Guest guest Posted August 15, 2006 Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 So I guess Jack LaLanne's comment; "Don't eat food that tastes good." is a summary. "Don't eat anything made by man." another. We can bang on big companies all we like but until we get smarter than they, we will consume their products. We hafta quit smoking - easy. We hafta choose the "right" food - not so easy. I notice tobacco companies are still here. Next year they'll be pumping stuff into fresh vegetables and fruit - maybe already. What will you do - grow your own? Hell, they may have already gened the produce to make us eat more product. We need to tout a different and simpler one liner that gets at the heart of the matter - "high-calorie-density food" doesn't get it. What is that? Takes a book to explain it. Too many people focus on blaming someone else. Don't eat because you're hungry. Regards.

Guest guest Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 Hi folks: To add to what JW said below, it may be worth repeating something JW said here a couple of years ago, which very approximately was: " If you eat a sensibly-sized serving of something, and as soon as you have finished it you notice that you feel a need to eat more of it, think about what it is in it that is having that effect, and consider eliminating it from your diet. " Peanuts are perhaps the most classic example. In my case I have a (very short) back-of-my-mind list of foods to try not to buy, because I know if I buy them at the supermarket today they will be gone before lights out! While no doubt we have many of these foods in common, I am sure we each have examples that are unique to each of us. Along with peanuts, indeed any kind of nuts (so I only buy the number I plan to eat immediately), whole grain pita bread is on my list, as well as a locally produced and apparently very healthy whole grain flat bread flavored with apple, raisins and cinnamon! Others do not come to mind right now most likely because there are none in the house .......... I already ate them! These foods are not necessarily unhealthy. Rather they are items which I know that, if I buy them, will make it more difficult for me to keep to my planned caloric intake for the day. I would be interested to hear others' lists of items of this kind, so we could consider if they should be on our own 'avoid' lists. The corollary of the above is that, on a day when by late afternoon you do not feel notably hungry, make a list of what it was you had eaten earlier in the day. Then experiment to see whether that works consistently for you in controlling the need to eat. (That was probably a JW suggestion originally, too.)

Guest guest Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 My wife cannot eat just an ounce of peanuts. I like them to stay a hunger, but I cannot keep them around even if I hide them. She can smell them. She insists we don't buy them, so now I've given up trying to control her urge. I bought the plainest, no salt, dry cooked type. We still have the peanut butter, Scudders, and she can't eat that by the handful. The new V-8 low sodium has some super flavoring, so much if you make the stew on the label, you'll eat all of it. Several years ago M & M came out with NEW M & M's. Same thing. What was new is you eat 14 oz without stopping. The new flavored tomatoes seem OK, good to replace sauces, salsa - less salt. Safest is to get some plain black-eyed peas, mix with tomatoes and add frozen okra. Regards.

Guest guest Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 Alarm gets us moving but let us not linger there... we've added our names to petitions objecting the insanity, & we've informed our friends & family. What now can we do that is productive? The general public does not have privy to the proposals voted into law. Besides, as we have learned from the recent presidental veto, it's not about what the people want. -automn ----- Original Message ----- From: " Dave Shelden " <wholehealthawareness@...> " gallstones " <gallstones > Sent: Thursday, May 03, 2007 7:12 PM Subject: one more http://www.healthfreedom.net/index.php?option=com_content & task=view & id=214 & Itemi\ d=249<http://www.healthfreedom.net/index.php?option=com_content & task=view & id=214\ & Itemid=249> The link above gets you to the HFF's Latest update on the FDA's Guidance document.
