I Am On a Diet

Despite the last decades of propaganda against saturated fats, they have now been proven to be harmless (20, 21). When the anti-fat message first came out, food manufacturers started producing “healthy” products that were low-fat or fat-free. The only problem is that foods that have had the fat removed taste like crap.

The food manufacturers then loaded their products with chemicals, artificial sweeteners and massive amounts of sugar. What they basically did was remove the good stuff (fat) and replace it with bad stuff (sugar).

This is how they managed to turn perfectly healthy foods like yogurt into very harmful products filled with unhealthy ingredients.

Bottom Line: Avoid everything labelled “low-fat” or “fat-free.” These are highly processed products loaded with sugar and other harmful substances

the cheese I put on it is one slice. I don't like LOAD it up lol. but the soda is kinda my cheat day thing. I used to drink soda daily but 1 can a week should not bee too bad right? and the candy is usually only around 12 grams of sugar a day. i try to avoid fatty foods like pizza and eat salty foods such as pretzels in moderation. as I said I work out frequently and during the summer will be doing martial arts and yoga. So far I have lost 6 pounds (WHICH IS GREAT) and I only started about 3 weeks ago. I am on a med tho called prednisone that causes muscle rot and weight gain so I am awaiting that to be removed but until than I feel this should suit me for now.

uh,... doesn't cheese and soda gives more fat? and candy is not a good option. Add more veggies and fruits into your diet. do exercise. and you will loose more weight in a healthy

i was shocked i even lost those 6 lbs. i am hoping i am freed of it early june tho. last cath looked great :D

Prednisone is bad. You have an uphill battle until its removed. Good luck
