Mostly I'm tired of having full fat for the toddler and low fat for the rest of us.Marciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13984899661746845414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37886248.post-20117015175767206052014-02-22T06:14:29.096-08:002014-02-22T06:14:29.096-08:00Hi Chacha, I checked the Serious Eats link and it&...Hi Chacha, I checked the Serious Eats link and it's okay. Not sure what might have happened before. <br /><br />The full-fat thesis is fascinating for another reason: it shows that not all calories are equal--at least from the standpoint of our bodies. A calorie from fiber, fat or protein provides much more satiety (and provides that satiety for a far longer time) than a calorie from sugar or carbohydrates. Thus, you eat less. <br /><br />One of the key changes I've made to my diet is I have replaced my historically carb-based breakfasts with a protein- and fat-based meal. It keeps me feeling full for longer and, as counterintuitive as it sounds, it's helped me lose some body fat too. <br /><br />DK<br />Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02388302796031288076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37886248.post-7751475693114663292014-02-21T10:04:37.829-08:002014-02-21T10:04:37.829-08:00dang, I couldn't get the Serious Eats post to ...dang, I couldn't get the Serious Eats post to load. But here's my version:<br /><br />chablis = chardonnay<br />burgundy = pinot noir<br />bordeaux = cabernet sauvignon, blended, mostly dry<br />beaujolais nouveau = what you should drink all summer (chilled)<br />champagne = paint stripper OR the best thing you ever put in your mouth.<br /><br />GMOs: my position is pretty simple. Ample (for me) evidence supports the conclusion that feralized GMOs contribute to rapid destruction of natural ecosystems. Ample evidence also supports the conclusion that GMOs are a power-grab and a profiteering menace by certain multinational multibilliondollar corporations which I am happy to personally blame for farmer suicides in India and bankruptcies in the U.S. Therefore, I hate GMOs.<br /><br />Full-fat dairy: I'm a dairy girl myself but with a 100% sedentary job, I can't afford the extra calories. Mi esposo drinks full-fat raw milk and has certainly been healthier since he started, though I wouldn't say it's helped to keep his weight down, mostly because he does not adjust for the calories elsewhere (so it's not the milk's fault, is all I'm sayin').chacha1http://www.ombailamos.comnoreply@blogger.com
