About the Author
Karen Rysavy is a career-long recipe developer and food writer, and a low-carb lifestyle success story if there ever was one. She's been quoted by Dr. Robert Atkins in his book Atkins for Life and, through her Web site (http://www.trulylowcarb.com) and in her writing for food magazines, walks the walk and talks the talk about the myths and realities of the low-carb lifestyle (it's a productive, healthy way of living, not just a quick-fix diet).
