Thanks Chuck and Charlie.  You should check his movie FatHead. It is a
parody of the other movie "Supersize Me".  He eats every day at McDonalds
(selectively, of course) and not only loses weight, but his cholesterol,
blood pressure, and other health indicators improve.  He explains why not
fat but excessive carbs are the problem with obesity and heart disease.  His
motto: "You've been fed a load of bologna".  His blog:

For the past 6 weeks I have been eating low-carb, a big NO, NO, for runners.
I have lost 13 lbs without ever feeling hungry. I have increased my running
to 70 miles a week.  I ran the Akron Marathon last Saturday.  For breakfast
I ate what would be considered "nutritional suicide" for a runner, eggs,
cheese and almonds (no bread).  My time was 3:34, with negative split
(second half was faster than first half, last 3 miles were the fastest of
all 26).  I have never felt better. :)
