Down with HFCS!

I think Cherny's point, "If you are FULL, you're overeating," is a good one. There are exceptions, of course, but my understanding is that you are supposed to stop eating before you feel full, not once you feel full. That involves a greater awareness than I have of my own body, and I frequenly overstuff myself as a dog would. Heh. It's also something that I heard a doctor explain to my mother a long time ago, after she had half of her stomach removed After the Ulcers Attacked!

Smaller portion sizes eaten as smaller meals throughougt the day help to regulate our matabolism, I think, and one may even develop a better understanding of how much food she can consume in one sitting. I just can't seem to find the time to prepare 5 snack packs for the day. Maybe with my new cookware/equipment, that will become less of a problem. I've also read that certain food combos assist metabolism, while other foods, mixed together, slow it down. But I may have read that in a book written by Suzanne Summers.

On the whole, eat well and exercise, moderating indulgences as you see fit based on the body type you want to mantain or have. I'll eat healthier and exercise more, but I'll never cut out carbs (mmm, breads!) or sugar (mmm, booze!) in pursuit of a smaller, less flabby waist line. My beer marsupial pouch stays with me.

Hey, don't knock it. My mom lost (and has kept off) on the order of 100lbs on the Suzanne Summers plan after 3 decades of failed attempts.

My parents also had great success with the book, so I was only really pretending to knock it. I found a lot of good and easy recipes in there, too. They do make for great small meal snack packs.
