I also am a tried and failed Atkins person....not only that, I tried it twice, and failed just as miserably the second time. Schwarzbein definitely seems to be more of what I need to be happy in a weight loss program, too!
Leave it to the media to feature all those hamburger and French Fries on the show. I am constantly amazed how they can miss the point entirely sometimes and I was disappointed that the show seemed to give all the recognition to Atkins. It would have had a chance of being more credible if they had interviewed more people who already were successfully living the LC life.
I missed the Dateline show last week. I wish I had known about it. There was also a short segment on CBS last night before 20/20 that I stumbled upon mid way through the show. I wished I would have known about it so that I could have seen it from the beginning,
I hope you are able to convince your sister to try tSP. I noticed that you started your "road to becoming healthy" the day after I did this past week and are also happy with it so far. Atkins was just too restrictive for me, at least with tSP I can have some of the fruit I love so much. My own sister lives in Phoenix and has been a on-again-off again Atkins person, too. I have not discussed tSP with her yet, but plan to.
Thanks for your reply.
