I once came across a guy that advised "eat like a gourmet", better quality food but less of it and spend some time appreciating what you are eating. Ever noticed how quickly overweight people eat?
I am trying to put forward realistic weight loss tips in my blog http://burnflab.org/category/eat-to-lose-weight/

I just sent this post to a bunch of my friends as I agree with
most of what you’re saying here and the way you’ve presented it
is awesome.

I also blog from time to time on this stuff. In fact, here’s an
expert from my most recent blog post…

In conjunction with reducing your food intake, it is advised that you reduce the amount of sweets or junk food that you eat. For fast weight loss, you will want to completely eliminate junk food from your diet, even if it is only for a short period of time. This means that if you want a snack, you should grab an apple or an orange instead of a chocolate bar or a bag of chips. With candy and other sweets being high in calories, you may see a significant decrease in your calorie consumption by eliminating them from your diet.

First off congrats on losing 21 pounds. I lost 30 myself and most people think it's extremely hard but really it just takes discipline. People need to realize that organic fruits and veggies are a great way to start but also a lot of weight gain can be due to not just eating but drinking too.

I recently wrote an article over here on Cokes or Diet Coke? Which is Better For You? Check it out for some great additional info.

I agree with continued moderation proper diet and what also has helped me with
Weight Loss and maintaining the goals that I have reached. Is water intake approx 1 oz per 2 lbs of body weight. Cheers drink up! It really helps when you are very tired or hungry.

Just shows how well the old expression, "everything in moderation" is and that we don't need an expensive pill to fix everything. Cliff Manchester says the same sort of things in his program http://www.chestcoachsystemexposed.com

PDM, when you look at the chemsitry the difference of HFCS (a 55:45 Fructose:Glucose mix) compared to sucrose (50:50 Fructose:glucose) is so minor, that it's really not going to be a major factor in the obesity epidemic... While there are early studies suggesting Fructose may be ever so slightly worse for you than glucose, it's really a tiny difference we're talking, and is so small a factor, it's not worth worrying about. Big Food's propaganda adverts in the US saying HFCS is essentially the same as sucrose are (perhaps disappointingly) accurate... While it only exists because of sugar import taxes and corn subsidies, it's not actually evil, or a significant factor to blame for fat people being fat!

Don't necessarily disagree with the idea of only eating things that have been around for 100 years, interesting idea! HFCS is perhaps a bad example though, :)

cool, sounds close enough to my own revelations.

I've since fallen off the wagon but I'm in the process of getting back on. Your blog is just the encouragement I need.

Yes by all means eliminate the sodas, and the artificial sweeteners and all the other crap they try to pass off as food these days.

There is an idea that is a bit similar to this one at the Health Journal Club. The idea is to only eat foods which have been around for 100 years or more, hence no high fructose corn syrup soda. It's pretty interesting.

Hi John,

You may have discovered for yourself the dirty secret about dieting and losing weight.

In a related topic check out this lecture called "Sugar - The Bitter Truth" which may open your eyes about dieting and nutrition research:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBnniua6-oM

Robert H. Lustig, MD, UCSF Professor of Paediatrics in the Division of Endocrinology, explores the damage caused by sugary foods.

The lecture is about 1h 30m long but worth watching and will confirm what you have found with regards to sugary drinks.

Kind Regards

Yeah, BMI is of questionable usefulness for many reasons. But especially worthless for active folks with above average muscle mass.

Anyway, good job. I lost a lot of weight about 8 years ago and have kept it off through selective vigilance.
