You can just eat that much less food to get the same effect. People who can keep up exercise programs are simply more disciplined than people who cannot. This discipline transfers to their eating habits. If they lose more weight, it's because of their eating habits, not the exercise. Correlation doesn't mean causation. Nobody's saying you should be a sloth. Do a certain amount of walking and the like. Go hiking or participate in a team sport if you want more. But artificial make-work activity like going to a gym is stupid and a waste of your precious hours on earth.

I've become so cynical about nearly everything I see advertised anymore for weightloss, and health related products. Is there no such thing as truth in advertising? Do people really have no honesty? It seems as though greed has completely taken the place of business ethics. Very interesting information!

]]> Comment on Zero Carb when Pregnant by 2BIG http://mariasols.com/2008/10/04/zero-carb-when-pregnant/#comment-2691 2BIG Tue, 21 Oct 2008 03:25:38 +0000 http://mariasols.com/?p=230#comment-2691 Thanks for blogging about this. you are right about Charles selective interpretation of Stefansson's writings. I found it interesting when Stefansson was discussing the muscle only part of the Bellvue study protocal he told the docs no it makes folk ill and sited his caribou eating experience when after 2 weeks of just eating that that all got sick. it was included in his first eating experience during the study and as he said within days he got sick and had to have a diet change to include other protein sources and lots more fat. When questioned about how the beef meat only diet for pregnant folk would supply the increased nutrtional needs of the baby he refused to provide any sample menu to show how those needs could be meet.

I'm sorry your carb addiction is so strong you would vilify anyone who suggested eliminating as many carbohydrates as possible. It must be so difficult for you to be so incredibly carb centric that you've turned the simple process of eating into a ritual worthy of a heroin addict preparing his kit.
