He didn't "come at you." He simply offered advice, etc. And in a rather nice way, I would add. Let me get this straight. You think "Reality check time" is "a rather nice way"?!? Maybe there's a regional language difference at work here. Maybe there's a generation gap at work here. I can't really say about that. What I CAN say is "Reality Check" comes across to me as a HUGE insult. It's not just a mild "You're a bit off target here" or even a flat "You're wrong", it's "YOU ARE SO F**KING MESSED UP THAT YOU ARE OUT OF TOUCH WITH REALITY, I.E. YOU ARE CRAZY". It's also a HELL of a condescending attitude - that he gets to define what reality actually is. It says it's over and done with, that no discussion is allowed and that my opinion is worthless. Well, enough is enough. It doesn't even matter at this point who is right and who is wrong. It doesn't matter if it's a regional difference in language, a generation gap or something else. It's clear that I won't find the type of support and encouragement that I'm looking for in this newsgroup. I'll look elsewhere. |

BY HIS OWN STANDARDS I FIT INTO THE 2 POUNDS/WEEK CATEGORY. Please, please, please learn from your previous experiences then. What actually happened in the past? There's a reason you're restarting. What happened? How fast did you regain? In the Atkins books there's a discussion of suseptibility. Understand that high suseptibility means both "easy come" and "easy go". Earlier I did the discussion of one bite hurting. How hard it is to figure out "One bite of what?". A bite of a specific food that is a binge trigger for you? Some of us have them some of us don't. They have trigger immediate binges or they can push us down a slippery slope. It is important to count the discovery of each one as a victory. Beat yourself up over a binge and it sets up a damaging precedent. A bite of food above a specific glycemic load? Happens for some of use not for others. Has to do with insulin reaction. Again it is important to count the discovery of it as a victory. And yet not taking that bite of the food on the next rung on schedule has its own set of problems. Decreasing mood from cortisol. Decreasing metabolism from T3 and leptin. The concept of CCLL is to avoid these down sides and also to discover the upper limits. "One bite of what?" is in both directions. It's the puzzle of low carbing that it's not no carbing. It's the puzzle of Atkins that you need to exceed your limits to find your limits. |

Actually, asshole, I was trying to keep Harold from overreacting to Doug's reply. But Harold's having none of it, which is too bad. It's been kind of enjoyable here without your constant ankle-biting and childish bickering, don't you think? Maybe you could do everyone a favor and stay away permanently? Nah, that would be too much to hope for.
