FOX news this morning...

FOX had something on dieting this AM. These two gals had both lost
weight, one said she lost 350 pounds. She sure looked good. Anyway
they were trying to sell a book they wrote. Asked how she lost the
wt., the one who lost 350 lbs. said Weigh****chers, and changing her
diet from high fat to low-fat, along with setting the determined goal
to lose the weight. She mentioned 3 times...although it seemed to go
right over the interviewer's head, that it was important to her to eat
a lot of food, that she was, and still is, a "volume eater", so she
needed to find lower-cal foods. The interviewer kept wanting her to
say, in fact even said it once FOR her, that you couldn't punish
yourself. Ha! She has no idea. Someone who is 350 lbs. overweight will
of course punish themselves to lose 350 pounds, and good for her...she
would not say it was easy. These idiots on FOX..God, I hate that
station, they try to reduce everything into meaningless sound bites.
Black and White. That's Nazi Republicans for you (end of diversion and
editorial).

Sounds exactly like what I've been doing. That would mean she ate some
combination of high fiber, high-water, low-fat. There simply is no
other way to eat a lot of food and keep the calories down, short of
surgery, olympic-type training, or drugs...no good way let's say. dkw

One of my favorite books : http://tinyurl.com/ytmgfg

In this book it has page after page of examples in pictures of the
variety
of foods you could be eating for the same value as something calorie
dense.
Like 1/8th of a bagel on one page and on the other page a whole bunch
of
foods but they equal the same amt of calories as the bagel portion.
A real eye opener and good for someone who needs to eat alot but
keep the calories down.

Low fat diets are bull****. One needs to keep the proper fat/carb/protein
ratio. Natural fats are essential to the diet. Amazing how many people
equate dietary fat with body fat. Same problem with cholesterol. Dietary
cholesterol != serum cholesterol.

Oh and you can leave your stupid politics out of this diet NG.

Not really. Our bodies can easily handle 10% fat or even less. The
body is much less delicate than you indicate. In fact, I am convinced
10% fat is plenty. Other than the essential fats, there is really no
need to eat fat since your body can make it from protein and carbs. I
simply do not believe cholesterol is good for you. The govt. says you
CAN eat a little, but nobody actually recommends it. Your body can
make all you need without eating ANY cholesterol. In fact, I haven't
for over two years not...vegetarian with only nonfat dairy products
and egg whites from animal sources. If people associate fat in the
diet with overweight, they are correct, given the fact that each gram
of fat has over twice the calories of carbs or protein. Of course you
can also gain weight by eating too much protein and carbs as well, but
fat is the most dense calorically speaking. Oh I see now, a
republican. That's OK. Like I said, you are looking at nutrition from
an insular, black and white POV, which seems to me to be a Republican
problem. OK, no more politics. dkw

There was an eat-fat-get-fat infomercial person some years back, that I
suspected was using amphetamines. The hyper TV personality made it
plausible.
