BTW, it is very difficult, nearly impossible to gain weight on Atkins diet, or more precisely, to gain fat.

I have been low-carbing successfully for years now. But I tried the Atkins diet back in the sixties with a different result. I got the Atkins book that included both the Quick Weight Loss Diet and the Quick Inches Off Diet. The latter is a vegetarian diet. I took one look at the former, ascertained that beef, mushrooms, and sour cream were all permissible, and proceeded to stuff myself with Beef Stroganoff all day every day for a week or so, by which time I had gained so much weight I had to quit. I later had success on the latter diet, which got rid of the saddle bags on my otherwise great figure.

So it is possible to gain wait on the Atkins Diet. <gg>

The reason I like low-carbing is because I'm not hungry. Carbs make me terribly hungry. It's really a miracle, IMO.
