Just as I suspected.
I think I have seen 3 or 4 programmes plus snippets in programmes of people "giving low carb the benefit of the doubt" only to totally screw it up.
They dont read enuff literature about it, they dont study a particular book, and I think half the time they are already overly conscious of the negative vibes from certain areas about low carbing to be open minded enuff to have the willpower to try it honestly.Which is a real shame.
Britain in particular has very little support for this way of eating, I know how much I relied on the internet for tips, recipes and general support when I first started. One basic such thing I picked up is the amount of water needed to be consumed to get maximum health and results from low carbing.
The last programme I saw was about a few weeks ago bout an hour long about low carbing and was presented by a bloke [sorry dunno name of programme or name of bloke or err which channel I kinda stumbled on it!
] and it looked at how celebs had picked up on this "diet" what it involved and also had an overweight lassie going to try it. Well she tried it but found the first week hell with the sugar/caffeine withdrawel,missed her cereal too much and didnt like eating constant grease and fat! Like you have to eat bacon dripping in fat everyday cos the book tells you
Arf.
She was losing weight to do a fitness test for the police....anyone see that one? It did have good bits in it such as a woman expressing how this way of eating helped PCOS so much she became regular naturally and conceived...however they left you wanting more info...
I would love it if someone out there somewhere has the knowhow to present and direct a programme properly including all there is about low carb...any media students?
o dear rambled on enuff but I finish with knowing that this way of life aint for everybody and effects people differently, just wish information was better expressed.
