I'm cutting and posting this here because I know we have some NYC area members on this board. Hope you guys give them the straight scoop and it doesn't turn out to be another Atkins bash
Have Atkins Diet Horror or Success Stories? Reporter wants to talk to you
I am a reporter for a NYC daily newspaper doing a story on the popularity of the Atkins and other low-card diets. As this is a lifestyle story, I'm looking to interview people in the NYC area who have personal experience (or know someone who does) in any/all of the following areas:
--Horror story: has the Atkins or other low-carb diet adversely affected your health in any way over the past year?
--Success story: have you recently lost a good amount of weight as a direct result of being on the Atkins Diet?
--Do you have any favorite NYC-area restaurants and/or food stores that cater to low-carb diets?
--How about health clubs, personal trainers, etc. – do they in any way cater to your low-carb diet?
--In what other ways have you altered your lifestyle to accommodate a low-carb diet?
If you can provide information on any/all of the following topics, please email me asap at <precchia at nypost.com>, as my deadline is Friday, Aug. 22 by noon – though the sooner I hear from people, the better.
Thank you.
