Down Fall of Low Carb

A long time ago I thought having low carb products in mass was a good idea.
I thought it would make low carb easier. I thought low carb on the go would
be easier. I thought cooking with low carb products would be easier.

What I've learned is low carb products in mass really hurts the low carb
dieter because it takes away the basic principal of low carb. Yes some
product development has been great for diabetics as they have much better
choices in foods that won't raise BSL's, and some other products are
excellent as they do not interfere with weight lose, but for the most part
the snacks, legal treats, pre made shakes, breads, etc., have added to low
carb being more of a fad then a life style change. The products are more
for maintenance but fool the dieter into thinking it's a part of the diet
phase.

I've come to realize low carb is at it's best when you are eating real foods
for the weight lose phase and maybe a few 'products' when your in long term
maintenance and incorporating the life style with your tastes. You still
have to be careful.

The marketing plan is, get a diet, it become popular people are losing
weight, get products, people stop losing weight and start struggling with
the diet.
