Am I the only one. Everywhere I look I see, lower carbs, low fat, fat free, no caleries. Now they ever have the beer compaines on this carb counting, low calerie crap. Can anybody explain to me why we need all this stuff? Also why is it when I was growing up, you didn't see, fat free, low carbs, 0 caleries, and we didn't have anywhere near the amount of fat people. The one that sickened me today was, I was in wendy's and on the bottom of the board it said "counting carbs, order your sandwitch without the bun" I really question why in this crazy world would someone who is trying to lose weight go to Wendy's to eat, especailly a fatty, high calerie, drenched with mayo and grease burger. I think according to mc donald's latest statisics a ONE big mac has more fat, carbs, and caleries than the majority of people need to maintain their body, then add the fries, and a large drink, think about it, how much carbs could tossing to bun lose in comparism to all the fat and caleries you just ate? Actually the think about it, the only place I have seen low fat being used for advertisement purposes(or just about anywhere) when I was growing up was subway and this was way back in the mid eighties. On a side note, it seams that the all this low fat, carb food has far less taste than the "regular" food.
Anybody come to think that maybe if we did something besides sitting on our fat asses, playing video games, watching T.V while eating Mc donalds, then topping it off with a bowl of ice cream all day, we might not be so fat and then we won't need this low fat, carb, calerie crap. And does anybody corelate this rise in fast food with all these fat 10 yrs ods we have today. When I was growing up, Mc donads was treat(atleast in my house and the neighbors) and most kids were a normal weight not blimps, anybody see my point?
And by the way I weigh 180lbs with steel toe work boots one, I work 10-11 hours days in contruction, I eat a fairly large dinner, usaully 3-4 slices of pizza for lunch , I don't eat any of this "low" food and I maintain my weigh between 180 and 185 lbs. Am I the only one like this or am I some kind of weird alien?
