I ate dinner at TGI Friday’s last night. Dragonfire
chicken and unsweetened iced tea. The table
next to me started with fried chicken nuggets
slathered in BBQ sauce and large glasses of cola.
The main meal arrived. Enormous quantities on
the plates. The food was inhaled with vigor. Dessert
was being served as a I paid my check. One
woman at that table easily tipped the scales at
350+ lbs. I eat at a restaurant daily and I’ve
lost 25 lbs over the last 2 years. It isn’t what is
on the menu. It is gluttonous over consumption.
The principal problem lies between the ears. Eat
like a pig on a regular basis and you will end up
that way.
I still say it is idleness, not consumption. If you want to truly be fit and healthy, it requires a lot more calorie, protien, and fat consumption than what is recommended. A thin person that doesn’t move but eats very little is no healthier than a 250 pound manual laborer.
Yep.
You, I, and Aristotle make a fine team.
