And Not Gain Weight

It's after we get out that we have problems with weight gain or obesity. Here is a tip from a former marine who gained too much weight after leaving the Marine Corps.

You don't have to dedicate yourself to any diet plan or low-carb regimen to lose weight. Just substitute what you might eat in carbs with protein, bacon vs donuts, cheese vs cereal, or a sandwich with mayo without the bread.  Doing this will have much less impact on insulin levels, where upswings cause weight gain.

There is no secret to losing weight, only hard facts. If you can stay away from sugar and processed foods you can beat the big O. Obesity.

He would rub his hands together in anticipation, open his mouth as wide as he could, and take these monster bites, rolling his eyes and moaning with pleasure. He didn't restrict his great white bites to just sandwiches either, just about anything he consumed was done in a manner that suggested it might be his last meal.

Of course, when my mouth could handle it I too started eating like my Dad, I didn't just pick up this eating style during my stint in the Marine Corps, although I ate fast because I either had to or was in a hurry to get somewhere. The marines will tell you "eat all you want, but eat all you take". Read the rest of this entry »
