My M-I-L ragged mercilessly on my F-I-L on how he ate. The stress of it did more to damage his health than what he ate. Actually, he was in better health than my M-I-L.
Not to hijack the thread here, but the Gov. BMI rating are ridiculous. I am in good health and active (aerobics 3 days a week, swimming 2 miles 4 days a week) but still are considered overweight by Gov. BMI (5'11" 185lb.)
the Chicken rule is simple: If it’s spicy, it’s garbage meat. They needed to hide that.
If you eat chicken with some mild breading (Or of course, none at all but yech) then it’s good chicken.
Avoid spicy stuff at all costs. Things spray painted orange too.
People who eat “health food”(unbleached whole grains, low fat foods, yogurt with a dairy base, green vegetable high in lectins, and fruit (fructose end up with Ulcerative Colitis. The antidote: eat junk food: bleached white flour sourdough bread, avoid dairy and lactose, avoid fruit, avoid green vegetables with high lectins that destroy your gut lining.
***What is “junk food”? Essentially any food that is highly processed,****
Define “Highly Processed.”
We have a health food store near here that sells lots of vegan stuff like soy beans processed into fake meat.
Fake hamburger, fake hot dogs, all “highly processed”.
A McDonald’s super fan might eat his 30,000th Big Mac this May...

I agree with the point of this article — that eating mainly fruits, veggies and lean meats (limit the dairy and especially avoid grains) is the best way to maintain optimum health, but that allowing oneself some limited “cheat” items is a better way to go than constant self-denial.
The trick is finding a way to set limits that works. For instance, only allow yourself a McDonald’s item two times a week, avoid driving by the McD’s on the other days, and only allow yourself one item, not a whole meal. That’s two items per week.
I’ve lost ten pounds since Christmas by shoving the fruits and veggies in (2 mealtimes and 1 snack time) whether I think I want them or not. Sometimes I do a week of “two items from Wendy’s on two different days this week” and sometimes I do “one cupcake on two different days.” It is starting to break the cravings for sugar, chocolate, etc and I’m actually starting to crave some of the healthy foods.
