I don't need to go on a diet, but I'm pretty well-schooled in the Atkins deal. I've seen people who have abused it (bacon 3 times a day, no fruits and veggies, etc) and their blood pressure has skyrocketed. These people give the diet the bad name. If you're responsible, then it can work for you. On the other hand, there's really nothing wrong with cutting down on carbs--for a relatively inactive society, we still eat as if we're doing serious work in the factory or on the farm. I'm sure we can all cut down on our carbohydrate intake.
