right, but the sugar isn't makign you fat, it's the excess food you will consume

for what it's worth, i like all foods and i think diets where you completely cut something out are ridiculous (IE cutting out all carbohydrates, cutting out all meat, etc - i don't mean getting rid of sugar becuase of course that is a good thing)

depends on the preparation but i would think that seafood is generally healthier than red meat.

although i'm sure that many people around here will not not agree

It's meat. In moderation, some fish is very good for your blood cholersterol and triglyceride levels due to the ratio of Omega 3 to omega 6 oils in fish like salmon. It's also a good source of protein.

If she didn't eat bacon every once in awhile I am pretty sure she'd be the anti-Christ.

why .. why must this stupid shit be said every time?


Sugar doesn't actually make you fat it just leads to you being fat :spock:



**** off

Yeah but for a lot of people, it will.

It's easy to binge on carbs. It's ****ing easy to sit there and eat a whole bag of potato chips.

Meat is a lot more filling and satisfying in smaller amounts.

Main concern with fish these days is mercury levels.

watch for fish at the top of the food chain - lots of mercury in the bigger fish like tuna

quiet fatty, the adults are talking

i acknowledge what buck said and it's correct.

and yeah, sugar is bad

but don't think you can eat lard and not get fat

And fat is making you fat? Do you see how what you're arguing is flawed?

I think this is what I'll do. And treat myself to a good steak once per month.

I'm going to make this change. The 40 days gives me a goal. I think that, by the time the 40 days is up, I won't even realize it's been 40 days. Giving myself that time will help keep me on track while I make the adjustment.

If I were going to pick between an entire bag of chips which I guess is vegetarian by definition, or a 24 oz top sirloin? I'd chow down that sirloin! Having said that, neither is a very good choice.

jumping off a cliff doesn't kill you, it's just the suddenly stop at the bottom



derp,derp,derp ....

it can make you fat

just like sugar

its not just one or the other

its a combo.

I'M NOT DISAGREEING WITH YOU - i love meat and it gets a really bad reputatioon

but excess consumption of grease IS NOT A GOOD THING

Good luck Luv. google some vegetarian recipes. Use lots of Quinoa instead of processed flour carbs like regular pasta and bread. you will be surprised how you can make a meal taste delicious and filling and not use meat at all. Then, as you said, treat yourself once in a while.
