the facts are

ONE SIZE DOESNT FIT ALL>>

we are being got at.. because most of our food is over processed......which makes it easier to eat and of course digest....where it disappears quick and we think we are still hungry..

so eat all the more...

its time we woke up to ourselves we are being conned by marketing...

get back to old fashioned food and cooking..

dont cook from a packet...make from scratch..everything to day is in a packet or frozen wake up girls its all treated..its all contaminated...and not for your benefit...but the manufacturers...

havent you noticed how long the lists of ingredients is getting...and havent you noticed they are getting harder to read?????...

let a lone know what the hell you are reading..

we are being conned...dont buy crumbed fish chicken prawns..crumbed anything... do it yourself...

use brown rice.. do sour dough bread.. all dearer by a few cents but its worth it..it will FILL YOU UP..

especially if you have children who are battling their weight..anything white is stripped of anythign of value...

but its easier to eat....we are so lazy we have forgotten how to chew.

.

Great post cods and very true- we have become lazy and consumeristic and not paying attention to our health anymore- our health is all we have.

Hmmm, I'm with cods on this one.

I've said all of this some 18 months to 2 years ago..

cooking with raw ingredients..

I showed you all how to make stews and soups from scratch using fresh vegetables and lean meat..

and great they are as well..however it isnt the main meals that are the biggest problem...we snack continously .. cant even go into a chemist without having food of some sort in your face...lollies mainly...sugar loads....

look in the drink dispenser machines...the water is down low the sugar filled are eye level..

its up to the manufacturer where their products are shown to us..

if they pay more then they are placed better...which means they sell more.. because we are stoooopid.. and being led by marketing...

are our fruit and vegies FRESH.. like they CLAIM..

I doubt it...and we all know they start losing value as soon as they are picked....

nothing I buy today is anything like what we had years ago....size smell taste its all gone...

I can understand them trying to preserve everything..but for how long./ do I really need to buy a piece of cheese with a 12months use by???>.

.havent you noticed... the length of time has got longer...we can now buy food with 2017 on it...WHY?...is a famine coming????

to do that.. this product is being treated....and I for one do not like it.

agnes you may have noticed I think and see things different from most people....and what I am saying is true...today we are blinded by medicine we think there is a pill for everything that ails us.. so we dont really need to look after this body.. a pill or a bottle of cream will fix it all..

yeah right..

.look at the folks that still roast themselves on the beaches....its ok.. they will have a cure soon...and those wrinkles will all be gone when I try the latest jar of cream..at some extraordinary price...

lazy is being kind.. agnes... sloths do better.they do use some intelligence....we just waste ours..

Small meals often.

Many people disagree.

"Are six small meals really better for your metabolism, than a healthy three-meals-a-day diet? It's time to get to the bottom of this popular weight-loss myth.

"The Truth: The exact opposite is true: If you keep eating small amounts of food throughout the day, you'll never burn any fat."

http://www.jillianmichaels.com/fit/lose-weight/myth-small-meals

"Eating More Meals Does NOT Speed Up Your Metabolism".

http://www.theiflife.com/eating-more-meals-does-not-speed-up-your-metabolism/

METABOLISM MYTH: Eating 5-6 small meals “boosts your metabolism”

http://www.ariwhitten.com/metabolism-myth-eating-5-6-small-meals-boosts-your-met...

"Anyone looking to drop a few pounds better be grazing on frequent meals and snacks throughout the day right? Turns out the old notion of eating a meal every three to four hours to ramp up one’s metabolism wasn’t exactly perfect advice. In fact, how frequently someone eats has little to do with the speed of their metabolism."

http://dailyburn.com/life/health/metabolism-myths-weight-loss/

It depends on what you eat. If you're hoeing into a big steak, that;s all you need for the day. If you are eating mostly plant matter, you need to eat more than that.

Think of how animals do it. Herbivores graze. Carnivores don''t even eat daily.

The problem isn't with the amount of food people eat alone, it is with the type of food people ear. Eat plant matter. Often. Eat animal protein no more than once a day ... and if it is a big serve, eat less of everything else. Eat more fibre the next day. I personally think once a day is too often, but that;s just me.

And when i say small measl, meal is probably the wrong word. I mean a handful of almonds ... or an apple. Coffee, as Lisa relies on, won't do it. It's empty.

Starving yourself WILL slow your metabolism. It will certainly deprive you of energy. Eat when hungry but know that processed foods make you feel hungry more often. So do soft drinks, especially diet ones. They increase appetite.

If you can't be a good example, you have to be a horrible warning.

the cultures that eat little but fresh.. do a lot more as well.. they quite often catch their own or grow their own.. unlike us spoilt ones.

you should have watched that show.. it debunks all that....you only need to exercise 3 times a week....and its got nothing to do with power...

What was that show you watched cods?

And on what channel?

It may be on Iview or equivalent

This, perhaps:

http://www.sbs.com.au/ondemand/video/11889219955/michael-mosley-the-truth-about-...

thats the one but it was on channel 9.. the truth about exercise......

I found it interesting because they test everything out....its what happens inside you body what your blood does with it all...of course we cant have all those tests and so on... but we can take notice of them....and being the BBC we know its all above board dont we?..well I mean they are not selling something.

A very interesting link. Thanks

if you are not the type who is good in the kitchen.. and lets face it... we all know about Lisa's cooking.. Cool

then it may pay to have a look at this..

http://www.liteneasy.com.au/nova/food_dinners.html

if you do an all meal 7 days a week.. you'll get calorie controlled meals all day every day..

all you have to do is stick to the meals that you are given..

so for a woman of say 160 cm in height weighing around 120 - 130kgs... and who does not exercise.. the recommended plan would be a 1500 calorie daily food plan...

you can't go wrong and it'll teach you meal sizes etc and different types of foods you may not have though about..

Why do you think my husband married me?

It wasn't just for my superior cleaning and washing skills you know Tongue

I cook all that type of food anyway. There's nothing unusual or difficult there.

the trick is calorie control..

a lot of people in a western society don't have a clue in how much they should eat..

just fill up the large plate and DON"T STOP EATING until its all gone..

every last crumb..

as mechanic explains lisa.. its all about quantity...

if you cook a big pot of spag bol...and serve a small dish for yourself...

whats the chances of you going back for more???

I find cooking for one.. hard to be honest..someone said cook enough and freeze.....all well and good but I would find myself eating what was meant to be frozen....my intentions never worked out..
