@Homemaker l hope you see this, you can lose weight quite simply if you follow these rules carefully. There is 4.5 Litres in your Gallon, you must drink at least 2 Litres per day of water if not more, a coffee in the morning if you wish, nothing else only water. Water is your friend, eat your meals off a bread and butter plate, never go over the edge, and do not stack high, make the plate up as you would to a visitor, don’t be foolish your only hurting yourself. You can have 3 snacks a day, a handful of unsalted nuts, a yogurt, a piece of fruit. You must walk 5 kms, you have to work that out in miles, l have to bring my bloody calculator every time l come to the US, well you won’t convert to metric you lot. As l said you must walk 5 kms, that’s 5 kms there and 5 kms back. l promise you, if you do that for 1 year, you will lose at least 25 kilos, in a very healthy way, if my memory serves me correct, that’s somewhere up near 45lbs, you won’t know yourself, and you will thank an Australian Sous Chef, who took the time to tell you this, l wish you all the luck in the World and l know you will look fantastic. l bet you will look a right dish too. This film inspired Australia’s McDonalds to be the first in the World to change their menu, immediately after, with fresh, healthy and well balanced food added to their menu, salad, yogurts, orange juice, etc, etc. Also a new burger called McOz with less than 3 grams of fat, even we Chefs eat. This film did more good than bad around the World, good on ya Morgan Spurlock, thanks for helping Australian kids.
Kind Regards
A Sous Chef.

Also fathead, the documentary. Guy ate only 2000 calories of fast food a day, was obese when he started by technicality of body mass index only, and lost like 12 pounds in a month. He walked every night, and that’s it. The guy in this documentary would have had to have eaten at least 5000 calories a day to gain that much weight, which no normal person would do, even if they ate fast food every day.

Something to really think about. We eat mostly homemade meals-try to minimize processed ingredients. We don’t eat ‘fast food’ often. We wouldn’t even fall into the category of ‘heavy user’ but we occasionally indulge. I ate a carrot for lunch, thinking as I chewed. I talked to my kids about the food groups and why our bodies need them. Despite all this, I am overweight (not obese) I just love food! I eat more than I need at most meals-what’s up with that??

Ha ha! While in the US, Congress has just declared pizza a vegetable and FAUX Noise has made pepper spray a condiment. No wonder the world laughs at the USans.

Not that you would notice but, at the end of the movie, they mentioned how after the airing of the documentary, the Corporate Supreme Court made it illegal for citizens to sue these type of pigs
feed establishments for the ailments they cause. So much for your small government, eh? Yeah, sure, small government when it allows the corporations to run amok but when it comes to protecting the citizens against them, all hell breaks lose and the likes of you start to demand that we be screwed. But I suppose you don’t see anything wrong with that.

For those who missed that: this movie had been scientifically disproved several years ago (by Swedish scientists I think). They did the same things like in the movie with none of their subjects displaying any of the drastic effects. In other words: this is a funny movie but it’s not a documentary. It’s fiction.

I would make the argument that the value of liberty is what Americans prize the most. You are free to say what you like, you are free to profit of your successes, but you are also free to ruin your own life. It is an individualistic view of the world. At best, it places the responsibility of each individual’s prosperity on their own shoulders. At worst, it promotes a selfish society where the state of one’s fellow man is of no importance. This view of the world supposes one critical thing: That generally speaking, its citizens have the good sense and intelligence to do what is right for themselves and for their family. We know very well this is not the case. For example, countless people borrow and spend, because they are ‘free’ to, sums of money they can’t possibly pay back. Or, increasingly, people don’t eat foods that will nourish the bodies, choosing rather to over-consume foods that will make them obese and sick. As demonstrated time and time again, corporations have their own interests at heart and won’t bat an eye-lash at exploiting, to the point of ruin, the very consumers who have made them rich. In my view, it is the role of government to regulate business to prevent practices that are not good for society as a whole. Unfortunately, the opposite is true. Be it Republican or Democrat, there is no difference, they accomplish the same thing: the erosion of laws which protect its citizens in order to maximize the profits of big business (the reason for this current economic crisis!), the erosion of the social net (welfare, health care, old age pension). The result is the rapid disappearing of the middle class and the further widening of the gap between rich and poor. No, people certainly do not have the good sense to do what is good for them.

u r already controlled but barely recognise that you are. It doesnt matter if one is left, right, center, far left or far right. The laws that are being developed and put in place by owners and ceos of multinationals have no political affiliations other than use and discard.The laws benefit them and not society as a whole. Taxing a product that harms people to promote something good and at the same times discourages its use seems to be a win win situation. Although it might be a smarter idea to add taxes to those companys and ceo’s who produce the product in the first place.Targeting the user may help but getting the source may effect more change.
