Guest guest Posted June 30, 2004 Report Share Posted June 30, 2004 At the movies the other night. They had this huge add for C2 and I was thinking cool, some new flavor of Coke, nope it's coke with half the carbs! I guess if the beer companies are doing it they might as well do it to. You can check it out on Coke's website. I haven't been to GNC but that seems pretty ridiculous. I thought they are supposed to be a fitness store and cater to athletes? Most athletes want and need carbs. What is ticking me off is that most of the good Snackwells cookies are being replaced with low carb/ sugar free stuff. I don't mind that they are making the stuff but don't be replacing the low fat stuff with it. It could be that our stores are just not stocking the low fat varieties anymore. If they take away the Devils Food cookies I am going to really pissed! What I find funny is that I do not know a single person who has maintained a healthy weight on Atkins. I know LOTS of people that are doing it but none ever reach a healthy weight. The one person I know that successfully did Atkins is my MIL and she has since gained back about 40 pounds. She started Atkins over 15 years ago and she swears it works and that it's perfectly healthy (if you do it right), but she can never seem to stick with it. I think it's just to unrealistic. For Weight Watchers I know several people that have kept their weight of for over three years and no they are not all leaders. I also know people that have gone back off of Weight Watchers but I still think it is doable for life. What I find really amusing is at family picnics my husbands cousins will all be telling you how Atkins is perfectly healthy and that it's a great diet plan. Yet they are all obese! I have to try so hard not to say " If Atkins is so great why are you all still fat? " Kris Re: Low carb Kris- Where did you see that? OMG that is just completely nuts! This is getting very annoying.
