    No, I'm saying that everyone on this site is capable of following a link and making up their own mind.

    Here's the problem, if someone links to a nonsensical blogger, article, movie, book etc and the person actually believes what they just watched or read, they've just become more ignorant on the subject. So how does that help the person?

    Im totally 100% agreeing with mommapeach on this one...And Im not a "low carber" by any means...but a "lower than before carber"..lol. When I eat whole foods that are filled with more protein and fat I feel way more satisfied all day than if I eat loads of fruit and bread... I've even noticed a huge change just switching away from bananas to lower sugar fruits like berries. And instead of snacking on fruit all day like I did before (it actually dramatically increased my appetite!) I will eat more meats, cheeses, and nuts. I'm a recovering binge eater so I find this way of eating WAY easier to control my cravings and appetite in general.. That's just my 2 cents on why I think lower carb/ higher fat and protein diets work. I haven't really craved anything sweet or carby since I've started.

    You're not the MFP Daddy, Acg. It's not your job to "help" anyone. Offer up your opinion, let everyone know you think it's complete BS and back it up with all the information you want--that's a good thing--but there's no need to be a **** head about it. Just my opinion, of course. I realize a lot of people are just here for the laughs.

    **Oh and I've also NOT CHANGED my protein intake with the increase of fat and decrease of carbohydrates. So I know its not just adding protein
