Being “HUGE” has nothing to do with ‘what’ one eats, but more to do with ‘how much’.

I am amazed at the size of adults I see every day, but especially those in the medical workplaces. Men, women of all races. 300 pounds is becoming ‘average’.

Fast food is cheap and convenient. Less waste than leftover home cooking. I suspect few people cook from scratch - except for special occasions.

Eating carbs, spikes your blood sugar, so you get hungry more often.

Eating a high fat diet, keeps your blood sugar steady, so you can go most of the day without being hungry. I do 18:6 Intermittent Fasting, almost every day now, and on Keto, it’s a snap!

Not true.

Sugar needs to be handled very quickly by the body to keep blood sugar levels from killing you. Too ,uch sugar coming in too quickly has the body, as an emergency measure, store it as fat so it can be dealt with later.
