FYI - there is a blog entry by Tara Parker Pope on this over at the New York Times. She completely missed the point that none of the low carb dieters in the study actually ate low-carb.

Several commenters on the thread have pointed this out, but she has completely ignored them. The majority of comments are the smugly thin idiots who chant "calories-in-calories-out" constantly as if they knew all along. One suspects that they, like Pope, didn't apply anything close to a critical eye to the study or its particulars.

When the New York Times is this lazy, the future of journalism is poor, at best.
