They told one of the ladies on it that she should do a combination of "Low fat" and "low carb" with restricted salt. I got that. But her dinners were rice and boiled chicken, her lunches were sweetened fruits and cottage cheese... Everything she ate was disgusting and flavorless, and I saw her eat NO veggies.

Aren't vegetables IMPORTANT to this type of a lifestyle?
Vegetables -- yes, important.

FAT -- a high fat intake -- even more so.

You cannot do "low carb, low fat" over an extended time period. The result will be sickness... severe physical malaise as the body cannot thrive without the essential nutrients -- and energy -- found in fat.

In LIFE WITHOUT BREAD, I believe Allan and Lutz describe an elegant method of executing political prisoners in Argentina (or another country). They feed them LEAN MEAT -- nothing else. Eventually the prisoners die of starvation. Had they been fed FAT MEAT -- no problem. They would have survived.

That said, rice and sweetened fruit do not a low carb diet make. Sheesh.
