On the subject of weight loss. Though I never had to really diet except after a baby. I only eat when I am hungry. I believe that your body knows best. I don't know who came up with the 3 big meal a day thing but I think it is crap.

My theory as far as eating and stuff goes is as follows:

We are animals- whether we like it or not. We do a very good job when caring for pets etc. to feed them their natural diet. I think our culture has lost touch with our natural diet. I find it funny when they state on the news or articulate in the medical journals that a certain food is surprisingly very good for you- like tomatoes, pistacios, or bright colored vegetables. I feel that it is pretty basic, if it looks good- for example, if you saw it in the wild would you eat it?

The human diet should be what we would naturally find vibrant, fragrant, foragable and edible. Nuts, berries, fruits, above ground vegetables etc. You can't go wrong with those things. Flour- though I love french bread, is not a substance that our bipedal ancestors would have consumed. I think that keeping these things in mind when eating will maintain your health. That is just my little theory.

And I stay active- I'm kinda hyper anyway.
