    Congrats on your success, and great job!

    My only other nitpick not already mentioned is the "Quinoa is awesome" -- not really. I fell into the healthfood bandwagon on this one and was incredibly disappointed. It's massively overpriced now because of how popular it's gotten, and tastes no different than grits or polenta. Sure people tout it as some kind of miraculous wonder-carb (most of the reasoning applies to plenty other foods as well) but in general I think you can accomplish the same recipes with rice or grits =) But as always, to each their own!

    Great job. But people don't understand that if you do not eat sugar/carbs you will die.

    Yes I've been guilty of going overboard with the low carb fads in the past. And all it accomplished was a short period of weight loss and then regaining it all and more. I just needed to remove the unnecessary sugar from my diet. I have cut out over processed white flour and other foods filled with corn syrup for over a year now and rarely miss it!
