You lost 80 pounds and you're complaining? :-P~~ You must not have
eaten enough Atkins bars. That'll teach ya ;-)

I would take those 80 pounds back in a heartbeat if I could have my
kidneys back. Your statement typifies what is so wrong with Atkins and
other fad diets.

Bungie cords dude! Bungie cords and duct tape are the secret to
keeping your kidneys. Didn't you get the "Secrets of the Order of
Atkins" book? You know, the one you were supposed to send away for
with 100 Atkins bar wrappers and $9.95 P&H?

I would be curious to know whether A) MD had any kidney trouble previous
to the diet, and B) whether MD actually followed the diet as Dr. Atkins
wrote it, or if he -- as so many -- decided that he should stay on the
Induction phase for fast-fast-fast weight loss.

Basing my statements on a Google search (as my posts to MD have been as
well) MD is pulling our collective leg. If I believed MD was on
dialysis I certainly wouldn't be saying the things I've been saying in
this thread.

Based on your Google search, you figure mdginzo has been pretending
to have experienced kidney failure, requiring dialysis, for the past
year or so?

That's just weird.

Yes, and also according to Carmen, dialysis patients can't eat pizza or
drink alcohol because, I dunno, they might shrivel up and die or
something if they do.
