Critics
If you want to learn about low-carb diets (e.g. the Atkins Diet, Protein Power Diet, South Beach Diet, or other low carb plans), this is a great place to start. The most important tip we can give you is this: no one diet works for every "body." In fact, we've come to believe that no one diet works for any one "body" at every stage of life. You'll fine-tune your eating plan as you learn what works for you and what doesn't. We want to help.
The route to success with low carb dieting (or any weightloss program) is to understand that you are making permanent lifestyle changes—not simply going through the motions "until you lose the weight." So stop thinking "diet" and start finding your Low Carb Zen, baby!
My Life As A Low-Carb Lunatic

"The Low Carb Craze..." It's the buzz of the year, that little phrase. Blamed for everything from soggy profits at Krispy Kreme to pasta company bankruptcies to orange juice slumps.
Well, if low carb is a craze, then I'm a lunatic. And many of you are, too.
I'm assuming that YOU don't like the innuendo here any more than I do. Like, we're all a bunch of lemmings blindly going off the low carb cliff. Us stupid, fat American consumers—we'll fall for anything that sounds good, won't we?
The Facts About Low-Carb
Submitted by LCandrea on Fri, 12/21/2007 - 19:42.Dear Low Carb Eaters and 'Concerned Corporations' (see below),
I have some VERY important and timely things to talk to you about today.
No doubt you have been exposed to the recent press coverage of statements made by an organization called "Partnership for Essential Nutrition". (You can read their full press release on their website. You probably heard about this group through your local Annoying Co-Worker, who made sure to bring the "big news" to your attention (loudly) in the middle of the company lunchroom. "I told you that diet was going to kill you," he or she gloated, as you tried to eat your chicken and green salad in peace. "The evidence is mounting!"
Stifle! Or Surviving the Assault and Defending Your WOE

(Note: WOE stands for Way Of Eating)
Yanno, It never ceases to amaze me. I have been following this woe for nearly 16 months and I am a *shining* example of proof that this woe (way of eating) works. But recently, I have come under the attack of an LC WOE critic who is determined to try and change my mind.
Imagine that.
