Hi BlackHawk
You are so right....I definitely agree with your views...
I have never been one to advocate these Fad Diets....
as they all work for the time u r on them, very few manage to maintain them after ....
I am certainly not a lover of the Atkins Diet , never have been
have seen what it has done to some friends of mine.
One lost loads of weight and then ended up in hospital with severe stomach cramps. She claimed it wasnt the diet , I am sure it was.
As mentioned b4, healthy lifestyle, eating whatever as long as its in moderation should be more than adequate.
There are instances where people have to diet or eat special diets for health reasons. They maybe diabetic or have heart problems etc and are advised by the doctors to do so. Usually these people are advised to see a nutritionist and advised to eat sensibly etc.
