Scientists know that on a molecular level, different types of starch and different types of fat have varying effects when they hit the body. But in terms of weight loss, low-fat diets and low-carb diets overall are equally effective (and, most of the time, neither will help you keep the weight off long-term), says Walter Willett, chair of the department of nutrition at Harvard School of Public Health.
Emphasis mine. There is, obviously, more to the article, and I encourage you to click through and read it. However, the part in bold really struck me. Did a mainstream magazine actually just admit that diets don't work in the long run? Somebody pinch me!
Please remember to vote in the primary. IMO, the most important race is the 5-candidate race to see who will take on Saxby Chambliss in November. I think Rand Knight is the best candidate. Please consider voting for him. I know a lot of folks around here choose to take a Republican ballot in the primary so that they have a say in local races, but please consider voting in the Democratic primary. It will also help Bill Gillespie, who is running against Jack Kingston, with his fundraising if his numbers are good in the primary.
