Its such an individual thing-some people gained the weight back, but not as much as they had, and some people didn't. But I think people are still conscious about their carbohydrate intake.

What's interesting is people still aren't eating as much bread as they used to.

When the Atkins craze was in full bloom [about a year ago], people were asking us not to bring bread to the table noticeably more. Bread sales were down, and we were selling less pasta and a lot more steak.

A lot of people are doing something about their weight, but by their own reckoning, it isn't enough to get the results they want.

Sadly, only something like 10 to 12 percent of people are able to recover from a weight regain. The people who do manage to turn it around catch it quickly, even with just two pounds regained.

We had people not making weight. We just didn't come ready to wrestle, plain and simple.
