Okay Mustangrrl, I'll buy the falling and hitting ones head, but being heavy as a diet guru doesn't work for me IMO
OMG, you guys are unbelievable...
He went into a coma after sustaining a head injury, due to a fall on the ice. He spent ~7 days in said coma and never recovered. Yes, he gained weight while in the coma, but (from what I understand) that is nothing unusual.
Weight-loss doctor dies at 72 from head injuries.
Here is a picture of him in March of 2003... About a month before his death. Clearly, he is not obese.
I'm sorry that I interrupted... Please don't let the facts get in the way of your discussion. :roll:

low carb doesnt mean no carb. the only time your really restricting your carbs is the first two weeks were you stay under 20g a day, but then after that its about finding your ideal setting. fruits and vegatables ARE a big part of the low carb lifestyle. its all about cutting out proccessed carbs and other mass produced garbage.
Yep... So is eating in moderation, getting plenty of exercise, eating natural foods, etc...
Unfortunately, you are preaching to a bunch of people who know nothing of the subject, but somehow believe they are experts.
Such as yourself Wingznut? Just kidding, a simple routine like that will definately work better than anything its just hard to take away the foods people love and its sometimes hard for people not to cheat during occasions and such. My mom is on this low carb thing and when we go out of town and out to eat its hard for her to find something that will do the job so she ends up going on and off of the diet. She isnt really big at all and I believe she will get the results she desires.
Perhaps. However, my doctor (family doc), my wife (cardiac nurse) and all the doctors she works with in the hospital (cardio docs) say the Atkins diet will kill you.
Needless to say, I'm staying away from Atkins and doing the "everything in moderation" lifestyle change.
Edit: OOooOoOoOoOOOoOoOoo I'm platinum now! Somebody flame me!
Yeah, but that's no different than any other plan.
Restricting foods is a very difficult thing to do, no matter how you choose to do it.
I don't doubt that... But then again, my doctor told me that my results were impressive, and my physical (including cholesterol) was much improved, and she had nothing bad to say about it.

Could there be something hidden that is killing people?

IMO, bulking up on sugar and other simple carbs is just as bad as cutting all carbs.
Before Atkins came along, my diet consisted of 50% protein, 50% carbs. Now that I know which carbs are good, which are not, I try to avoid carbs that do nothing for my body.
Although millions of people may be putting themselves in danger by Atkins diet, I think everyone should read a basic Atkins book. I am anti-Atkins, but I still think the information given in the book can lead to a healthier life style.

It's simple, by eating several small meals thruout the day and moving your body more you've jump started your metabolic rate.If you find you're still losing you might need to add more calorie dense foods to your diet,things like peanut butter that don't increase bulk but that do contain good nutrition.

Fluid retention while in a coma is hardly something to hold against him.
You try falling when you're his age, you'll likely end up the same way.
