Yea, I watch the report on NBC Nightly News. It was the first time that I saw a report that was boldly taking a pretty strong pro-Atkins stand! Of course there were the wishy washy phrases (ie. this is short term... longer term tests need to be done, etc.) but WOW--a major leap in the right direction! The president of the American Heart Association said that "the organization will reconsider the Atkins diet as more research results become available." I never thought I'd hear THAT from HIM!

It sort of implied that the half that followed the Atkins WOE did so at induction levels the entire time... Did anyone else get that impression? (It said they kept carb limits at less than 20 g of carbs per day.)
