After my experience of packing on more than 10 lbs in a two-day period when I fell off the wagon, you'd be hard-pressed to convince me low-carb doesn't help you eliminate the water weight more than higher-carb, and when you fall off, it does seem like "eat one biscuit, gain it back" to me.

I'm not claiming it's ALL water. He has said on his show many times that "People can and do lose weight on these plans..." then proceeds to lump them in with other plans when used as "diets" or quick fixes.

BTW, I realize you hadn't said "bashing". My comment was more directed at Banditos claim.
