It scares me after I heard on CBS.com about the heart abnormalities that developed in 3 people doing the Atkins plan...2 people died...and one was diagnosed with a heart abnormality...and all were on atkins plans...so I am researching the South Beach Plan, seems that the plan is also low fat and light foods along with low carb....and a bit more carbs in it...not so restricting on breads and pastas...etc..I wanna healthy heart and lose weight then maintain it.
If you want more info on the news alert go to www.cbs.com and see news...atkins red flag alert. This scared me...even though there is no proof that it was caused by atkins...but I find that I am eating way too much fat and I want to reduce that intake...for heart health.

Thanks for taking a peek and if anyone has any advice feel free to post me some answers...I know you need fat in this diet for it to work....but I feel the need to reduce it.
