Hi Shelly,

Your post is funny.

First, you bash my opinions.

Then, you agree with my conclusion. Hahahah...



And finish your intolerant attack with the statement:



ROFLOL (rolling on the floor laughing out loud)

A good debate and a challenge to one's thinking is one of the best features of this site. Read my post more closely. I said, "Atkins' style low-carbohydrate diet." I did not say Atkins only. I consider all of the diets mentioned on this site as a low-carbohydrate style, except ZONE.

Non-starchy vegetables are considered a low-carbohydrate food by all the low-carb diet books, and I was not suggesting that they not be included in one's diet. However, one can not eat 200 grams of carbs from non-starchy vegetables on a 2000 calorie diet as proposed by Dr. Sears in the ZONE without getting high-density carbohydrate food which are highly restricted by all the other low-carb authors.

Personally, I am very intolerant of the myths, distortions and lies that are blasted to the masses by the major media. Jennifer Warner's article on WebMD is a great example of a major distortion.
