No one who follows Atkins gives up carbs at all..if that's what you think it is..you need to re-read the book...I now eat 60 carbs per day and it's still rising as i continue.
I've been doing the WAY OF LIFE since april of this year...I do not crave..and I do not gorge..and I don't use food to make me feel better...that is what makes this plan so great..if you follow it CORRECTLY..you end up at high carb levels..eating balanced healthy meals consisting of natural foods.
You definately need to do some research..if you think 'low fat' foods which are 100% processed and filled with chemicals..are better for you then natural 100% pure foods..you might want to give your head a hard shake to knock some common sense into you.
Fat is not bad for your heart and Dr.A didn't have a heartattack..get your facts straight before you attempt an arguement.
