This is great. I didn't lose 25 years. The last fifteen were rather horrible. But suddenly, and I mean over night, after trying everything, I find that I'm perky and alive. I thought my life was over. I still lived, but it was all just like being a passenger. There are a lot of americans eating off that pyramid chart who are dying.

There is so much confusion over carbs. I took a lot of time to get it straight. It's so simple it's pathetic. Just eat real vegetables. Anything with a higher glycemic load is for things like endurance, or high intensity. The guys in the bike tours drink Coke! Argh. I finally figured out why it was ok for them but not those sitting on a couch. One goes to muscles, the other goes to fat (with a huge insulin spike).
