In this article and others I have read, and in talking with my own doctor, I find that there seems to be a common misconception that a low-carb WOE is actually a no-carb diet.

My doctor had pretty much the same thing to say about low-carbing -- it's not sustainable.

I disagree. A no- or very very low-carb diet may not be sustainable, but a WOE rich in proteins and fats and limited in carbs to what you really need is sustainable. There are plenty of people who do that when they achieve their goals and go to maintenance eating.

Also, the author mentions people's feeling queasy and light-headed. I never have. I haven't felt better in my whole life, including when I was a kid.
