Hey every body,
My thoughts about weight loss have been informed for a few years by the work of Ancel Keys in the Minnessota Starvation Experiments during WWII. This post has a great summary of what went on in the experiment. I recognize some of my own prior behaviors in here, though I have yet to successfully put the information to practice in a way that has me losing weight.
I'd love to have people read this post and see what rings true or doesn't. :bigsmile:
