Atkins' diet makes me angry! I'm studying Nutrition and Dietetics, so in 2 years I will be a qualified Dietician/Nutritionist (hopefully!!!)

Anything in large amounts is fattening.... therefore if you eat kilos of meat each day, you will eventually put on weight. Eat 50 bananas a day (not that anyone could stomach that!) and you will eventually put on weight. See the pattern?

The most sensible thing anyone can do is eat everything in moderation, and of course exercise. The reason obesity is in 'epidemic' proportions in the USA and Australia is not due to what's being eating (ok to some extent it is) but the amounts of what's being eaten, and of course the fact that many people spend the night sitting in front of the tv.

Simple equation:

Ok... thats enough complaining from me....

Sorry!
