Where are all the thin poeple from Atkins first book?
No diet works long term. Only changing the way one eats all the time works
long term. For me, and many others here, low carb is the easiest plan to follow. What makes you think you are an expert on something you have never done in contrast to the many people here who have done it with very positive results. In , Rob stated | I'm saying it was a fad diet 30 years ago that didn't work "long term" | and it's still a fad diet 30 years later that won't work "long term". | It's a quick fix with stories all over about people who have lost, | then gained, then lost again, then gained everything back plus more. | | Fad diets that require foods or food groups to be cut from the diet | are the most likely to fail.

Low-carb solutions cannot overcome desire for instant gratification. No plan will work in the long-term if it isn't incorporated into a lifestyle. Diet vs. WOE. Simple as that. Loser |

Count calories. It's the only way to succeed, that's the bottom line. I'm in the mood for responding to a troll--just in that argumentative kind of mood. Counting calories IS a diet plan, genius. And like all those "fad" diets you lose and then you gain back. Unless you count calories every day until you are in the grave you run the risk of gaining it all back or more. Most people, on every diet plan, gain weight back eventually. Eventually willpower caves, **** happens, health problems arise and if you are part of the poopulation that has a natural tendency for overweight your body will put it back on. You are an idiot who hasn't researched anything. You like many doctors ignore obvious biological problems because fat people are just stupid gluttons who are looking for a quick fix. Unlike your "count calories" method, Atkins actually addresses why your hungry and doesn't simply say you eat "this" much then have to stop no matter what. He addresses how the body reacts to foods, allergies, and why some people get abnormal cravings. And you might notice that the boom in obesity coincided with the gov.&medical establishment's acceptance of FDA/AMA recommendation on what a healthy diet is and how bad all fats are(which is how it was originally). In the last 30 years there have also been repeated exercise booms... anyone recall Jane Fonda, Susan Powder, Richard Simmons, bowflex, and the explosion of gyms all over the country. All of these occurred yet american health and obesity continued to pork up. How can it be that there are more home gyms, Ballys, dieting plans, dieting companies, diet foods, and everything under the sun -- yet people get fatter. They must all not work. Exercise doesn't work. Weight Watchers doesnt' work, slimfast doesn't work, Richard Simmons doesn't work. Amazing how statistics can be used to propose a lie, isn't it?
