Eliminate pasta, rice, bread and potatoes and the weight falls off...

Oh no, I agree with you, completely. Atkins really nailed that stuff. Best advice? When shopping for food in the supermarket, only shop the perimeter; where the refrigeration units are located. That's where all the real food is.

Have you ever seen the SNL fake infomercial for the "Stop Eating Like A Goddamn Pig Diet"? (or something just like that) Its amazing.

...and the produce section, of course.

It's true. Once you deprive your body of sugar and get past the withdrawal (after you discover how much of a sugar junkie you were and didn't know it), your blood-sugar stabilizes, you're less hungry, no afternoon crashes and you lose weight.

Remarkable. Sugar is the enemy, not fat. You can eat whole butter, leave the skin on chicken, eat the fat on the steak, etc. It's sugar that causes obesity.

Well, yes, portion control is, quite frankly, out of control in this country, but it's the choices in our entrées we should look at too.

You can't have a bagel for breakfast, pasta for lunch and then Mexican burritos with beans and rice for dinner and wonder why your blood sugar is through the roof.

That excessively high blood sugar only makes people hungrier.

And until a few years the food pyramid that we all grew up with said we should base our diets on all that stuff.

There was a documentary I watched (can't remember the name of it) but it told of how that whole food pyramid scam was, in part, concocted by the wheat growers of the country...I think. Whoever started that horseshit, it was money-driven; not science-driven, despite shitloads of scientific evidence that refuted it.

Ah that explains it.

It blew my mind when I read a book in the 90s called "Sugar Busters". I used to think I was being really healthy when eating a big plate of spaghetti with tomato sauce since it was so low in fat. :facepalm"

Woody Allen in "Sleepers" was right all along.

I am not on a diet, but I never eat pasta or rice, and I occasionally will eat bread and potatoes. Yet I'm about 20lbs overweight. Although it could be from all the excessive drinking and little to no exercise... Maybe.
