I am digging this one up as I ahd a feeling that atkins "fad" was going to go the way of the Dodo.
Carbs are not bad, and neither are fats, proteins etc
What is bad is the total lack of MODERATION
IE.
A chipotle burrito is actually enough to feed THREE people, two if you are a bit hungry. Not one entire burrito for yourself!
A beer is not to bad. 12 beers is (using Guiness 125 calories/beer x 12 = 1500 k/cal TOTAL)!
All a matter of portion control coupled with excersice and you WILL lose weight. You body has no other choice.

I can't believe that N00b didn't know what blasphemy meant, or that he got mad that Brewster threw it out with no definition. If you don't know a word, that's your own damn fault, YOU go look it up. Where's Sam Clemens when you need him...
I used the Atkins diet when I was in like fifth grade, I lost a lot of weight and felt a lot better (more energy, even when I just started and hadn't lost anything yet) but it came back super fast.
I lost way more weight running and have kept it off for over two years now with basically no exercise or moderation... If people really want to start losing weight, they have to put down these bullshit diets and start a calorie deficit eating/exercise plan. It doesn't even matter WHAT you eat so long as you stay within your calorie limit. Simple math, create a deficit and the energy has to come from some where...
