Btw shykins...shivering definitely uses up more calories, your body is using energy to try to create heat.

Fathead movie Watch all the clips for a good laugh.
Fat Head
You’ve been fed a load of bologna

Synopsis
Brief:
A comedian replies to the “Super Size Me” by losing weight on a fast-food diet (including plenty of double-cheeseburgers and fried chicken) while demonstrating that almost everything you think you know about the obesity “epidemic” and healthy eating is wrong. In short, you’ve been fed a load of bologna.

Long:
Have you seen the news stories about the obesity epidemic? Did you see “Super Size Me”? Then guess what ... You've been fed a load of bologna. Comedian and former health writer Tom Naughton replies to the “Super Size Me” crowd by losing weight on a fat-laden fast-food diet – including plenty of double quarter-pounders and fried chicken – while demonstrating that nearly everything we've been told about obesity and healthy eating is wrong. (Even his doctor was stunned while conducting a post-diet checkup.)
Along with some delicious parody of “Super Size Me,” Naughton serves up plenty of no-bologna facts that will stun most viewers, such as:
· The obesity “epidemic” has been wildly exaggerated by the CDC.
· People the government classifies as “overweight” have longer lifespans than people classified as “normal weight.”
· Having low cholesterol is unhealthy and is linked to cancer, stroke and suicide.
· Lowfat diets can lead to depression and type II diabetes.
· The food police, who are now suing restaurants for frying food in hydrogenated oils, harassed the restaurants into switching to those oils 20 years ago.
· Saturated fat doesn't cause heart disease – the “research” was manipulated from the very beginning – but sugars, starches and processed vegetable oils do.
The film features humorous animations as well as informative interviews with doctors, nutritionists, and political scientists.

Just to let all you low-carbers know that for a very limited time (I have no idea how long) Art Devany has free access to his full blog while he gets a new site up and running. I have just spent a very happy hour perusing some of the private blog I previously couldn't access. Hope it works for you.

Can i just post a warning to people on this thread.
I have previously done the atkins diet a couple of times and it made me severely depressed and I ended up overdosing on one occasion.
I realise that not everyone will have the same effects i had but please proceed with caution especially those prone to depression.
