I have very little faith in the high protein low carb diet.

Namely, as effective as it is, I can't belive that it can be healthly over long periods of time. Anytime you skew your diet that much, and basicly cut out an entire food group(s), you run a very high risk of malnutrition. Several friends have tried to go with this diet, and a few months in were complaining of joint pain and the such. After going back to a normal diet, this went away. I suspect they had given themselvs a case of vitimin C deficiency because of the lack of anything but meat and nuts.

Obviously, they didn't plan thier diet very well. But, I still belive that a high carb, low meat diet with exercise is the healthiest way to lose weight (or, more likely fat). Maybe not the easiest, but hey, I like bread.
