Science in the Public Interest 10 worst/best list

2000 calories isn't my entire days worth of calories...

It's way more than mine.

It all depends...

oh mama wally it is a shock , a real shock , those food products could be called the highway to diabetes.

Food causes diabetes?

OP, I could pick three to four items from that list and eat it in a day while still maintaining a deficit. Umad?

I mad, bro.

Processed foods spike the insulin levels and that sets off the vidious cycle of insulin desentivity and the bodies willingness to store fat.

[Referring to one study he conducted, some insulin resistant participants put on 85% carbs, others put on 17% carbs.] The only thing that affected their weight was how many calories they ate. There's not one shred of evidence that insulin resistance causes obesity. Insulin resistance means that insulin isn't acting correctly. [...] If anything, you would lose weight.

Who is your source?

Yeah i went to Olive Garden and i got the grilled steak and veggies, thought that was going to be low sodium and low calories. no ! so i made 3 meals out of it,, in order not to go over.. oh well. i enjoyed it though. I shudder at what i COULD have gotten, sheesh which would have been worse.

I now try to find restaurants that wont be so bad but are enjoyable, even my fave taco place, i just budget my macros and calories, so far so good. but still i am losing weight at 2 pounds a week.

For ice cream, i got the Edys slow churned, tastes full fat, but low calorie, excelent.

so you can find stuff if you just look.

oh yeah by the way, I used to eat those pot pies a lot, a few times a week, no wonder i got fat. but they were goood good goodie good good!!! rich and creamy !!! so perfect of a food. yeah i would never eat a half a pie sheesh.
