If memory serves me Gina Kolata wrote a book some years back in which she concluded that losing weight long term was a virtual impossibility. Seems she still holds onto this notion. It's a complicated business, weight loss, but for there to be any chance of understanding obesity people need to try to shed all their assumptions and take as objective a look at things as possible. I don't think Gina Kolata has done that. My conclusion has been, for quite some time, it's the carbs, but what do I know? The New York Times doesn't ask me to write articles for them.
