Hugging and Chalking

This blog is about obesity and the inanity/insanity it spawns, the encroaching lawsuits and growing diet industry. Obesity is a matter of genes and personal responsibility. You can have an endocrine problem, or you can have a balance problem (too many calories and too little exercise). It’s not where you eat, but how much you eat; it’s not McDonald’s fault, or Mama’s fault, or Washington’s fault if your body is too fat or too thin. Rosabelle.

Fat sells big

Last week I noticed the following titles on the best seller list in USAToday.

The best life diet by Bob Greene
"A pretty down to earth read for anyone trying to incorporate a healthy lifestyle. Not just a quick fix for weight loss!" Comment at Amazon.com


You: on a diet by Michael Roizen and Mehmet Oz
"It is VERY informative, and covers things that I have never read in other books..I highly recommend this book to all waistfull and waistless people." Comment at Amazon.com

The Calorie King Calorie, Fat & Carbohydrate counter by Allan Borushek
It is so very easy to use and I have yet to look up some food, packaged or natural, that was not listed there, along with calories, fat and carbos.

The best life diet daily journal--goes with first title above

South Beach Diet by Arthur Agatston
"The good news: if you follow this diet you will lose weight! I lost 7 lbs in 3 weeks even with an occasional deviation. The bad news: sticking to the diet will not be easy." Comment at Amazon.com
