The Fattening Of America: Obesity Rates Hit Record High, Doctors Blame Cars & Poverty
74% of American men are either overweight or Obese (up from 63% in 1994) according to a new report using data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.
As MSN reports, the researchers exclaim "obesity is not getting better. It's getting worse, and it's really scary. It's not looking pretty," warning that America's "car dependence" and poverty ("processed and fast foods are less expensive") are to blame and America's weight problem is an issue that will not be resolved through a purely medical solution.
As MSN reports, fewer than one-third of Americans are currently at a healthy weight, with the rest of the population either overweight or obese, a new report finds.
About 35 percent of men and 37 percent of women are obese. Another 40 percent of men and 30 percent of women are overweight, researchers said in the June 22 issue of JAMA Internal Medicine.
"Obesity is not getting better. It's getting worse, and it's really scary. It's not looking pretty," said Lin Yang, a postdoctoral research associate at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis.
The new obesity figures did not come as a surprise to Dr. Elliott Antman, president of the American Heart Association.
"It's in line with what we already knew, and it provides some numbers on the magnitude of the problem," Antman said of the new study. "It puts a face on the issue, and it's a significant problem."
Obesity is related to increases in diabetes, high blood pressure and elevated cholesterol, "all of which converge on an increased risk of heart disease and stroke," he said.
America's weight problem is an issue that will not be resolved through a purely medical solution, Yang and Antman said. Politicians and officials at the federal, state and local levels will need to weigh in with policies that increase the number of calories people burn and decrease the amount of unhealthy foods they ingest.
For example, communities need to adopt plans that will make it easier for people to get around on foot or riding a bike, rather than sitting in a car, Yang said.
"America is a very much car-dependent country. We know car driving is a chunk of sedentary behavior," she said. "More walking or bicycling would increase the physical activity of the whole nation."
Policymakers also need to find ways to improve the availability of inexpensive, healthy food, Antman said. Right now, processed food and fast food that is high in unhealthy sugar, salt and fat tends to be more affordable and available in America's communities than healthier options.
"Fast foods are less expensive, so that individuals trying to feed a large family might tend to purchase them rather than fresh foods, which are harder to find and more expensive, and therefore less economically appealing," he said.

But more cars and cheaper costs for crappy food is great for the stock market, right?
* * *
We leave it to the report's doctors to conclude - rather stunningly...
"This generation of Americans is the first that will have a shorter life expectancy than the previous generation, and obesity is one of the biggest contributors to this shortened life expectancy because it is driving a lot of chronic health conditions," she said.

Terrorists! /s lol
"Obese" is such an ugly word. Let's all start using "Wisconsin skinny"
How about "Calorically challenged"?
More like "Calorically Enhanced"...
YES!
Take away fat people's cars, ban them from driving, and put a scale at the door of every McDonald's in the nation that will not allow people over 185 pounds in! A Chinese-made bicycle and some Nikes, and Michelle's 'healthy meals' for ALL!
WELL...
Instead of a Quarter-pounder with cheese ($3.99 plus tax), try buying a pound of hamburger, some cheese, and a pack of buns and actually doing 'manual labor' (A.K.A. 'cooking'). LOOK! FOUR quarter-pounders for less than A 'crappy meal'! Instead of allowing EBT to be used at so-called 'convenience stores' to buy chips, candy, and soda pop, why not BAN EBT ALTOGETHER? Instead of free Obamaphones, why not CUT CABLE for everyone on the public dole so they'll HAVE to find other ways to entertain their fat-lazy, slothful asses? Instead of providing handicapped spaces and frigging fat-people scooters and stuff, why not bring back the ideas regarding SLOTH and AVARICE and the way that a society degrades itself?
There IS NO SUCH THING as a 'BBW'; just a fat girl who eats too much.
So-called 'poor' people can afford to drive cars to fast-food places and use EBT to buy gas and Slurpees, but the 'working class', mostly, can't. 'Partially Hydrogenated' and 'Corn Sweeteners' don't make you fat (unless you eat it every day in mass quantities); so why not TELL the MASS PRODUCERS of this crap to GTFOOH, and OUTLAW this stuff? How about 'GMO'? GOOD for you? ASPERTAME? yeah, right...
The benevolent masters in government/P.P.Partnership are once again attempting to 'legislate morality', by pointing out the benefits of Agenda-21 'smart cities' that are 'planned' so that no one has the freedom to travel more than two or three miles (by banning cars, for the 'sake' of the 'fat people'). Meanwhile, they get the fat peoples' kids into 'public school' and hook them on computers (while ripping out playground equipment because it's 'too dangerous' (for the 'sake' of the 'Children').
The newest definition for stratospheric chemical poisioning/geoengineering of the atmosphere that I have heard on ther MSM weather reports on the radio by the 'meteorologists' (as if meteors have something to do with predicting the weather) is 'HIGH THIN CLOUDS'. The 'partly sunny/partly cloudy' shit doesn't seem to placate the McDonalds-eaters. HMMM. Hydroflourosalisic Acid (spell check: Sodium Flouride) makes people docile and reduces their I.Q. levels, and nano-aluminium ingestion causes the onset of Alzheimers', and GMOs have deleterious effects on the body, and Aspertame actually causes weight GAIN, and television watching causes the Alpha waves in the brain to shut down. Well, NO SHIT!
'Studies have shown that people are fat because they are poor and drive cars and eat hamburgers'. NO people are FAT because they are fucking LAZY and DOCILE and STUPID and have too much money to spend, paying someone ELSE to make their food for them; driving cars to purchase this crap... SLOTHFULNESS and AVARICE and PRIDE and LAZINESS are now ENGRAINED in this society. Rich people, at least, have their OWN money (or have gainfully stolen it from the poor) to spend (and if they choose to be obese, so the fuck what?)...
'Calorically Enhanced' is the NEW 'Morally/Ethically Challenged'.
Like cows or sheep, FATTENED for the slaughter, they order a 'super-size' (with a Diet Coke'). if ONLY they would lower the price of Cocaine, then EVERYONE on the subway would be doing IT (instead of eating donuts)! It would be interesting to do this study in the State of Colorado, to see if the legalization of Marijuana corresponds to an increase in the obesity rate (due to cravings for 'munchies').
AGENDA 21, and 'sustainable habitats', anyone? ALL the FAT PEOPLE HAVE to live in 'car-free zones'?
Sugar intake has almost doubled since 1990.
http://www.sugar-and-sweetener-guide.com/images/Consumption-of-Sugar.jpg
Sugar is increasingly being added to everything we eat. Many of the worlds 100 healthiest foods are cheap and easily accessible. This is especially true of stores that have a bulk section. Even health food stores, for example, will sell bulk oats and brown rice for less than $2/lb. these are complete proteins that contain fiber, good carbs and protein.
http://www.whfoods.com/foodstoc.php
But they must be purchased in their rawest form as possible and be prepared at home to avoid the additives the major food players dump into our food. But this takes time and a little education. Education is the key.
people dying earlier will save medicare, SS, insurance costs, so what's the problem?
The cost of 20 years of ill health before they die?
I eat healthier than most people and I get a decent amount of exercise. Yet, I remain a heavy man. I think some of it is due to the poison put into modern food, some to genetics, and some to me not trying hard enough.
To protect yourself from this crappy environment:
Buy some decent tobacco leaves:
https://www.leafonly.com/cigarette-tobacco-leaf/organic-tobacco-leaf
Shred 'em yourself, roll with hemp or flax paper. Smoke a stoge in the morning, one in the evening.
Along with a good scotch after walking 18.
I rode 16 miles each of the 5 days last week and went to the gym twice to lift. I am heavier after all that than before. something is oging on.
as for life expectancy, obesity may play a role but obozocare will really be what causes life expectancy to decline. looks like the PTB are trying to reframe the issue away from the frighteningly stupid health care law that will almost certainly be upheld by a somehow compromised chief justice roberts
I just read an article on that phenomenon last night. A reasonable amount of exercise is a good thing, but calorie intake is a far greater factor. Those workouts could be stimulating your appetite. Drink nothing but water to hydrate yourself.
Cut the exercise, stop eating so much and you'll get ripped. Go paleo or find something that fits your lifestyle best.
http://www.leangains.com/2011/03/intermittent-fasting-for-weight-loss.html
Two things. Muscle weighs more than fat. Another is you may need to drink more water. As I have personally found and has been backed by research if your body senses a trend of not having enough water on hand it will store more water than usual until you go through a period of an abundance of water. Then it will release the excess and go back to normal. Your workouts definately sweated out lots of water.
There is a lot of information out there. Are you keeping a log of everything you eat? Most people don't realize what they are eating during the course of a day.
No matter what you are eating, portion control is a must. Shrink your stomach by fasting. Then go to small meals.
Drink a glass of water before meals. Get a hot air corn popper for the munchies. I drink a lot of decaf tea in the evening if I get hungry.
I once thought that I was doomed to being just a bit chubby. I lost 8 pounds recently to get to where I was no longer(slightly) overweight according to the BMI index. I intend to lose 10 more.
Don't go on a 'diet'. Make permanent good changes in your lifestyle. You will succeed.
Eat with chopsticks, it keeps you from shoveling food in your pie hole too fast so that you feel full with less food in your stomach.
One word - Goku.
Studies have shown that using chopsticks instead of forks and knives cause the human body to actually burn more calories than it ingests (due to the increase in hand and arm movements to ingest the same amount of food). <S>
I have personally found that thorough mastication (NO, not that OTHER word!) allows the stomach to more quickly and thoroughly absorb the nutrients, and leaves less undigested food/fat in the guts (where the body takes it and stores it as if in 'hibernation mode'). Chopsticks probably force this, due to the smaller quantity of food taken in per bite. ALSO, the size of the food that can be picked up with chopsticks is naturally more finely-cut, and smaller (the process of digestion is already fast-forwarded by the smaller size of the food being taken in).
HOWEVER: It is quite difficult to eat a 'Double-Whammy Burger with Cheese' using chopsticks.
A pending bill before Congress outlaws the use of hands, forks, spoons, and any other method of eating (except Chopsticks) for those that have been clinically diagnosed as 'Obese' by the AMA or it's member/partner NGOs or Obamacare public health providers. (<S>, again!)
@wen
In the end, it's calories in & calories out.
Let me give you some EXTREMELY GENERAL parameters... Base this on what's known as METS (metabolic equivalent)...
- The average, let's say, 50 yo male will clock in somewhere between 70-75 calories per hour (=1 MET), depending on BMI (which, even beyond those parameters either way, won't vary the 1 MET number more than +/- 5 calories per hour)... That's gonna clock in between 1680 ~ 1800 calories per day... Normally (those are your 'sitting on the couch all day numbers).
- There are all kinds of links on the internet links that can give you an evaluation of your basic activity, during the average day, that you can plug in to deternime your average metabolic rate per day. Most light activity such as driving, standing clock in at 1.5 to 2 METS... Lighter 'activity based' hours usually clock in at the 2 MET to 3 MET range.
- You don't get to 6 METS until you start doing moderate intensity aerobic activity (and most 'gym' people only do this for a hour a day give or take). What's notable here is that it's not really important (from a calorie perspective), if it's interval training or not... IOW ~ 60 minutes at EXACTLY 6 METS = the equivalent number of minute of METS at a lower intensity, plus, the accrual of the number of METS at the higher level... It's easy to calculate these numbers precisely if you use heart rate monitors and other devices during activity.
So then you have to be honest with your numbers... Calories IN (food intake) minus Calories OUT (BMR + activity)...
- Roughly 3,500 calories = 1 pound of fat
- The average person will 'slow' their basic metabolism if they underconsume food more than 500 calories per day. Which means that 1 pound per week is 'SANE' & sustainable... More is possible, but not for periods which endure more than, say, 6-8 weeks before metabolic adjustments take place...
There are all kinds of internet sites that will give you the EXACT caloric, fat, protein, carb numbers of various foods... USE THEM (because PORTIONS are what's important)... You'll be MOST precise if you utilize GRAMS as UNITS when calculating these...
Where MOST people fail is where they don't account for 'DRINKING' calories (which can accumulate from anything from alcohol, fruit juices, sodas, etc)... If you're not honest with those, it, in my experience, is the VERY THING that accounts for that 500 calorie abundance/defecit whereby people succeed/fail with their weight programs...
I hope that helps!
Good stuff, Steaksmith!
I used a convenient internet calculator to arrive at my calorie number of 1675 a day to lose a lb. a week, which is right in there with your more authoritative numbers.
@vic
That sounds totally accurate... Trust me, I've measured BMR's for over 30 years and, frankly, am AMAZED at how consistent they are...
If you've ever watched the 'NAKED & AFRAID' series on cable, those people, 100% are all on a 21 day 'survival' regimen... It almost doesn't matter if they appear PUDGY or BUFF going in... It all depends on their muscle mass & bone weight when they enter... After the age 25, people don't increase muscle mass significantly (unless they're doing serious heavy weight training), likewise, their bone density has reached its peak... So after 25, it's mostly a game of fat + fat -... In N&A, You see anything from a 15 to 30 pound weight loss, in 21 days, on most of those males... Let's call it 21 pound 'average' (in 21 days)...
This jives PERFECTLY... Because sometimes they're without food for several days... At the same time, they're having to walk, forage, do light activity, etc... I'd describe their 24 hour OUTPUT at roughly 2 - 2.5 METS per hour...
So do the math... 2 * 1800 = 3,600 calories per day of expenditure = 1 pound per day of fat reserves... Sometimes thet get some food, sometimes not...
Fact is... These people couldn't go on for another month at that pace... THUS THE TV SHOW ( & how it figured on 21 days as the timeframe)...
Anyway ~ If ANYBODY wants some FREE INFORMATION on these things AT ANY TIME... Just nudge me here on the comment section of ZH (when appropriate)... I consider myself one of the TOP 10 people in the world on this subject... SERIOUSLY ~ no joke...
It's the only important thing I think I can ever really do (on a forum like this), that doesn't mangle anyones toes, (or minds), and that REALLY, TRULY, can help make a difference...
Anyway, IT's FREE!
Great advice. Please keep it up; very instructive. I try to limit fruit as opposed to veggies since I hear the sugars in fruit are somewhat harfmful ... but if it comes down to fruit or a pastry or donut, I try to eat the fruit.
Bad food, so to speak, is now a real addiction globally it's hard to break one's body off it sometimes.
BTW ~ For you 50 yo LADIES out there, your 24 hour, 1 MET, coefficient is gonna clock in at somewhere more like 60 calories per hour...
Weirdly (in your minds), it's probably not gonna make too much difference if you're 'roomy' or 'athletic' (because METABOLISM is largely based on the amount of LEAN MASS your body needs to service)... So basically... ALL WOMEN are this, I dunno, 125 pound, 26 year old, specimen who sits on the couch all day...
From that perspective, & assuming an average of 200 grams of muscle mass loss per year (IRRESPECTIVE of being male or female), of a HUMAN over the age of 25... Well...
- 200g x 5 years = 1 kilo
- 1 kilo = 2.2 pounds
- so, whether you're a man or woman, EVERY 5 year increment, past your 25th birthday, you lost 2.2 pounds of muscle mass if you crapped around on a barstool...
- So, at the age 50, you've lost 10 pounds of muscle mass
- which isn't THE END OF THE WORLD... Because you could start moderate to intense weight training AT ANY POINT then, & possibly, regain 5-7 of those MM pounds within, normally, 6-8 months...
- The DIFFERENCE... THEREBY ~ Amounts to, an average of, a 10-15 pound 'lean weight' loss (muscle mass + bone density), during the 25-50 yo timeframe...
- Which... it doesn't necessarily mean much... means that the average, hopefully, 10 pound female, has... about a 10- 15 calorie (per hour), lessened metabolism...
Doesn't mean much right?
Now multiple that by 24... = 240 - 360
Now add those 2 glasses of wine (to cope) in... 150 + 150 = +300
... There's your 660 calorie difference... Which:
= cut out the wine and INPUT 300 calories less
= put 35 more minutes at 2.5 MET activity on the treadmill, per day
DO BOTH = You lose a pound every 10 - 15 days
DO NEITHER = You gain a pound every 15 days
Fuck all the ADs... Math don't lie...

'100 grams of... WHATEVER FOOD YOU'RE INTERESTED'
Start with that & narrow it down... You'd be surprised how many FRUIT diet people can rack up the calories fast... Swithch it to green veggies & it changes. Factor in the bread & pasta & it changes some more...
LET ME BE CLEAR... I'm TOTALLY NOT against bread & pasta... But if you're looking at CALORIE IN/CALORIE OUT, the carbs, while satisfying, are gonna rack up the calories...
THAT is the 'mystique' that all these LOW CARB diets thrive upon... IT'S NOT THE CARBS that are bad 4 u... It's the CALORIES in the usual portions that peoiple are used to (WITH CARB DISHES), that are the problem...
Half the DIET/EXERCISE gigs out there are just selling you on some 'half truth' flim flam... They sell you on ONE ASPECT of the process... The REAL process is the BALANCE of the MATHEMATICAL process of calories IN&OUT...
GTFOOH!
FAT people shit bucketsfull, and they don't lose a pound! 'Calories' in and out has almost NOTHING to do with the BMI (otherwise, fat peoples' asses would be constantly on fire).
A CALORIE is scientifically-based measurement of the amount of heat-energy ACTIVELY USED to raise the temperature of, what is it, one gram of water one degree celcius (at a specific temperature), or something... I can look the definition up again (I actually DID learn it, once)... THAT is, the ENERGY that the body takes from the food that is ingested in order to maintain and sustain life... and THE REST of the unused 'stuff' is either transformed into other nutrients, stored, or exacuated... and if the FOOD isn't sufficient in USABLE transformable energy to the body (and tailored to the individual chemistry), the person NEEDS to eat MORE in order to maintain 'equilibrium' (and the REST gets, well, you know, stored, shit, or pissed).
If the human body in question has been so poisoned by toxins and so acclimated to absorption of these that it's metabolism is unable to convert the so-called 'food' ingested into usable energy (usually defined by armchair health coaches as 'calories'), All the 'calorie-counters' and all the math in the WORLD cannot help them. CALORIES are the specific MEASUREMENTS of the heat BEING generated (NOT the 'potential' heat'; as you and most others like to THINK they know of),The human body was designed as a wonderful machine; but it has limitations.
Think of the problem as if you were a pre-1972 internal combustion engine that has just had the lead taken out of the gasoline (AND is forced to run ethanol instead of octane). Simply counting the BTU content (or in your case, the 'calories'), only looks at a minor aspect of the global issue. The engine runs, but starts to lose power, and the exhaust valve seats start to recess into the cylinder head, and the driver has to add more fuel to achieve the same amount of usable work, and; soon, the engine starts to try to destroy itself. Meanwhile the fuel is rotting the rubber supply lines and components in the carburetor, and the 'dry gas' begins to migrate into the crankcase, where the synthetic rubber seals start to leak profusely. Soon, that 'classic' car you owned becomes a leaking, gutless, worthless nightmare taking up space in the garage.
It's not a matter of 'calories in and out'. If the engine timing is retarded; for example, the specific output of usable heat/transfer to rotational work is reduced (despite the quantity of raw fuel/'calories' being ingested), and if the QUALITY of the raw fuel/'calories' is degraded, the engine must overcome this in other ways (or the DRIVER, AKA 'the human' must compensate), so that the machine can continue to fuction AS DESIGNED.
I hope this isn't too 'deep' to comprehend.
YOU are actually 'techincally' speaking of KILOCALORIES, aren't you?
"In the end, it's calories in & calories out."
But it isn't. You can shit out undigested or partially digested food. If you are on Atkins, you piss out ketone-body rich urine.
I lose about 0.9 pounds a day on average when I am on it, and I feel great, and can eat as much as I like so long as I keep the carbs under 20 grams, and the protien at <33% of calories consumed.
@mosley
Do you really want to fuck with me on something as fundamental as 'METABOLISM'?... I mean, DUDE, FFS... The margins of discrepancy on this subject date back to humanity itself (unless you want to argue the the FIXED caloric values of 1 gram of fat, carbs, & protein... 9,4, 4, with me)... LET IT GO PAL... If you're talking out of your ass here (BECAUSE I'M NOT)...
"I feel great, and can eat as much as I like so long as I keep the carbs under 20 grams, and the protien at <33% of calories consumed."
OK my friend... Let's plug that MATH into what I generically described ABOVE... You NEVER identified the DAILY number of AGGREGATE calories consumed...
-<'33% of calories consumed' means ZILCH... (PROTEIN = 4 calories per gram)
- carbs under 20 grams means ZILCH... (CARBS = 4 calories per gram)...
THAT'S MATH BITCH!!!
So... Let me try & figure out your dipshit diet...
- MAX CARBS = <20 grams = LESS THAN 80 calories (that's TOPS asshole ~ based on your stated parameters)
- MAX PROTEIN = <33% TOTAL
So let's say your dipshit ass is the average 1700 calories per day... But I'll ASSUME it at 1800, because your TESTOSTERONE seems to be about 100 calories higher based in the IDIOCRACY of you even bothering to challenge me on this... &, of course, because 1800 is more easily divisible by 3...
MAX PROTEIN = 1800 divided by 3, divided by 4 = 150 grams
~~~
So, you're talking about a diet that consists of:
- 150 grams of protein per day = 600 calories
- 80 grams of carbs per day (<20 x 4) = 320 calories ~ if you maxed out
- So THERE is 920 calories max
Dude ~ there's NOTHING else in the caloric food input)... Except FAT...
So ~ Let's just say you sat on your stupid ass all day and thereby achieved your 1,800, couch potato, BMR minimum...
Well,
You'd have roughly 900 grams to spare, right?
That's ASSUMING you wanted to break even... But you didn't want to break even right?... You wanted to lose a pound a day... (OK ~ .09 ~ but let's get real)...
- 1 lb of fat = roughly 3,500 calories
- 1 gram of fat = 9 calories
You've ALREADY stated that, with this massively restictive diet, you're consuming 920 calories (discounting any FAT that you've POSSIBLY consumed, including drinks, which usually don't add to the FAT, but mostly add to the calories)...
You'd still have to have a metabolic rate of roughly 2,800 calories per day to achieve that amount of fat loss...
- Which means you'd probably be spending around 90 min per day on the treadmill
- which means that, at <20 g carb, 33% protein, your daily diet would basically consist of a half pound chicken breast + 2 or 3 crumbs of bread per day, NOTHING ELSE
Sure ~ Anyone could do it for a few days... But MY POINT ABOVE still stands... That particular metabolic rate cannot endure for sustained periods (I'd say 3 weeks MAX)...
Then, adjustments and metabolic neutrality begins to set in...
But by all means... Good luck with your fantasies!
'If you are on Atkins, you piss out ketone-body rich urine.'
One of my first jobs, while still in high school (after school, Tenth and Eleventh grade), was as a clean-up boy for an aircraft refinishing shop. It was lots of fun. I used to have to sweep the floors, help mask off airplane windows, and other stuff. The BEST part was dumping the slop buckets of Methyl Ethyl KEYTONE and old 'IMRON' paint (@DUPONT). I always tried to hold my breath, but I would get SO HAPPY... who needs DRUGS, when I get to huff this stuff every day AT WORK? Add two kinds of alcohol to your 'miracle urine', and feel NO PAIN (AND, as an added bonus, lose wight AS WELL!). C4H8O (four-carbon, eight hydrogen, one oxygen)!
The USEPA doen't want to tell you (and doesn't care to 'alarm the public'):
http://www.epa.gov/ttn/atw/hlthef/methylet.html
PISSING KEYTONE is, like, TMI'. I'll need a little Scotch to wash that thought down with. Be careful of the effects of this corrosive on the PVC pipes in your plumbing, as well as several 'courtesy flushes'; as a mandatory.
You know, it's kind of SCARY that that 'Atkins' global weight-loss conglomerate scam would feed you stuff that makes you piss Keytone. Your urethra must be feeling NO PAIN, but those sperms/eggs that reside close by are getting PLENTY STONED. Yeah, I remember when they first started up, within a 2-mile vicinity of the workplace that I am telling you about. It was in the early 1980's (a few years after my apprenticeship). Their thing was 'carbohydrates' (a fancy word for 'hydrogen/carbon recombination within the human body chemistry', or rather, 'liquidity of solid assets within the corpus'). They told everyone that their food/diet would make people piss out the fat they had ingested; converting it into 'harmless' urine. NOW, i suppose, it's 'KEYTONE-RICH urine (because the humans in question are so saturated with toxins that Keytone seems to be a 'natural byproduct'). ANOTHER way to state this is used by the OIL Oligarchy: HYDRO-CARBONS. OIL-RICH PASTAS, and stuff like that, were the standard fare in these microwaveable, 'convenient' plastic-covered cardboard trays of 'food product'. The term 'wheat glutens' was just being coined by the PTB, as I remember (in the earlier stages of 'global crop management').
The popular thing in Japan these days is 'adult undergarments' ('Depends', @Proctor And Gamble). It's actually 'fashionable' to play 'sex games' in which both sexes shit in their clothing (because their food is reduced to a liquid paste that they have no control of).
You're losing a pound a day because your guts are being eaten out; poisoned; eradicated, and loss of bowel control is only a 'side-effect'.
Have you considered swallowing a tapeworm (<S>); or a coffee enema regimen, instead of ingesting this overpriced 'food-styled product'?
If you're fat, STOP EATING for a while (a 'fast', as it were). If you're OBESE, stop eating for a LONG TIME. For the LOVE OF GOD, man!
Ketones are a class of organic compounds, some of which are produced by the metabolism of fat. MEK is not one of the ketones produced by the metabolism of fat.
UM...
Methyl, Ethyl, and Keytone.
IN COMBINATION. 'MEK'.
Jubus Crist, you are fucking stupid!
SERIOUSLY?
The 'metabolism of fat' is, like, well, triple-chins, or 'arm-fat'. 'Keytones are a class of organic compounds'... just like HYDROCARBONS are.
FUCK...
What a fucking MORON!
You keep referring to "keytones." I am referring to ketones. If your post is an attempt at sarcasm or humor, I apologize for missing it.

World War 3 should thin us out a bit. The good news is we will all have nice lean swimmers bodies from the hunger. The bad news is that 50 or 60 million may die.
50-60 million? God damn you're an optimist.
I'm thinking 4 billion on the low side.
Georgia Guidestones.
Less than 500 million is considered as 'sustainable'.
YEAH, it's a 'conspiracy theory' (etched in Granite).
MEANWHILE, in FUTURE-NEWS, Barack Hussein Obama-Soetoro, Global Citizen Prime, is FINALLY going to marry Reggie Love (Michelle) {OR, IS HE? YOU are the judge!}, in a world-wide television event!
Be sure to tune in to PMSNBCSN (right before President Comacho addresses the 12-member Global Governance Body regarding the problem of radicalized preppers posting radiation readings in order to scare the populace). The obligatory fly-over by the Global World-wide Spray-Plane elite, named 'The Blue Hell's Angels', will perform their remarkable demonstration of patterned spraying aerobatics, right before the official kickoff of the 'Sustainability Games'!
STAY TUNED! Faux News... WE decide, YOU comply!
so it's ok to have death panels to decide who lives and who dies, but its bad news if people live they way they want to and die on their own terms early. you know, early like the euthanasia population control types want.
oh right, good when THEY decide, bad when its your own idea
You know that old joke about that bear and those 2 guys in the woods?
No?
Well, I’ll tell you the American version!
2 Americans are walking in the forest AND SUDDENLY!! THEY SEE A TURTLE!!!!
And as one American farts because he went to Taco bells for breakfast, the turtle notices them and starts running towards the Americans!!!
So...
Suddenly, one of the Americans is looking to the other and notice he’s taking his insulin injection!
So he asks: why now!?!?!
And he answers: I may not be able to outrun the turtle but all I need to do Is not getting a hart attack before you do!!!
Actually... it’s not a joke... it actually happened.. thousands of times...
Merikans like eating meat. Take a good look at growth hormone laid farm animals in factory farms that are all super obese. You are what yoy eat, the old saying goes.
it's not the meat. It's the damned carbohydrates that do it. Look at the government food pyramid. Pure bullshit. Ever since the low-fat, low meat high grain food pyramid, people got fat. Eat meat, saturated fat and skip the grains and sugar. And for God's sake don't eat 3 meals.
by going plant based diet, Bill Clinton gained more weight? personally i started going vegan a year ago. without even working out, i lost 15% of my former body weight in first five weeks. by the 6th month, i eat lots of pasta, oats, rice and bread too, pkus three mile walk each day, my body weight dropped from 185 to 134, my pants size going from 40 to 29. so i can tell you what worked for me.
Yes.
Here's a list of docs, researchers and writers you can listen to:
Dr. Dean Ornish
Dr. John McDougall
Dr. Caldwell Essestyn
These three have been treating diabetes, heart disease, hypertension, obesity and other serious illnesses with, essentially, a whole foods plant based diet for 30 years. Ornish and Esselstyn have both published results in peer-reviewed medical Journals. Campbells son, also a doc, has started a whole foods plant based treatment clinic within Kaiser (in Portland Oregon) after a pilot program generated profit for Kaiser, just months from start up, from the reduction in diabetes medications alone! The program stopped advertising because it is oversubscribed. People will do what they need if they can get through all the fad-diet and food industry bullshit to real information. Very few will get useful information from their docs because docs are: a) ignorant of nutriton and b) there's no money in prevention (except for HMOs like Kaiser) and c) the money is in pills and procedures.
Dr. Neal Barnard
Dr. Joel Fuhrman
Dr Michael Gregory
Google any of these three as well. There is slightly different emphasis among them but essentially these guys are all on the same page. If you want to read confirming research try The China Study (by T. Colin Campbell) or just watch the DVD "Forks over Knives" which features Campbell, McDougall and Esselstyn.
People can shop around and find some diet that tells them what they want to hear - there's a huge amount of money to be made using telling people what they want to hear - or they can follow the real research and a proven path to weight loss, clean arteries, a robust immune system and good health.
Also check out: The Blue Zones. It's a global study, sponsored by Nat. Geo, of the longest lived populations clusters on earth. See what they eat.
Be careful of the bullshit studies. The entire lipid hypothesis is pure, unaduterated lies and brainwashing ( a la global warming bullshit ).
Better yet, read some of these guys and get into primal eating. You'll feel awesome and get f'ing ripped!

And you lost all your muscle and you're not born to eat grass like a cow. I lost the fat and got ripped as that's how we're genetically programmed to eat. You can go vegan if you want, but you probably will vote for Lesbian Leftists for President. I'll still kick your ass.
Oh and by the way, the lipid hypothesis is bullshit, pure and simple.
We're genetically adapted to meat and scavanging. While you waste away and wear a skirt, I pack on the muscle and get the chicks.
FYI - Read up a bit
http://www.livescience.com/24875-meat-human-brain.html
I went vegan but kept my muscle. You have no standing on that particular piece of info because its the straight up truth. So tell me more about how there is no protein in veggies...
Name calling ad hominem crap. Paleos at least eat greens which helps their bodies deal with the toxic load of all that meat. A great improvement on the Atkins diet.
BTW the fact that we can digest meat doesn't mean it's the best, or most natural diet. Carnivore have short intestinal tracts so they an get rid of the meat before it putrifies. Our guts most closely resemble those of our nearest relatives, the great apes. They eat over 90% fruits and greens. Care to arm wrestle a chimp sometime?
"Bullshit studies?" Like the China Study? Recognized as the greatest population study ever done?
PORK.
The OTHER 'white meat'.
PORK: It's the 'trychynosis-rich' diet of today's 'enlightment'!
PORK: What's in YOUR hot dog?
Without PORK, 'life itself would be impossibru'.
PORK: Beats the hell out of mouse fur!
'Frankly, I only buy and eat free-range PORK. if slop-eating cloven-hooved animals want to eat worms and animal shit, I like them to only eat the HEALTHIEST!'
PORK, the Eastern 'answer' to CBS television's 'Boss Hogg'!
PORK: Without bacon fat, what would you cook your chicken eggs in? BUTTER?
Since mankind has an average of 33 feet of intestines within his 5-and-a-half foot tall (average) body, WHY NOT eat PORK? if you don't have the ability to digest PORK, you will just shit it out anyway (because you don't have the 'guts').
After a meal of SPAM, SPAM, SPAM, baked beans, SPAM, and SPAM, I will be ready to arm-wrestle that chimp (as long as he has been sufficiently euthanized). Oh... PORK: The MEAL that led the ALLIES to 'VICTORY'!
I'm getting hungry, talking about the other white meat, Bastiat. Is there an Indian vendor near you selling meat-tube sandwiches and Squishies from a street-cart (in NYC)?
I could find that vendor -- or, even better, I could head to an Asian market for some mainland china exported sausage!
Pork, dog, cat, rat: if it's meat it's good! Probably no worse than the toxic crap the FDA lets them sell.
"Big Agribusiness animal farms, which steadily poison the meat and poultry they produce with antibiotics under the pretense of food safety, have massively infected the animals with Staphylococcus aureus1 (47 percent of meat and poultry recently tested). 52% of that is the nasty form of Staphylococcus that is resistant to antibiotics (MRSA superbugs)."

Stop eating so much you fatasses. Skip breakfast permanently, eat protein and saturated fat. Stop eating sugar and grains. Stop being stupid.
I agree except for skipping breakfast. Breakfast is important to get your metabolism going in the morning. I say eat breakfast and an early afternoon meal.
YES. BREAK-FAST.
Don't eat any grains, or drink fruit juices, or toast some real bread, though.
Instead, go to McDonald's, where the GMO wheat buns are toasted with oleo-margarine butter substitutes, and the pre-prepared PORK PRODUCT is always heated to just the 'right' temperature, and the 'egg product' (of undisclosed origins) is only seconds away from being added; super-heated in order to kill any pathogens (and melt the plastic-like cheese-food product that resembles yellow 'cheeze-whiz cheese-food substitute').
BACK! BACK through the 'drive-through', and, YOU, WILL, BITCH, about the 'slow service', as you once again take up the resemblance of lemmings IN SHINY METAL BOXES on your way to the 'office'!
CONFIDENT in your 'superiority', you face the new day, flipping through the XM radio stations, and continuing to wonder why other drivers can't figure out the basic rules of 'merging traffic'!
After 70 minutes of stress and sitting in the guided, self-thinking ozone-burning machine, you don't seem to have the strength to crawl out, and your heart once again remembers and stresses as you think about the parking costs. Carefully placing your 'refuse' in the appropriate 'receptacle', you feign a smile to the doorman, who feigns a smile to you as he thinks to himself 'Why in the fuck am I kissing this douchebag's ass? He fricking THINKS he's all 'smart' by eating 'breakfast', but I fucked my girl three times before he even took a fucking shower this morning! I bet he has an 'exercycle' in that fat-cat penthouse...'.
Later on, as you take in the 'early-afternoon meal' of Martinis (because OLIVES are considered as 'food'), you consider the 'higher thoughts' of 'race relations' and the 'superiority' of SOME. After all, you ONLY ate TWO meals, and those who are FAT, or POOR, or 'NOT OF YOUR CREED' have to eat at least, um, 6 times or something.
As you consider the belly-fat that is accumulating between your view of your sinking chest and your, um, 'private parts', late in the day, you begin to focus upon your belly button. Sitting in bed, watching PMSNBCSN, your spouse, questioning your actions, tries to assuage her/his guilt at being equally unnatractive (and unable to cook), by discussing HER/HIS 'two meals' day (oh, GOD, if ONLY the kids would FINALLY settle down!),
Fortunately, I am in tune to the needs of my body. If I need to eat, I eat. if I don't need to, I don't. My BMI hasn't changed since I achived adulthood (35 years ago, if you think 'American', instead of the 'Zionist' timeline, 5 years previous). I don't gain or lose weight. EVER. It's a curse, though, I suppose (because everyone I know of my age is virulently jealous of my body). Young girls are attracted to me in droves, and old women wish i was the man they had married when they were younger (before they whelped thier mixed-race proginies). I have abstained from PORK, and consider food as a 'fuel' and NOT a 'needful luxury'. I am in tune with my 'metabolism', and am the MASTER of it; NOT the 'slave'. I USED to be called an 'AVERAGE WHITE BOY', as if it was a deleteritous slur on my being. NOW, I am actually told by some to run for political office, and others to start a 'church', and still OTHERS to TEACH my 'wisdom', so that others can learn my knowledge. I guess, if food is a 'hang-up', for some, they will either get fat, or get skinny (depending on their spiritual make-up regarding Mammon/Manna). Coarse-ground black pepper, and freshly-ground sea-salt, and Olive Oil, and fresh garlic, and other spices (in the correct proportions), make the difference between 'eating food' and ENJOYING food. SOME like Paprika, and SOME enjoy Cinammon, and SOME revel in Basil and Rosemary and Thyme and Parsley and Sage and Dill.
HOWEVER, if you eat only two times a day (on a schedule), and it works for you, then your comment is well-recieved.
Do you know what a 'Cambric' is?

No no no no. Obesity is mostly an inherited trait much like height, eye color, and what kind of hair is on your head. The problem is is that fat lazy people who normally would not have the means to reproduce have i. access to welfare that allows them to collect more money with the more children they have, ii. access to other fat lazy mating partners they normally would not have found because of apps like tinder and websites like POF and Facebook.
I can concede to cars being a variable but that's only because vehicles act as the medium of transportation that allows fat lazy people to go off and fuck other fat lazy people.
Bust out a chart of Johnson's great welfare society speech and all the welfare programs we have and money that goes to welfare and slap that puppy against the average weight of Americans and tell me I'm not dead fucking right. We have recklessly tinkered with the natural selection process and this the result...fat asses everywhere.
I feel the NEED!
The NEED for SPEED!
I don't know what to make of this. I suppose I need to eat a lot because it's, well, 'genetic'. You see, I simply CAN'T CONTROL MYSELF, because everyone else around me EATS SO FUCKING MUCH!
Give me the keys. I need to get in the car and go get myself a cheeseburger. I'm a 'hunk, a hunk, of burning love'. Watch as my fattened and flaccid sex organs enthrall the masses! I AM 'Cheap Trick', LIVE, at BUDOKAN!

“Anything is one of a million paths. Therefore you must always keep in mind that a path is only a path; if you feel you should not follow it, you must not stay with it under any conditions. To have such clarity you must lead a disciplined life. Only then will you know that any path is only a path and there is no affront, to oneself or to others, in dropping it if that is what your heart tells you to do. But your decision to keep on the path or to leave it must be free of fear or ambition. I warn you. Look at every path closely and deliberately. Try it as many times as you think necessary.
This question is one that only a very old man asks. Does this path have a heart? All paths are the same: they lead nowhere. They are paths going through the bush, or into the bush. In my own life I could say I have traversed long long paths, but I am not anywhere. Does this path have a heart? If it does, the path is good; if it doesn't, it is of no use. Both paths lead nowhere; but one has a heart, the other doesn't. One makes for a joyful journey; as long as you follow it, you are one with it. The other will make you curse your life. One makes you strong; the other weakens you.
Before you embark on any path ask the question: Does this path have a heart? If the answer is no, you will know it, and then you must choose another path. The trouble is nobody asks the question; and when a man finally realizes that he has taken a path without a heart, the path is ready to kill him. At that point very few men can stop to deliberate, and leave the path. A path without a heart is never enjoyable. You have to work hard even to take it. On the other hand, a path with heart is easy; it does not make you work at liking it.”

on the passing of a great man, armand dimele.
astounding, such a man could pass unnoticed
by the wider culture. who was that man? why
was he a great man nearly unknown? ah, it happens
every day around here.
"Politicians and officials at the federal, state and local levels will need to weigh in with policies ..."
Can we have some animation to go along with this where superhero Antman is squashed for advocating government intervention over personal responsiblilty? ...Is Antman buggering on for the FDA?
Blame stupidity and the education system...
Including the medical education system which is focussed on treatment: pills and procedures,not prevention.

Blame this too on changing demographics. Paco like egg and cheese burrito with beans every day.
Part of the problem is Big Pharma:
There is a mentality among most that a pill can cure everything- when that's clearly not the case.
Depressed? Instead of drowning your sorrows in Paxil, Prozac, and other SSRIs- GO FOR A HIKE!
Stop watching TV, stuffing junk food and fast food into your face- and do something physical.
Here's da maff:

Calories IN < Calories OUT = WEIGHT LOSS
It really is that easy. The obvious with pussy feet around the subject, That can be applied to almost anything. Stop pussy fottin' around.
Stop eating so much or you will become a Fat Bastard.
Stop pirint so much money or you will ruin the price discovery mechanism.
Stop posting articles about Greece every hour or you will make the one eyed cat that plays ping pong dizzy.
I eat almost 4000 cals from carbs/day. But I'm healthy bc I exercise about 2 hrs a day.
It has gotten out of hand but 74% of American males are not overweight and the obesity numbers are misleading also. Thy just use that BMI chart mess based on someone that doesn't have much muscle etc. Any guy that lifts for a while now but has a good bodyfat % gets labeled as overweight by that chart and a decent framed with some muscle guy a little overweight gets classified as obese instaed of just overweight.
At the extremes is someone like a real low bodyfat NFL linebacker that would be labeled as obese by BMI at 235 or so even though they are all muscle.

Yes, remove gov from the solution and most of the problems will solve themselves.
Salvation, what is freely offered and lasts forever, but most make every effort to pass it by...that is stupid.
While I agree the number of hamplanets around seems to be increasing, I also believe they need to reconsider what they consider "overweight". I am a lifter, and I am considered "overweight" for my height because of the extra muscle....
There aren't enough serious lifters to make any kind of impact on the obesity numbers. Hell, just look around when you got out. We were out to dinner last night and 1 out of 10 people were seriously obese (I'm talking 300+ lbs) and at least 2 out of 3 could stand to lose at least 20 lbs. It's scary.
High fructous corn syrup. Number 1 issue. That shit is toxic and doesn't break down and that is why little kids are turning into porkers.
God knows how much of that shit is in the typically 55 gallon drum the average little asstard drinks in a day.
Careful big guy, BigAg is gonna hit you with a reverse SLAP suit with that kind of smearing of a patriotic industry.
I recently spent a little time in the Netherlands. When I returned to the US, even when I landed for my connecting flight, I noticed right away how much fatter people here are. I didn't notice it before that, since I had gotten used to it.
In the Netherlands, they have bike paths that are so sophisticated they are akin to a parallel road system. Many people bike or walk to their destinations.
When we ate out in restaurants, portions were smaller, with less heavy sauces.
Could it be the fucking corn, soy and wheat subsidies for fucks sake? Walk into a supermarket....it's all carbs from wall to wall.
There is a huge difference between whole grains on the one hand and refined grains, sugar and HFC on the other.
Not when you are on Atkins.
My Dad has ballooned up to almost 400 pounds eating that kind of "healthy" crap--because he eats too much. Shat like a champ, though.
Carbs make you hungry. Fat satisfies, even as its method of digestions forces your body to visceral fat into ketone bodies irreversably. Anything not used gets pissed out. Any unused carbs, whatever the source, get packed back on as fat.
I don't know what your dad eats but I seriously doubt it is a whole food, plant based.
How many years of healthy life have been lost to the Atkins diet? It looks like it killed him.
Atkinsexposed.org
don't forget carbs from fruit and veg. those are high quality RAW carbs which are the best.
"This generation of Americans is the first that will have a shorter life expectancy than the previous generation"
Isn't that the plan? Mr & Mrs lard die off before they can collect Social Security.
Just give the SS benefits to the illegals with their fake SS numbers.
Yes, it's certainly the cars, and not the high carb diet pushed by the government /s. Seriously, as someone who has lost 45 lbs without any exercise - read wheat belly, LCHF, dukan, atkins, really anything but what the government and the insulin pushers are peddling. Try having this for a meal: 3 eggs, a can of sardines, and some low starch veggies. That gets you complete protein, essential fats, and vitamins and nothing superfluous.
Question how much meat or other animal products do you need to eat to get "complete" protein?
Answer: Zero.
Ask this whole foods, plant based pussy (Tony Gonzales, Falcon linebacker, whole foods vegan for his last two years in the pros) https://ixquick-proxy.com/do/spg/show_picture.pl?l=english&rais=https%3A...
or this one: (Michael Lewis - had his best year as a whole foods vegan) https://ixquick-proxy.com/do/spg/show_picture.pl?l=english&rais=https%3A...
Refined carbs and sugars: no
Whole grains, legumes, pulses: yes!
>trying to convince people to go vegan
So THAT'S what's wrong with you.
so when the facts go against you, attack the messanger?
I'm interested in sharing what I've learned. People can do what they want. And "vegan?". You could eat chips & diet coke and be vegan. Whole foods, plant based.
Take it from a guy that lost 35lbs in 6 months because I was diagnosed with diabetes. My A1C is now around 5.6 (down from 7.2) so essentially I am cured (of course I can never go back to eating like before).
The thng is this, I lost all that weight be eliminating as many carbs as possible. The first couple months i did not touch any cakes, cookes, potatoes, pasta, soft drinks, sugar, etc. 2 slices of whole wheat bread for breakfast (whole wheat bread has just as many carbs as white bread, but it's still healthier). I did go for sushi (nigiri) twice a week.
I read the label of every food I bought and let me tell you, the American food industry is the devil. They load as much sugar and starch into foods as they can get away with! Yes, its that bad. Sugar and flour is cheap and 'tastes good', there is a very powerful sugar lobby working Washington. Fat has been made the devil (and Transfat is truly bad), but natural fat like butter, bacon and so forth is totally ok in normal quantities. While cutting the carbs I ate steak and bacon almost every day. My wife said that I would never lose weight that way and I proved her wrong. So, long story short, it's not the cars making peopel fat, it's the shameless food conglomerates (yes, that's you W. Buffet) and Pharmaceutical companies that are in cahoots.
I'm high carb low fat and can honestly say I'm in the top 1% when it comes to health. But ALL my carbs come from whole fruit and veg. Its not carbs that are evil, its the TYPE of carb. Not all carbs are created equal.
Sorry to burst your bubble, carbs are carbs. THat you are healthy might just have to do with the amount of physical activity you do plus age plus metabolism. Talk to any endocrinologist if carbs are good for your blood sugar.
Go long fat carts used at places like WalMart.
Was almost run over by a fat lady rushing to the snack isle to fill up her basket.
I'm not fat yet, but Im fixing to get that way. just pulled a fat rack of ribs out of the pit smoker. Tried to grab it by a rib-bone to remove it but the bone just slid out. I would say she's ready. I ought to be about foundered in about 2 hours. And, you can keep your corporate lard ass creating corn syrup BBQ sauce. Post Oak smoked Southwest style low and slow with a simple dalmation rub with fresh ground ancho peppers and a pinch of cumin don't need no freakin sauce.
The pork ribs won't make you fat; the sugar-filled BBQ sauce you pour all over it, will.
xactly, Lining the FDA with ex Monsanto and ADM execs who get them to turn their head as Americans foodstuffs are packed with extra calorie producing byproducts. to make you fat so you will eat more product. Yeppers it the cars DERp. Cars have been around since the model T in 1910 and people were not fat....., geeze. freakin Jew news.
In the 1960s corn syrup was mostly sold to feed mills as a feed additive to fatten what? you guessed it---Hogs. Now we have a whole country full of Hogs.
As for the ribs/ Well Ill probably feel like push mowing the lawn tommorrow or splitting a rick of wood. calorie in- calorie out , its that simple. GET OFF YOUR LAZY ASS AND BURN A FREAKING CALORIE
HFC....television/computers/tablets etc.....
Industrial toxins
No excersise
Fat Sheep
It's the what's in the food, not the quantity of food.
Yes, one can get fat from eating too much, however, the automatic and rapid weight increase seen in our population, and others, is caused by what is in our food. It is as if everyone suddenly developed post-middle age bodies or something.
I know middle twenty-somethings that don't eat a lot, but can't seem to get their weight within a norm--as if they are in their 50s or something.
I witnessed this with my own two eyes in Mexico as High Fructose Syrup (HFC) began to infiltrate the food supply in a region with little disposable income. The people there were generally thin and petite until post-middle age. Also few kids entering puberty way earlier than normal, and no 12-year-old girls walking around in the body of a 19-year-old.
Now, it is the opposite. Just like up north of the border, there has been a sudden explosion of obesity, and early on-set puberty. All the while, incomes, and food intake levels have not changed--also still a lot of fresh produce consumed as well. Seems that the occasional consumption of HFC, etc., is enough to set off a negative chain reaction in the body, that leads to the inability for the body to control its weight.
Liberty is a demand. Tyranny is submission..
All execs of GMO and HFC producing firms, past or present, will have no quarter, and no safe harbor TEOTWAWKI.
For more on the ravages of high fructose corn syrup, search YouTube for Loren Cordain or Robert Lustig.
For the readers, Google: hyperinsulinemic diseases of civilization.
Definitely a result of the whalefare state.
The injections a newborn calf receives at birth is not unlike a human. http://www.phschool.com/science/science_news/articles/hormones_beef.html
If anyone has known a person with COPD or systemic issues, steroids will cause great hunger and swollen appearance, found in organ tranplant patients to lessen rejection, suppresses inflammation but has dire consequences.
Even the doctors have failed Americans. There are factors that point to the food supply. Watch the people walk around, as if they are old people. Aging process is being accelerated by the environment, slowing metabolism. Something is wrong in America but it has nothing to do with the citizens themselves.
Obesity is a product of genetic entropy. Nothing more.
Yawn, another post from "Richard Simmons" Tyler.
There are few more serious topics: obesity, the malnutrition that causes it, the chronic diseases that arise with it, are a human and economic catastrophe.
Its all about getting further away from nature. The food most Americans eat is unnatural, the way they get it is unnatural, and the quantities they are able to consume is unnatural. I'm a small farmer, we grow most of our own food. That means we work ( yes with our bodies, not with a phone or laptop ), the food we eat is all natural ( and the food our animals eat is all natural...no hormones, antibiotics, processed grains, etc ). The human being is designed to do this. You're designed to get up every single day and work the soil, tend your animals, haul water, haul hay, cut wood, build things etc.
Living like this it is very difficult to become obese. You have a relationship with nature and understand your place in it. People that live this way don't have mid-life crisis', they dont need to talk about their problems with a therapist, they don't need psychiatric drugs to get them through the day. All of those things...the obesity, the mental disorders, the malcontentment, etc are all due to living an unnatural life and having lost your sense of connection to the natural world.
Apart from a relationship with your Creator, Jesus Christ, your life and all other lives are meaningless regardless of the occupation. I do love farmers and if everyone worked and lived like one, the world would be an improvement for sure.
Lot's of impoverished urban utopites have no car, what's their fcking excuse for their fatfck existence? Oh, yeah, white privileged. The propaganda is becoming increasingly shrill and omnipresent. Pretty soon, I'll have to throw the TV out the window and use my laptop for the increasingly unreliable NWS forecast.
You still watch tv?
Thanks for all of the advice on how to get thin. Going to get a bowl of ice cream now. As the ZH tag line states, On a long enough timeline the survival rate for everyone drops to zero. I chuckle when the MSM spouts "healthcare saves lives" and "people die without healthcare." I guess some people have goals to live, more acurately, exist, for 80 or 90 or 100 years but I'd rather live to XX. Maybe it's 60 and maybe it's 75 and maybe even longer.
Everyone I have heard make the claim to "save lives", such as "doctors save lives, blood donors save lives..etc have all died...Jesus is the source of life and if He saves a life, then one lives forever.
Well if Jesus is the creator/source of life, why is he not at fault for all the billions of deaths that have occurred?
It's not about being thin. It's about being healthy and able to enjoy the days we have left as much as we possibly can that keeps my husband eating clean and exercising regularly. There are far worse things than dying, if you hadn't noticed.
I'd puta moderate to severe stroke and being utterly dependant on someone else for absolutely everything, while being healthy enough to last a good long while at or near the top of that list.
Oh, but "heathcare" isn't health. Just the illusion of such.
All the people I saw in Vietnam were very thin and strong - perhaps walking 100's of miles down the Ho Chi Minh trail and eating rice and bamboo shoots had something to do with it....
Sounds like a bunch of bullshit to me . . . where were all the fat people during the Great Depression?? I guess they didn't have cars or poverty back then, eh?
True, more likely they want to ban cars and hand out more welfare.
I don't think HFC was invented until after that.
So much I'd like to say, but want to keep it short for the TLDR crowd.
Americans are more obese than ever?
Things are going exactly as planned considering sugar, high fructose corn syrup, wheat, corn, and soy are present in almost every goddamned thing in grocery stores. Further, the health issues persist and get worse because the physicians and whole healthcare industry are poised to profit from our ill health, AND that the CAUSES of these health issues are incorrectly identified (excess carbs, not fat).
So you think those fatties just need to eat more and move around less? The concentration camp model does work well at reducing bodyweight, but not in a healthy or sustainable way. For more on that, read about the Minnesota Starvation Experiment (brought to you by the same piece of shit who mainstreamed the "fat is bad" meme, Ancel Keys). Coincidentally, the MSE starvation diet resembles a modern calorie restriction diet.
Bottom line: Excess dietary carbohydrates result in dietary fat being stored, and stored fat not being used for energy. The carbohydrate consumption causes your body to choose carbs as the fuel source since they cannot be stored in large quantities. Further, the excess carbohydrate consumption interferes with your body's built in control system allowing you to eat more than you might otherwise (which is why you can eat half of a pizza and drink two or three beers and not think twice).
I have a feeling that someone is going to respond saying that carbs are not the enemy and that a plant-based diet is best. If we're supposed to eat a plant-based diet, why does a human digestive system more closely resemble that of a carnivore (meat eater) than a herbivore (plant eater)?
If fat is bad, why do we have a gall bladder?

I can only attest to my own experience. I am on a high carb (mostly raw) vegan diet. Haven't been to a doctor for 5 years (back then I was eating standard western diet). I've lost 40 lbs since then and I have plenty of muscle and practice yoga 6 x per week for 2 hours a clip.
That's a great data point. Nothing wrong with high carb if you eat low fat, and also nothing wrong with vegan if you get adequate protein. Eating animals makes it a lot easier (and tastier), though.
I lost almost 40 lbs in 6 months since switching to a high fat/low carb diet, from a standard "healthy" western diet.
The WOMEN are neck-n-neck with the men and many look like men...maybe that is the reason for such a high number?
BTW...your Primary Care Doctor is taking your BodyMassIndex measure on every visit...this is going to be used to further control the population via loss of liberties as the BMI will be used by the "Unaffordable Healthcare" to jack up rates unless you loose weight (obesity, poor diet, and environmental factors are the leading cause of death); like they already have on the "smokers" everyone loves to hate for illogical reasons imo.

If all the stats on diseases or conditions that kill Americans were put together; you would find that many more people are dying each year than actually die.
This is absolutely true and WILL happen at some point, guaranteed 100%. The argument has already been made successfully...if NOT having insurance is construed as costing insurees more, and that is used as justification for forcing you to buy it....then all behaviors that costs insurees more must also be fair game. Why is it ok for you to over eat, but not ok for me to choose not to have healthcare? Both are raising the cost of premiums. Same for smoking, drinking, riding motorcycles, climbing cliffs, etc,etc. All behaviors will be taxed.
Well said...thumbs up to you...it is about control or loss of liberties..."freedom" is a grand delusion & enslavement is reality; if people would only use a dictionary..oh well.
Eat when your hungry - problem solved.
The politics is "in the car"; they want us to drive less or buy their driver-less cars..a very scary thought when your child runs in front of one of them and the computer malfunctions.
No wonder have so many women hitting on me....12% body fat and in my 40s. Too bad ladies married so back to your fatties.
Don't just eat meat, eat meat from grass-fed animals.
Farmers are feeding their livestock with all menner of garbage, from scrap Jolly Ranchers to other pure or almost-pure HFCS or refined sugar products. Why? Ethanol, that's why. Feed prices skyrocketed some years ago, so the ranchers and farmers turned to scrap candy, and whatnot.
Remember that the next time you see a $30 steak dinner on a menu.
I made a comment to 847328_3527 and both that post and mine disappeared.
847328_3527 talked about eating pizza, complained about the FSA, stated that he/she was paying for medical insurance and resented having to pay for FSA who was not paying anything.
I responded by saying that I paid my insurance and did not use it much, ate right, excercised, etc, and felt like even though 847328_3527 paid their insurance, that they were stealing from me if they indeed were not taking care of their health and eating whatever.
I wonder why we were poofed?
Mine disappeared too!
My post got poofed too. Somebody said something the Tyler's didn't agree with.
You don't want to get/stay fat? Control your own insulin level, its that simple.
Insulin instructs all cells in your body to:
1. Stop buring fat,
2. Store all fats as fat,
3. Burn only sugar in the blood for energy.
The peoblem is, insulin lags sugar in the blood so once the excess sugar in the blood is gone, the insulin remains which creates a craving for more sugar...rinse and repeate. But sugar is NOT alone, its ALL carbohydrates will produce an insulin spike.
Want to lose wieght and keep it off:
1. No bread, NONE, cut it out completely,
2. No potatoes,
3. No rice,
4. Drink water, tea or coffee, NO SWEET DRINKS,
5. No candy AT ALL,
6. No cornflakes or any other breakfast cerreal,
7. NO Fruit juice,
8. Eat plenty of milk, butter, yogurt, bacon, eggs, steak, vegitables, fish, fruit...etc. Eat till you bust.
9. fry ONLY in butter or pork fat.
Do that, you will drop in weight and you will stay slim. Your body will self regulate. if you look carefully, you will find this is the kind of diet your great grand parents had on the farm. Sugar was an expensive luxury then.
