I hated low carb for a long time too.
I remember a friend once telling me that she'd lost so much weight on Atkins. She's was so pleased, and I'm embarrassed to admit that I didn't even congratulate her. I was thinking what an awful diet she was on.
We have it ingrained in us that meat is bad, animal fat is bad. I think it's funny that my two coworkers who are the most health-conscious are low-fat mavens. They eat granola bars. Yuck! Probably the biggest problem is that we don't eat whole foods. We eat food products.
