Default MTV True Life: I'm on a Diet...

I was watching MTV TRue Life: I'm on a diet. 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.

How is that low carb done properly? Could you imagine subjecting yourself to that torture? Why wouldn't MTV include those who were doing a TRUE low carb lifestyle (I know it's not a diet, but it would make a way better weight loss special than what they showed).

Also, they included a teen who crash dieted to becoming Miss Teen America and a guy who starved himself to make wrestling weight.

They say WE are the unhealthy ones???

Aren't vegetables IMPORTANT to this type of a lifestyle?
