An interesting Wikipedia article.
I have in the past always tended to what I now know to be a reduced carb, high fibre, low glycemic index approach to losing weight, and it worked well when living alone or working away from home, but not nearly as well when living with someone who believes that one should not change one's diet but simply use wiill power to reduce intake of all food put before one, even if carb intensive, and too plentiful. Potatoes and baked goods are more important to my wife than myself, and we both cook too large meals, but her will power is stronger than mine!
