I wish it were true that you can't binge on LC food. I'm just as likely to binge on meat as on tortilla chips, if not more so. In fact it happened just this past Saturday. And I'd probably be a blimp if I lived in America, what with the enormous steaks you get there. I'm neither a carb addict nor a protein addict nor a fat addict - I'm capable of overdoing just about anything, and that's an emotional/psychological issue.

That's also one reason why I don't do Atkins. I don't deal well with overly restrictive diets that label certain foods as "sinful". It sends me into a downwards spiral of guilt and comfort eating that is very hard to break. That's why I'm on a more moderate diet that allows a bit of everything and doesn't have an induction period.

BTW, Weight Watchers has worked well for me in the past too, so I'm not of the opinion that low-carbing is the One True Way.
