New York cuisine, Atkins-style. New York restaurants are being flooded with low-carb, high-fat dieters who eschew sugar, flour, and most veggies in favor of meat and cheese. Posh eateries are putting bacon on the appetizer menus, offering sauces on the side, and getting accustomed to diners who have a before-dinner vodka instead of a wine.

I don't own a scale because I think that weight is a poor way to judge yourself if you're exercising and gaining muscle... but since I started severely cutting down on carbs and eating lots of protein a couple of weeks ago, I've seen noticable changes in both my physical appearance and my energy level. The tough part: hydrogenated oils and carbs are in everything. I'm susiding mostly on vegetables and meat. I snack on beef jerkey and salami throughout the day.
