How The Government Has Caused America’s Obesity Problem: The theory is that the grains and bread are carbohydrates that is converted into sugar, keeps you hungry and saps your of energy. Your cells thirst for protein and fats. If true, this would be yet another example of the government using science incorrectly. Science is never settled. Someone please tell Al Gore.

I don’t want the government telling me what to eat. It’s like fat nurses telling me how to be healthy. When you blowhards can play competitive a sport at an age approaching 50 and burning over a 1000 calories in the process, then you can tell me your opinion on health. Otherwise, stop wasting my money acting as some authority on health.

As a side note: I’m on a diet that has been going great. I lost 15 pounds (from September until Christmas) and I did it by simply reducing my calorie intake. During that time, carbohydrates have ranged from 30% to 55% of my diet. My speed and endurance has improved dramatically.

I have been using an app on my phone and on my computer called LoseIt to track my calories, weight and nutrition. I was so successful, that my wife started using it and she is halfway to her goal after a month.
