The diets my doctors have put me on through the years never worked, because they never addressed the hunger. I've been on fen/phen, then phentermine alone, and meridia, over the counter stuff, etc., and the low glycemic diet is the first time in all these years I haven't been starving the entire time. I think Atkins is what helped to cause the gout. I was simply not getting enough fruits and vegetables and way too much meat, in a desperate attempt to lose weight.
