-Caveat Lector-
Dear Andrew,
Diet is as bad as religion when it comes to high emotion,
etc. I do not want to be disrespectful in any way - someone
I very much like & who helped me a lot when I needed help
is on Atkins & I never criticize it to her (tho I do worry
about her) - but I would suggest that you read FOOD
REVOLUTION by John Robbins. It is actually a good read
(except the painful revelations about the horrible way
factory farm animals live their brief lives and die their
terrifying and sometimes agonizing deaths) and - most
important - is based on research/data. I know people can
loose weight on Atkins but all the research indicates that
it is a very unhealthy way of eating. For one thing,
animal products now are laced with many poisons. And all
that fat & protein stress your body. The animals most like
(great apes) us are 90% or better vegan.
Another good book is EAT MORE, WEIGH LESS by Dr. Dean
Ornish, I think is his name. The very low fat vegan diet
(cooked & raw, which is easier than all raw) lets you eat
all you want, loose weight or maintain a good weight, and
also is good for cardio-vascular health and health
generally. I have a weight problem also and maintain a good
weight effortlessly on vegan diet.

Just to add another note to nutritional conspiracies -
I finally started losing weight after many years fruitless struggle
by starting on the atkins diet in which you purge all sugar
and most carbohydrate from your intake -
I found the results miraculous and am losing 1 pound per day
this diet is definitely carnivorous - but the incredible results
are not based on Low fat intake - but on low sugar intake
It turns the established ideas on obesity on their head.
and proves that the problem is high sugar
