“Have you seen the news stories about the obesity epidemic?”

No, my cheeks are so big now I have a permanent squint, so I can’t read the paper.

“Unlike Morgan Spurlock, I’m not afraid to let you see exactly what I ate on my fast-food diet. As you can see, I kept the carb count down by tossing the buns or muffins from about half of my meals, with an order of hash browns or fries here and there. I didn’t drink sugary soda at all – I don’t like the stuff, and haven’t since I was a teenager. By doing this, I was able to enjoy a Carb Options fudge bar or two on most nights and still keep my calories and carbohydrates within my target range.

This is more of a modified Zone diet than a true low-carb diet. Normally I limit my carbs even more than this, but I was aiming for fast-food meals I think most people would be willing to try. Some people just can’t bring themselves to give up starches completely.”

His food log page is interesting. Keep in mind what he says about chucking the hamburger buns. He seems to have mostly gone to McD’s, KFC and Boston Market. If you look at his website, he mainly blames bad carbs for our obesity problem (white bread, white rice, etc.).

I long for the day when the obesity epidemic baloney is as exposed as the global warming baloney.

Yes, being a fatso is bad, and yes, air pollution is bad. But there is no epidemic.
