I finally found a copy of "What if It's All Been a Big Fat Lie" that doesn't require a NY Times membership. For anyone interested in this discussion, this is THE article to read.

"And Wirthling isn't worth the paper he isn't printed on."

I screwed up that link but now it's fixed.

"And Wirthling isn't worth the paper he isn't printed on."

What happened to the good old days when people would just shoot you in the head or pour poison in your ear or feed you to the lions?

What others say about boorite!

Skimming the article, I get the impression that it's building a bit of a straw man. Sure, the emphasis on "fat-free" tends to make people fatter. I think that's been a stated concern of health professionals ever since marketers went wild with "fat-free." Every doctor I read in the newspaper or hear on radio has been saying, "forget about fat-free. It's bullshit." They even point out that certain vitamins are only soluble in fat, and so you need fat.

Sheez, Julia Child said the same thing.

Yeah, if you think carbs aren't harmful, and you cut out all fat, and you binge on Snackwells or whatever, you'll sure as hell gain weight. Nobody I ever heard of ever contested that.

So fat in itself isn't evil, and carbs in themselves aren't good. That was a concept that marketers (not science) successfully promoted, much to our detriment. But are we supposed to believe as a result that carbs are evil and fat (or animal protein or whatever the diet says) is inherently good?

Again, I would look at a healthy person and ask, what does that person eat, and how does that person exercise?

You pig fuckers.

“It is only with the heart that one sees rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.” - The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (1945)

Enough with the weight LOSS thing... let's all try to acheive nirvana according to the methods of the cult religion SPHERE! Yes, yes, THIS is the way to go!

Sphere Saga: Part VII: when puns attack! by WiLzzt 7-29-02

You see, when I became ruler of this country, I joined a religion called sphere. Sphere is a religion that believes that when a human being reaches a certain weight, he will acheive nirvana. That weight is not quite 730 million tons. Reaching it is supposed to be very difficult. But, ever since I joined, I've been looking for ways to speed up the process so that it might actually occur in my lifetime. One of the things I've done is disconnect my head from my body. You may think this was an illogical decision, but really... ... wait. If I gave the punchline now, I'd just be getting a head of myself.

Sphere Saga: Part VIII: cruelty by WiLzzt 7-29-02

I soon discovered that eating was an inefficient way of gaining weight, so I had a special machine constructed. The machine is hooked directly up to the fat chambers on my body. As my body gains mass, the machine gets more power. It allows me to gain weight exponentially by sucking exponentially. I'll reach 730 million tons in to time! So, while I'm talking to you, my body sucks. It just sucks and sucks and sucks and sucks... I KNEW this was going nowhere as soon as I got here. Why do I even try... ...and sucks and sucks and sucks and sucks and...

Sphere Saga: Part X by WiLzzt 7-29-02

Finally, the man got around to telling Doctor Zbob the route to Chili's homeland...... .. so anyway after you take the two lefts and a right at the Three Forks, wait.... what's happening... can it be?! Yes! I have acheived perfect weight! Nirvana awaits!

Sphere Saga: Part XI by WiLzzt 7-29-02

Just seconds later... Hey, get down from there! You're got directions to give! I'm ascending! I am finally reaching the pinnacle of sphere, the first since since sphere's founder had a heart attack.! C'mon, please? You understand much about the world, dirty one. ...But what you DON'T understand ... ...is that I have acheived the greatest height of all humankind! I care not for your petty difficulties! WOOHOO I'M A PLANET!

So remember guys! 729.73 million tons is just around the corner!

Sadly, ObiJo has died of acute brain failure brought on by lack of carbohydrates. His last words were, "I'm still right, cocksucker." Let's all have a nice bagel in his memory.

Actually, I'm on the Anthrax diet. It sends your body into Anthraxosis. You lose a shitload of weight.

"You'll burn for this. Burn in jail!"

Dr Barry Sears has the following to say about "High Protein" diets, in his book, Enter The Zone:

I used the Zone diet, which is not a high protein diet, but a relatively balanced diet of protien, fat and carbs for 3 months. We stopped because its an expensive diet and we couldn't afford to remain on it.

Wirthling was telling me something about a high-protein tonsil wash, but I don't remember.
