You get no argument from me, B.G, but after a carb-free week, QW's blood pressure, usually on the high side, has improved! And she, and the others I know living like this, are active, energetic, upbeat and convivial! I'm wary, but trying to keep an open mind while I learn more.
I'm really interested in hearing from a few people who have used this strategy, succeeding or failing. Carb-free (I agree that what they're doing isn't strictly "Atkins") may not be getting as much press as it used to, but it still seems to be fairly popular. I can't understand it as a long term lifestyle option. Eventually, balanced nutrition and physical activity have to be the basis for long-term health. How have our post-Atkins friends adjusted to this? Did the weight bounce back? Are they still slim and (presumably) sexy?
