...rest of their lives. Dr. Robert Atkins, a modishly dressed Manhattan physician who operates out of a plush East Side office, believes that overweight is the result of the body's inability to metabolize carbohydrates properly. He allows his patients such dietary don'ts as mayonnaise and heavy cream, butter, steaks and lobster, but limits them to a maximum of 40 grams of carbohydrates daily. Dr. Charles Roland of the Mayo Clinic says that "despite Atkins' sweeping generalizations and exuberant confidence, his thesis rests largely on unproven assumptions." --TIME...
...weight-loss program that seems to defy nutritional wisdom. Most health experts advise you to favor carbohydrates, found in everything from fruits to grains, while going easy on the protein and fat.

In addition to frying the occasional peanut butter-and-jelly sandwich, Smith has been caught on camera putting Cheez Whiz on a pickle. At the go-cart place, Smith, on the second day of her diet, attempts to eat a piece of celery, which she tries to peel. If you catch only one episode of her show, I'm guessing it should...
...know exactly how this stew will taste, but I am pretty sure it will include toothpicks. While I am chopping, I take my first bite of hardtack, the unspoilable bread substance the corps took with them. It's whole wheat flour, salt, water and a drop of butter, baked very crisp.
