The Atkins Diet certainly helps one lose weight, but so does using ephedra, smoking crack, or spending 2 years in a P.O.W. camp.

I always knew Romulans were not as logical as their Vulcan cousins, and your statement confirms this. Senator Pardek

Surely, you jest :) I think this diet has gotten a bad rap. I've been on Atkins many times in the past 20 years and have always had success. It's not ONLY meat. You get meat, fish, eggs, dairy, etc. for a while, then you DO get fruits, veggies & breads. Yes, it is limited at first, but if you persevere, the diet pays off in weight loss and lots of energy.
