I, for instance, do a lot of exercise but have found that without it my body remains the same (of course just not toned) and that might not be the case for someone different. we all have different body types so the ideal thing to do would be to find out what works for you.

In my experience, such ad hominem vitriol as is included in this letter - along with some blatant grammatical errors - result in nothing more than the letter being dismissed by the recipient.<br/><br/>I agree whole-heartedly with writing to editors, publications, or authors who continue to misrepresent the principles of controlled-carbohydrate dieting and who continue to demonstrate a lack of understanding of basic nutritional science; however, such responses must meet the utmost standards in grammar and ettiquette - and ought also to include links to bona fide sources corroborating the position of the writer - if they are to be taken seriously, and are to have any hope of making a difference.<br/><br/>This understanding is why blogs such as yours are so incredibly helpful. History will eventually prove us right (though, hopefully it does so before we lose an entire generation to obesity, diabetes, and heart disease). Thank you so much for your contributions!<br/><br/>(By the way, this is my first comment here. I only recently found your blog. I am a low-carber for over seven years now, and I will put my results - and my bloodwork and overall health - up against any non-low-carber, anytime!)

I've said it many times before and I'll say it again: the Calorie Theory might be a established scientific fact - but the Calorie Theory <i>as applied to nutritional science</i> is absurd.

What works for one person may (or not) work for another, what works for you one time may not work another time. I recently read a paper that showed that exercise for obese people had no effect on weight loss, but the post you wrote said it had. Conclusion: everyone's different.
