[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I'm sorry but do you people really not consider your weight when making food choices? [/quote] yes, really. i haven't worried about my weight since i was a particularly vain 15-year-old. I pay attention to what I eat so that I minimize processed sugars, etc, because those are unhealthy, not because they are "fattening." The evidence leans heavily in favor of weight issues being [i]correlated[/i] with unhealthy outcomes, not causative. Because lots of things that are unhealthy are also fattening. You know what else are fattening? My genes from my father's family. However, I'm smack dab in the middle of the normal BMI range, which I know only because I get weighed at the dr's office 1/year. That's what comes of learning about healthy eating and home cooking, not from worrying about how fat I'll look in my skinny jeans.[/quote]
