Wow, generalize much? I'm a red-meat eater, and I care about my health. So your statement is false. I also don't smoke. But I used to smoke, back when I was a vegetarian.
Geez guys, I said I eat lots of red meat. Why would I be a red meat hater? Thing is, most people that eat a lot of red meat also tend to neglect their health. I am not one of those, but there is a correlation between red meat eaters and unhealthy practices such as smoking or eating other bad sugary foods. It's like how exercise is said to help us lose weight--it's not the exercise itself, rather, it's the fact that people that exercise also tend to eat a better diet. It is not very common to find people that exercise AND eat junk food every day (unless you are trying to bulk).

Does this make sense?
Generalizations are never good. Your posts are confusing, you seem to be saying one thing while meaning another. I also think if you do not switch up your diet at some point you are going to suffer some major consequences.
Well here's another idea, since your handy dandy chart only has two possible "diets" on them..
And oddly, your chart compares apples with oranges...
Atkins is represented by a total number of grams of carbs, with no indication of how many total calories per day that number of grams comprises.
Traditional is represented by a total number of calories comprising the average carbs, with no gram information on the recommended number of carbs.
So - you have
Atkins = 20
Traditional = 55%
AnonChick = Green.
I win.
You can't just disagree... you have to feel that you've won? Wow.
