Wow, what a wonderful participation from Fiona, Debbie and Karen on the subject of carb addiction.
I hate the reference to the word "addiction". To me it represents most things that effect your well being in a bad way. And I agree that certain things should not be touched if your addicted, ie: liquor, drugs, and cigarettes. But I fail to see how carbs fall into that category.
Can you honestly say that moderation in carb. consumption is really bad? Are you certain that If you continue on a maximum 20 to 60 gram carb. diet the rest of your life, that there will be no ill effects? Does anybody really know what a minimum carb diet should be to stay healthy?
FOOD FOR THOUGHT!

Joe
P.S.- I was certainly delighted to hear about the many healthy results reported above, that have been accomplished by sticking to the LC WOL.
I am going to continue on this charted road towards losing weight, and hopefully wean my self off the beta blocker. aspirin. and nitro patch which is required to reduce my hypertension.
