“Can someone please give us the Cliff notes on this video?

And, please, no paleo nitwits with “eat less, exercise more” bulls#it.”

Seriously? You want Cliff notes when You know the answer to you question.

Look at pictures of our soldiers during WWII. They were very skinny.

Yes they were. They were doing highly physical work on limited calories.

In the fifties you burned a lot of calories just living. And while calories were not as limited as they were before and during WWII they were not as easily accessed as they are today.

Now things that took energy to do can be done with the push of a button if even that is needed.

Let's just look at what it took to pay the phone bill. You went to the bank, stood in line, took out the money, went to the phone company, stood in line, paid your bill.

Today the money is taken out of your account without you lifting a finger.

In the fifties you burned off at least a hundred calories paying the phone bill. Today, zero.

“Portion size and exercise.”

You’ve been brainwashed by the educational establishment. See the video and how it explains the caloric balance is a tragic and life destroying myth.

Do you intend to imply all obese people eat like the women in these pictures? If so, you need to pay close attention to the information in the video.

I beg your pardon. The YouTube like at the end of the post works fine. Thank you.

I was distracted by the “cold” link in your reply #1.

Check out this video from the 60’s or was it the 70’s. I’m not sure.

Where could you go today to find that many thin teens in one room. Certainly not to Walmart.

Do you have a subliminal ad hidden in the video or something as to why you are pushing it so hard?

It took much mental energy to decide to click it only to see that it's over an hour long. It's too late and I'm too tired .

You can't do us a favor and just type out the pertinent parts?

I have plenty of empirical evidence to suggest that. High choleric diet + sedentary lifestyle =
