First of all, let me say, I am on a modified Atkins diet. The modified part is low fat. It has worked for me. I has lost almost 70lbs on this diet. Yes Gris, I have had the Broccoli N cheese meal as part of the diet. I love it!!
I mostly eat steaks, pork, salads & broccoli. I am starting to see more and more "Carb Smart" foods, even though more and more people are bashing it. I have tried the Weight Watchers diet and it did not work for me.
My diet actually is prescribed to me by a doctor who has it as part of a program he has developed. I take some medicine in the morning that supresses my appetite and at night that takes my cravings away. I used to be a regular soda freak. Taco Bell used to be my chef. My blood pressure was 190/120. I am 31 years old. I was at one point 304 lbs. I am now around 224. I am working out to get rid of the rest of the flab. I feel much healthier. People are noticing the weight loss. My self esteem is much higher now.
I will say this in closing. Like all diets, it works for some people, for others it wont. Go with what works for you. It really is your choice.

The last one is a line in the show. It is a very funny line. You have to watch the episode to understand the phrase.
