Exclamation Dateline NBC, Sunday, Jan4/04

Well go figger!

Dateline aired a program where they picked six people preparing for a class reunion, and put each of them on a different weight loss program: WW, exercise only, personal diet guru, SlimFast, hypnosis and yep...ATKINS. Well guess which one lost the most!?!

The Atkins man lost over a 100 pounds in just over nine months, and he looked and felt great.

He was the highest loser, but they awarded him second place. The winner was the exercise woman, even though she had severely injured her knee, and then re-injured it. She then ran the Hawaii marathon in 5:20. I mean, I admire her, but with knee supports and in pain????..geez...how is that going to be a lifetime change, other than possibly permanent knee problems?

I will be interested to see the followup show in a year. I want to know how her knees are, and how they all maintained, gained or continued to lose.
