I must admit that freaked me out a little.
I asked her the difference between the diabetic diet and this diet she felt that the diabetic diet was more well rounded and not so high in protein.
I am so bummed and feel a trip the McDonalds coming on....


Hmm, didn't you say she has a degree in BS? That's exactly what she gave you, pure BS. She doesn't have any scientific facts to support her claim, so the only argument is voodoo! Tell her to visit our site and click on the "Studies" section, so she can read some research in support of the low-carb way. And by the way, our ancestors have followed this WOL for thousends of years as hunters/gatherers. So technically we have waited much more than the new low-fat/low-cal fads.

Cheer up

Wa'il
