Dessert First

It was with no small amusement that I read recently of the drop in demand for low-carb products. If obesity weren’t such a problem in this country, it’d be comical how lemming-like people run from one diet to the next.
I took my own stab at a low-carb life for a few days at the beginning of the year, not because I really wanted to “do Atkins,” but because I knew I’d gotten too hooked on sugar. After reading Atkins, I tried to follow a version of his diet, with no carbohydrates but those few from veggies, in the hopes that going cold-turkey off sugar would cut the cravings.
