Well I thought the story was a typical 60 minutes ‘nothing’ story and a waste of 15 minutes.

Exactly - well put! Typical shallow tabloid coverage.

I mean - exactly how did Powter's miming of putting her fingers down her throat at the mention of Dr Atkins' name help?

The rep from the Atkins Centre got it right of course - saying that low carb has scientific proof, and the only criticism is opinion not fact, but she was given barely a few moments.

And what was with that "diet expert" they trotted out? Saying you can eat whatever you like, just don't overdo it!!!!! Hello! Has this man ever heard of carb addiction? Obviously not.

As soon as the programme began I began to pooh pooh it, to my SO's disgust. He kept telling me to listen to what they were saying, maybe they'd habe something interesting to say. Hmmph! At the end he apologized and agreed it was a lot of garbage.

I should have watched the BB eviction.
