Hello ,

I used s Powter Formula to lose weight about 4 years ago--and

still Have it firmly fixed in my head--HOWEVER! It is quite hard to

find foods -Other than Fresh Produice so Low in fat--Here anyway!.

also! afterv Years of living so Low fat--I gain weight really quickly

if i EAT it(fat)in foods Now!

My Friend--who is the asme weight as Me-and about to Join me in tae

bo-since,although she hasn't said-MUST Have ssn some results in me

after 3 weeks...:) well! she eats Fatty food ALL The time--Like Fries

with full fat Cheese on top-Sticcky Puds and Custard-Lots Of

Crisps/Chips..yet! I don't TOUCH Any..

Maybe-We should all Look at What our Insides May Look Like-and that is

the Truth of healthy eating..

Anyway! her Theory works-But ONLY If you are active-which i WAS,AND AM

AGAIN...SO! I might adopt it again----

she also Did another Book after this--with Menu's and more ifo

in---worth getting.

on a Last Note--what an inspiration she is!

Regards

I am having to laugh cause I was ready her book and she explained that

part about not eating fat and then accidently eating some. Well, luckly I

like bagels and beans, chicken and rice!! LOL Actually I am trying to stay

under 20% of fat. Now that I know that formula I am checking everything i

eat to make sure it at least doesn't go over 30% anyways. (funny enough a

few weeks ago I was reading a newsgroup and someone mentioned that fat

percent and I had no clue what the heck it was!) Tonight for dinner I had

two chicken burritos..the buritto was about 9% fat and the chicken was abour

4%. Everything on it was a veggie (onion, tomato and lettuce) and I put some

chili suace on it (no fat!) It was pretty good. Lucky for me I am a weird

eater too and I love the bagel with all the trimmings in the morning. (No

more egg yolk for me!) I have a neighbour who is trying to lose some weight

too and everything she eats I now critque..LOL Like sausage...Ahhh like 78%

fat...no wonder she isn't going to lose weight. I haven't had pop in ages

(even though I know there is no fat in pop) But also I know drink chocolate

skim milk. chocolate has no fat and either does the milk but it helps me get

my calories (but no I don't sit around and drink 20 glasses a day..just with

one meal) OK I thinkI am rambeling now!

If you see it--get it-it has great recipes and menus in it...

Also! after using this Formula and reading her cristism on the food

Good Luck!

apply that one to Almost everything in my life-Including ONE

Pre-pubscent and ONE ALREADY Pubescent child---

I KNOW You all know what I Mean! :)

I was wondering something about those fat free foods..what if it really says

0 grams of fat? Or Calories =45 and calories from fat =0 does that realy

mean they are fat free still? That confused me!! I was looking at some

foods though and thingking to myself...OH MY GOSH, I ATE THAT! ahhhh (I am

running and screaming now) No really, like Hard salami..ok it says 14 grams

of fat.. " oh cool " I think to myself " I can eat that cause I can have 60

grams of fat in a day. " (This was a week ago) Now I looked at the overall

and it is something like 78% fat!! Yipes! No more salami for me!

If I ever see the book " Food " I will snatch it up!!

Say something has 2 grams of fat in it and 100 calories. You would take 2 x 9=18 and then 18/ 100 = the percantage of fat in the food you are eating, this case the percentage would be 18%. That would fall under the fat percantage of 30%. Thoughts anyone? >>

For sedentary or lightly active people this makes some sense, but when you are moderately to very active fat fuels your body, protein fuels your body and carbs fuel your body. Some people are more susceptible to carb cravings than others and need to be careful not to let that get out of control. Some people should be careful of fats because of medical or genetic history. I never watch my fat intake, but don't eat alot of greasy or junky foods, either. I feel that non-nutritive or over processed foods should really be the things to cut back when trying to be fit. Fat has alot of calories packed in it, so limiting fat makes it easier to restrict calories and still feel satisfied, but we now know that the calorie theory is largely myth anyway. Know your body and make choices accordingly.

I was using this formula but only at the end of the day when I took my

total fat x 9 divided by total calories eaten that day. My mind ISN'T

working right now so I am sorry that I am showing my dizziness (it does

come out every once in awhile :) HA HA) but wouldn't this be the same?

for the first few says to see where you are and to get used to it. Mike is

REALLY good at math though, so I just have him do the formula for me! LOL
