This is crap

So here's this story on CNN.com saying, "Low-carb diet beats other diets in study." You could say that the Atkins approach -- low carbs -- beat the low-fat approach, but I'm here to tell you this is a load of duck turd. Both of these diets will doom you to failure. You will lose weight with either, but unless you address the basic math of weight managment -- where combining calorie intake minus calorie expenditure (i.e. exercise) is compared to the base level of calories your body requires each day -- you will not reach a long-term healthy solution. And you'll get fat again. Listen people: It's not carbs, and it's not fats. It's calories. Do not take in more calories than your body needs. It's that simple. And when you exercise, you can take in even more calories. And that's good. Again, there are no quick fixes, no gimmicks. I bet you know that.
