Hello, All,
Again, I’m going to cross-post this on a couple of low-carb groups. Just want to get a bunch of opinions.
I’m just wondering what y’all have been reading for low-carb education. I’m picking up “New Atkins for a New You” (NANY) and “Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution” (DANDR) at the library today. When I finish those, I’m going to get “Why We Get Fat (and what to do about it)” by Gary Taubes, and “Good Calories, Bad Calories,” also by Taubes (I checked that one out a couple of years ago and didn’t make it through, it’s pretty dense). I’m also slowly working my way through “Fathead” on You-Tube, and will be checking out some other vids by Tom Naughten (sp?), and I think I saw that Gary Taubes has a bunch of lectures posted on You-Tube as well. So I have the beginning of a nice pool of educational resources already.
Just wondering what other books, magazines, blogs, web sites, documenteries, etc., y’all may use as references and resources. I just want to learn more about this WOE. I know it works (at least it did before, and is now) for me. But, I can always stand to learn more! So, please post your favorite resources! I can’t promise I’ll read, listen to, view, or whatever, them all in the next 2 weeks, but I’ll slowly get to them, and it will give us all something to talk about! .
That’s about it for now. Have an awesome day, all!!!!!
Peace,
Tom

The very first thing I read before low carbing was Letter On Corpulence, by William Banting, published in 1869. I stumbled upon it by accident, but became interested in low carb after reading it.
Here's the PDF version of the pamphlet:
