If you want a good scare, check out the new Frontline documentary: "The Jesus Factor". It goes into detail about what a religious fanatic we have for a president.
My sleep schedule is going from weird to insane. I've been awake since 1:00 am and it's now almost 8.

There are a lot of good websites around that offer the basics.Type in low carb on google and you will find plenty of peo and con sites. Here's one that seems to cover some basics pretty well.low carb info. The low carb cafe, which you will find on googles search has a great board with many helpful people.
As for other free sources, of course there's always the library. I would always recommend Dr Atkins book, as it covers a lot of info on why low carbing works. Keep in mind it is the strictest of the low carb diets, however, especially in the induction phase, which is used to get your body over it's carb cravings.You add more carbs as you go through the diet phases.
One misconception people have is you just eat meat till you are bloated. Wrong. You eat until you are comfortably satisfied, just like any diet.
As I stated, I went on the diet for health reasons, out of necessity. It's not a fad to me, nor do I consider it a fad. Some people abuse it, as they will any diet. But the scientific reasons behind it are solid. Eat less carbs, particularly the starchy and refined carbs. You stabilize your blood sugar, causering your body to stop sending out false hunger signals. It also allows your metabolism to stabilize and act normally, thus burning more calories. The added bonus being, since you are not over-loading on carbs, your body burns more fat.It will never burn fat as long as it has a constant supply of quick burning carbs. Plus it stores any unused carbs, converting them into fat. So if you eat a no fat treat that is loaded with sugar, your body will still make fat out of it.
I don't feel any diet is perfect for everyone, but this one sure saved me and works for me. Have a great day! Tony
I took my brother to see his son run in a track meet in Iowa yesterday. Ben ran four events and did great. Track meets are always fun to me.
