[quote=Anonymous]It's definitely the food. We eat so unconsciously. If you ever look at the calorie count of restaurant meals - including Starbucks - it would really blow your mind. Also, as previous posters noted, the way food is processed has changed dramatically. One more thing: I run in a crowd that shops at Whole Foods, farmer's markets, the whole nine. What separates the chubs from the non chubs (and the chubs exercise way more than I do) is portion sizes, SUGAR and FLOUR. I have this one friend who makes her children's meals from scratch every day, but there's a lot of baking going on there. I don't even think she realizes how much she bakes (It's that food-love connection). I am really cognizant of how certain foods metabolize. Items, from scratch or not, made with sugar and flour are not metabolized in the same way as an apple or carrot or even red meat. Please limit these items and do not drink your calories if you want to keep those pounds from sneaking onto your behind. Exercising hard may work for some once the extra weight is gone. First, clean up your food game.[/quote]
