Video of Atkins of Fox News Detroit

[Monroe]

This morning me and my dad decided to go to walmart to buy a 55 gallon fish tank for some reason. Well we get back home this morning and I turn the news on and they started talking about atkins. I watched it and I was like man I wish I would have recorded that. Well DUH I rememberd, I have TiVo!! So I transfer it on my computer and wah-lah here you go. I thought they we're gonna dog on atkins or somethin, but I was wrong! Everyone should take a look at this, especially new comers or critics.

Hey thanks Monroe...nice to hear the Dr. saying he'd be more supportive of this WOL (my Dr. is such a trendsetter lol)...

Monroe, thanks! I'm glad they stressed the importance of doing the actual atkins plan, not just "your own" version of it!

I wonder if this will start another wave of "fad" dieters?

I really hope it does. There was another special on it a few days ago comparing atkins to 9 others showing the difference, and they got to the number 1 diet and it was atkins! I would have loved to get that one too but I wasnt at my house.

I am happy to see that this report was possitive, a couple of days ago they reported on this study, also on fox, and managed to turn it in such a way that it was still coming out negative ("they go back to 'normal' food and gain everything back plus some, they clogg themselves up" etc etc)
I am really hoping this indeed wil start a new wave of interest in the diet and people will start to understand what it really is about and stop bashing those who live this woe.

Thanks for sharing. It was a good report and glad the Dr. stressed that it is important to do the REAL THING, not a home-made version of it. My news also did a report on the comparision of all the diets, but the newscasters were very lame and made fun of Atkins. I'm happy some of the networks were positive and open-minded.

There have been a number of more positive reports on Atkins in the British Media recently - perhaps we are in for a renaissance?

In this recent thread

Fat Man, Thin Man - a BBC Programme

I quote a BBC TV programme on dieting and men. The programme told us one of the biggest British supermarket chains, Tesco, is about to launch a diet website for men - one of the four diets supported will be Atkins. I await with interest.

(Rich, it may be worth watching Tesco's shelves - they may have some useful products, but since I am living in Germany at the moment, it will be no good to me.)

Nice to see Atkins portrayed in a positive light these days, and the plug about "doing it the proper way" and not one's own version. About time! Thanks for posting Monroe.

Yep, the most important thing of atkins, is actually doing atkins, not a close to atkins version, you get the best results!!

Monroe,

You got it right. For us that have lived the life on Atkins can attest first hand the wonders the Low Carb life can be like. I am still sadden about all the those still that are against this proven diet. I wonder why those other ney-sayer's out there are so set against a diet that can lead to reducing weight, lowering blood pressure, lowering blood sugar (diatetes), lowering triglycerides, lowering the bad cholesteral, and rasing the good cholesteral. It is like if you slammed my hand with a Hammer, would I NOT cry out? Maybe they need to do a reality check on those who doubt this program. Or at least hit them over the head with a hammer. Wowsers!!
When will the News agencies contact one of us followerers. We all must have documents from our doctors that Atkins is the Best program around.

Come on News-peeps, read some of these wonderful posts here and do some real research.
