Some Kind of Normal-Full
|
.I’ve been patting myself on the back a lot lately. A whole lot. I’m losing weight, I’ve reduced the volume of the food I’m eating, I’ve cut back the carbs, and the little averages my smarty-pants meter is calculating is dipping. Heck, I even got my mail-order HbA1c test back and am in the normal range, so my pancreas may be limping but it’s not busted (yet, if ever ... I’m just hoping the genetic dice roll good for me, too).I’m doing the research, I’m eating better, and everything is perfect. This is easy! Except for the stabbing pain where my gallbladder used to be. Oh, yeah, that.Did I ever mention that I had my gall bladder out? About four years ago. And the first few months I couldn’t eat anything “good”. I just stuck to carbs and tried to keep the protein up with lean meat...

Are we really becoming steadily more sedentary?
|
Body weight, and specifically fatness, is determined by a complex interplay of factors including diet, exercise and sleep habits.

|
A lot of people are excited about Gary Taubes' book Good Calories, Bad Calories, which claims that weight loss or gain has nothing to do with how many calories you eat but how much refined carbohydrate you eat. I heard Taubes present his ideas at a conference last year and he makes some great points. Ultimately, I agree with his conclusion--over-consumption of refined carbohydrates is a primary cause in today's epidemic of "diabesity." .............

Help Needed: How do we Change our Eating Habits?
|
My husband and I had an xl pizza from papa john's last night for dinner. We both work late most nights. We've talked about wanting to do something about our weight/eating habits but it never sticks. We've started yoga, then stopped after just a few days. We can't seem to get motivated enough, mainly because we are unsure of where and how to start. I'm writing this in hopes that someone who can relate to us may be able to help us figure out what the best starting point is....

Exercise associated with reduced levels of fat in the liver and abdomen
|
A couple of months ago I wrote a blog which reviewed the evidence which suggests that exercise is not particularly effective for weight loss, and why this might be. That is not to say, however, that exercise is a fruitless endeavour. It is linked, for instance, with improved measures of health as well as reduced....
