Guest, dear, go and do some research and see what the long-term eating plan is for the Atkins Diet. It is not as radical as many people choose to believe, when they don't check their facts before making definitive statements.

My hubby chooses to believe certain things about the Atkins Diet but stubbornly refuses to read the book, look it up on the 'Net, etc and stubbornly chooses to believe "someone who once told him blah blah blah".

Excuse my frustration here, but how can anyone discuss anything rationally without first checking the facts? :-|
