"Vegan isn’t that healthy."

Especially now days. There is a huge industry of vegan processed frozen foods. And just like regular processed frozen foods, the vegan counterparts have lots of sodium and sugar.

Many people have this idea of vegans and vegetarians as all looking like the 1960's model Twiggy. Not the case. I've met a lot of fat, not just slightly overweight, but fat vegans....

Nick,

There a little island resort that can take care of this problem for America. People join the club down there and the fat ones get to be thin ones. The best part about it is you get paid for losing weight!

The island is called Parris Island and the resort is called Marine Corps Boot Camp. If you can’t hack it during the beginning of first phase, they have something called the Physical Conditioning Platoon (PCP) or as it is commonly referred to, the pork chop platoon. Let me tell you something, body shaming works, hard PT all day long and eating minimally works. I’ve seen massive weight loss there.

No carbs? Just meat and oil and butter? I’m diabetic, so, always check the number of carbs. Everything has carbs, except the few I mentioned.

Being intentionally dense? No carbs. Bread, pasta, potatoes, etc.

What do you eat that has no carbs? As a diabetic, that information is extremely important to me. I need a list.

Yeah, I’m thinking that younger folk watching “The Honeymooners” would probably wonder at all of the fat jokes.
