Dean,

These ideas cross my mind, but one goal now is to lose weight.  I have
lost 20 pounds, half of it on a NeanderThin-ized Atkins diet.  All these
tomatoes and peaches and honey ideas sound great.  But the carb counts
do violate Atkins' carb limitations.

I am waiting and hoping to hear someone say that (s)he is losing weight
following Neanderthin without counting carbs.  Is anyone losing weight
in this way?
