Heh heh... yeah. He had me up until:

I agree with his opinion that calories *do* count, but I disagree with his discrediting of the Atkins program because Dr A. supposedly says you can eat all the protein and fat you want. I read DANDR, and I don't remember reading that part. I remember it being more like, "eat until you are satisfied but not stuffed." Eating like that, I barely get *enough* calories in, let alone too many.

>>"There's no such thing as a "fast" or "slow" metabolism despite what most people believe. "

What?! I'd really like to know what he means by that. I've *dieted* my way to slow metabolism. I wasn't *imagining* the icy cold hands and feet, the blue fingernails, the low blood pressure and heart rate, constantly being cold and tired... And hasn't he ever heard of hypothyroidism?

Still interesting, though. Might be a good read if it's ever at my library.
