I got this book last week and I have already read it TWICE! Yes, I am a bookworm but, still . . . Fascinating. I have read a lot of the backlash against Gary Taubes' premise but none of it has made me doubt what he says. In my life, sugar and high-carb processed food makes me fat, sick, tired and constantly hungry. I have been trying various low cal and low fat diets over the past 30 years! The only time I had weight loss that lasted longer than six months was where I did NOT eat chips, potatoes, bread, sugar, candy, baked goods etc. I had lost fifty pounds that way but I lost focus & started eating junk, sugar and high-carb meals again - leading to fat me!
Great book
