I bought this book today: The Paleo Diet by Loren Cordain, Ph.D.

I looked at Dr. Atkin's book, too -- but it seems like what the bookstore was stocking were not his actual books, but trend-off of his general philosophy designed to make more money for his brand. I didn't like them.
I have Cordain's book.

Atkins you can pick up for almost nothing at most thrift shops. People buy diet books and other self-help books and then get rid of them. I always wonder, when I see one, if the original owner found it helpful.

I watched Lustig's video (again!) this morning after I recommended it to you. He's convinced me (again!) that sugar is the main problem. Glucose isn't so much. I think I'll keep eating clean for the remainder of the week then experiment with adding back in rice or wheat or potatoes or something. One thing at a time.

Day 3 back on low carb, and I've already dropped a couple of pounds of water weight - and my blood pressure's back down. Yay!
