Damn. (what else can I say, except L-A-W-S-U-I-T?)

Man, I just stumbled upon an idea for an extremely low-carb bread; I mean less than 6g for a whole loaf. I'm going to do some experimenting first, but once I pull this off I'm definitely drumming up investors. The standard low-carb bread atm is about 5 bucks a loaf and 4g per slice. Oh yeah...

I started this diet on May 26 and so far have lost around 40lbs. I clock in at 197 now, so about 15lbs to go. Prolly woulda been more except I am resuming the semblance of an exercise routine, so am creating muscle density as I go. I sure feel a lot better. Still am unable to determine what...

Yes, I do know, and I also know this: 1) I never cried a GC foul then or now; my President did. The fact is, there are no provisions in the GC as to what constitutes the acceptable public display of dead war criminals. There just aren't any. 2) By the time you shoot someone through the...

At the obvious risk of putting this topic back on track, it does appear to me that publicizing pictures of the dead Hussein sons creates an immense double standard. All they did was show some of our POWs on TV and the whole Bush administration was shouting "Geneva Convention violation!" Any way...

This inspired me to hunt up a low carb pizza dough recipe, and I found one here. Those who are interested will want to take a look through that site. They have literally thousands of low carb recipes that look pretty decent. Someone from this (the ET) forum emailed me a few good recipes and...

Not that you sound like an asshole or anything, but where I become unclear is exactly why you have invested such remarkable effort around here to adopt a personal crusade against the Atkins system in the first place. Your dad a doctor or something? Long as it's working for people and there are...

I just found something inspirational... Quote: No diet will remove all the fat from your body because the brain is entirely fat. Without a brain you might look good, but all you could do is run for public office. --Covert Bailey :)

I think the bottom line is every day that goes by and Hussein isn't captured is one more day we screwed up, and one more chance for someone to further organize underground resistance in his name.

Man, we had some people over for dinner this evening and they brought some of that Michelob Ultra low carb beer. I'll put it this way: There's two left and unless someone comes by I can pawn them off on, they'll become a permanent fixture in the fridge. Less than 3g of carbs per beer (as opposed...

I'll tell you what: Halitosis on this diet is certainly an issue. Throw garlic into the fray and you'll run people out of the room. If you're positioned to deal with people face-to-face all the time be sure to keep a box of sugar-free mints at the ready. Steer clear of Altoids though. .7g...

It's an interesting issue which can be pretty easily explained in one word everyone here can understand: Money. Like I mentioned before, where exactly do you think all these long term studies get funded from? The only reason substantial Atkins studies are happening now is because A) The...

Just my luck. I don't get CSPAN piped into my computer until next Wednesday...

One more thing I keep meaning to mention: Last week on GMA they had some doctor on there discussing various diet options (can't recall who he was). When asked about Atkins he was quick to point out the lack of clinical research, yet he did mention something interesting. He theorized the...

Oh, I have plenty of time to fight with FPC :D. Just having trouble conjuring the compulsion or reason to. Very interesting link FPC. Spent awhile wrapping my head around this: I'm just shy of 5'11" and feel my best in the 180-185 range, which puts me at about a 33-34" waist. I'm a lot more...

I am sorely disappointed how out of nine copy/pasted pages of 4 year old research, that's the best response you can come up with. Feel free to try again.

Umm... let's clear something up here: Almost everything you hear about any dieting system or latest food trend is a myth. The most perpetuating untruth is how the fat in your food makes you fat. I've been waiting years for it to die and it just won't go away. Subway is still preaching it just to...

Okay, That's a pretty comprehensive link. Thanks Chris.

I keep encountering this term around here and wonder if I'm misinterpreting it. I always thought scalping was pretty much a "Boiler Room" tactic permeating the Vancouver Exchange, yet some people tend to mention it so casually I figure either: A) I am misinterpreting what they're saying B)...

Getting the fat is fairly easy, mainly from cheeses and real butter. When I first started this thing though, what all that cheeses with hardly any fiber meant was constipation. Had to eat ExLax every day the first week before my body adjusted. After that I was fine though. My biggest problem...
