School isnt where I learned anything. I got validated. I taught myself. I was interested in things. Its all racial. If you dont have the raw material, thats it. I am Germanic-Celtic. But despite my "white privelige" and the fact that my ancestors came to VA with the Jamestown company...I was the first in my family to attend college. For what good it did me. My son has graduated, he delivers pizzas.

It's so true that it's become a cliche; it's why Italians and French people are generally thinner than Americans despite eating a fat- and carb-rich diet. <br /><br />By all means, have a filet mignon for dinner, but have a 4 oz portion, not the 8-12 oz portion usually served in American restaurants.<br /><br />Haagen Dazs ice cream is sold in Dixie-cup sized portions as well as the usual pints. It's same rich, delicious ice cream as in the larger containers, but the little cups have only 230-310 calories (depending on the flavor). They satisfy the need for dessert without doubling the fat and calorie intake of the meal. <br /><br />Oh, and there's no need to have 3 full meals a day. Eat sparingly at breakfast and lunch so you can enjoy a satisfying dinner. It will give you something to look forward to while you're downing the yogurt or energy bar and diet soda that serve as your lunch. The worst thing you can do is try to make every meal "low fat" or "low cal." You'll end up enjoying nothing that you eat and stuffing yourself to make up for it. Save the cals/fat for one good meal a day. <br /><br />Mind you, if I could stick faithfully to these rules, I wouldn't keep gaining and losing the same 20 lbs over and over; but they do work.Steve Woodnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-49344654673122624782010-09-07T11:47:33.953-07:002010-09-07T11:47:33.953-07:00For the past week or so, I have used an old weight...For the past week or so, I have used an old weightlifter's trick for increasing testosterone - abstention from carbs after midday.<br /><br />Since what Steve calls the "manly molecule" is inversely correlated with body fat, those men who want to lose some blubber might want to try it.<br /><br />I can tell you this: it has shot my libido through the roof.

As far as all ...Simple. Calories in, calories out.<br /><br />As far as all of you afraid of soy, the latest studies show it's perfectly fine for men to consume and you might even live a little longer.<br /><br />Studies from the centenarian population in Okinawa (where they consume lots of soy protein and next to or little meat) show that the genetic factor is minimal and diet and their outlook on life is key. They also do not suffer a lot of the typical illnesses of old age that those in the west do (heart attacks, cancer etc.) Okinawans that immigrate to other places and adapt to a Western diet of high saturated fats and a high stress lifestyle (such as the lifestyle of the Japanese that live on the mainland) have) have the same life expectancy as all others that consume the same diet.Colnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-79555470969224493422010-09-07T10:24:49.444-07:002010-09-07T10:24:49.444-07:00I stick with vegetables - especially carrots, cele...I stick with vegetables - especially carrots, celery, broccoli, cauliflower, and radishes - and whole wheat bread, lightly salted nuts, and even hard-boiled eggs; avoid soda and go with water, vegetable juice, and milk/chocolate milk.<br /><br />Fruit is good, but avoid dried fruit - too easy to consume too much. Think of how many grapes there are in a handful of raisins.<br /><br />Variety is important. You're likely to get tired of one single goto snack item, and it isn't good nutritionally, either. If what's said about soy is correct, then it isn't good in other ways, either.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-50929209375017888932010-09-07T10:24:40.600-07:002010-09-07T10:24:40.600-07:00I find it funny that the paleo and hbd bloggers ar...I find it funny that the paleo and hbd bloggers are joining forces.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-52382254772672697612010-09-07T07:45:26.296-07:002010-09-07T07:45:26.296-07:00Bantam,

Korean medical studies have linked it to an increase in prostate cancer. And it contains phytoestrogens which can damage or inhibit the development of the male reproductive organs when over-consumed. It's suspected as one reason Asian males have such diminutive dingle-dangles.<br /><br />I'm actually surprised Steve recommends any kind of binging for a diet plan. It's so unscientific.

My conclusions:<br /><br />You have to work at it, consciously keeping your consumption down.<br /><br />It's much easier to control your appetite with low carb.<br /><br />Raw almonds do for me what edamame does for you. (6 calories per almond, so count them.) They can get you over between-meal hunger pangs, and though they're good, they're not that good. I'd gorge on roasted, seasoned almonds.<br /><br />Seth Roberts' Shangri-La Diet (based on the idea that consuming unflavoured calories lowers your setpoint weight) is not as crazy as it sounds.
