet is to nod politely or ignore the Martha Morelowcarbthanyou folks the same as you would that rabid cousin who keeps telling you that your purchase of Nike shoes is morally equivalent to keeping a slave. They aren't going to go away, their position stems from a belief system. No amount of logic can dislodge a belief - just look at religious disputes. Take care, Carmen |
