    Source = the daily mail.

    For those who don't know the paper think of it as a hard copy version of yahoo articles mixed in with a good dose of xenophobia.

    They forgot something in their list: dust.

    Anybody? No? Dust.
    I'm confused as to why people feel the need to copy/pasta stuff from google.
    Freudian slip there? :laugh:

    Internet slang

    I did not google "diet" and post the first three results, nor did I post it as "fact". If anyone had bothered to follow up the link in my first post, they would have seen for themselves the article which I copied and pasted from today's edition of the Mail on Line, a UK paper. And yes, I agree absolutely with posters' low opinion of that paper. I did not say I agreed with what is written. Instead, it is posted for interest's sake - and, yes, to stir controversy. Isn't that what a discussion forum is for?

    Google makes pasta now! Do they deliver? :flowerforyou:

    I foresee pasta in your near future, or maybe just a typo .:tongue:

    Fact Thin people eat breakfast; fat people don’t‘

    As somebody who lives in Asia, I know many thin people who don't eat anything at all. All day. Every day.

    FTW

    1 SKIPPING BREAKFAST


    Myth Not having breakfast encourages your body to burn fat


    Fact Thin people eat breakfast; fat people don’t‘


    Missing breakfast leads to overeating later in the day as blood sugar drops mid-morning, making you more compulsive around food and less likely to resist that double mocha and danish,’ says Dr Marilyn Glenville, author of Fat Around The Middle.


    ‘Plus, you are more likely to binge at night as your body plays catch-up on missed calories, making you more likely to store the calories as fat.’


    Researchers at Imperial College London recently used MRI brain scans to study the effects of skipping breakfast.


    They found the reward centres in the brains of breakfast-skippers lit up when they saw higher-calorie foods such as pizza, cake and chocolate, making them less likely to resist junk food than those who opted for an early morning meal.


    What you should do Research at Pennington Biomedical Research Centre in the US found that those who started their day with two boiled eggs felt less hungry and ate less come lunchtime.


    Any form of protein in the morning – plain yoghurt and berries, mackerel or smoked salmon, an omelette or raw muesli with nuts – makes for a breakfast of (thin) kings.


    ‘If you can’t face breakfast, eating a handful of walnuts or almonds an hour after waking will be enough to stop you bingeing later,’ says Dr John Briffa, author of Escape the Diet Trap.


    For the other five read the article on:

    I skip breakfast. . .I weigh 110lbs 12-15% bf. Yeah no, you're flat wrong.
