Quirkyalone I tried the low carb thing and it worked pretty well. I got kinda underweight this last spring because I was working so much, but now I'm just normal and eating healthy- lots of veggies, fish, brown rice ..

I know all about that bread! I was practically addicted to it, as well as noodles and pasta. Anything processed and white can be a villain in nutrition, as far as my vast dietetic studies have shown me. The key is not just the carbs you consume, but the sugars, and how quickly your body converts the carbs to sugar and then, if you don't use it, to fat. Virtually unprocessed carbs as found in steel cut oatmeal, for example, are hardly the same as carbs found in French/Italian and "artisan" breads made from processed white flour. Hemlocker

The Atkins craze over extended itself with its own food brand. As for
Atkins the man - he slipped on ice and banged his head three years ago. I think the heart disease was an urban legend, like eating nerds and coca cola.
