It
may seem so. However, consider the latest news in low carb dieting:
more than 50% of American low carb dieters have given up and currently
only 10% of all dieters adhere to Atkins, South Beach, Zone, and the
like.

however well planned and meant, kept recruiting new dieters while
keeping the old ones on the wagon. Then it seems that low carb dieting
