Keith,  I met someone not too long ago that knew you from your charity work with Muscular Dystrophy and the Special Olympics.  He had nothing but kind words to say about you and considered you to have a "heart of gold".  After hearing from him how much you at one time cared for the less fortunate, (he said you were very emotional when it came to seeing disadvantaged children) I refuse to say anything negative about you.  

I personally feel that it will do you no good  for me or anyone to continually dump insults on you or in a reciprocating fashion.  Despite your current circumstances, I am sure the Keith with the "heart of gold" is in there somewhere and I do not want to do anything that would inhibit that side from showing.

I am truly sorry if I offended you in the past (I also wasn`t aware of other things that I was told) and I can promise you that you won`t hear a cross word from me.

I hope you get better overall and I do not want to see you go down a bitter route.  According to your friend, that is not you and I don`t think it is either.

This is a very impressive post and shows good character. I may disagree vehemently with TA in regard to politics and very superficially in regard to dieting but by this one post my opinion of TA as a person has risen tremendously. We often get a skewed perspective on someone when we just know him/her from a message a board. Especially a board such as this which sometimes brings out the worse in a  person. Give credit where credit is due regardless of your personal feelings.

You are an enigmatic person, my friend, but I just saw a glimpse of a good heart. That matters. That matters a lot.

Junk Food Tax Could Improve Health
The Pricier Junk Food Is, the Less of It People Eat, Research Suggests


Taxing junk food may help reduce obesity and improve health, researchers have found.


California lawmakers propose a tax on sugary drinks to fight obesity.
Patients got significantly less of their calories from soda or pizza when there was a 10 percent increase in the price of either, Penny Gordon-Larsen of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and colleagues reported in the March 8 issue of Archives of Internal Medicine.

"Policies aimed at altering the price of soda or ... pizza may be effective mechanisms to steer U.S. adults toward a more healthful diet and help reduce long-term weight gain or insulin levels over time," the researchers wrote.

Talk of a soda tax has sparked debate across the country, particularly in New York and Philadelphia, where such legislation is currently under consideration. However, not much research has been done to study how price changes would affect health outcomes.

So the researchers looked at data from 5,115 patients enrolled in the longitudinal Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) Study from 1985 to 2006.


During that time, the inflation-adjusted price of soda and pizza actually decreased, with the largest drop observed for soda, falling from $2.71 to $1.42 for a 2-liter bottle -- a 48 percent decline.

In their analyses, the researchers found that changes in the price of soda and pizza were associated with changes in the probability of consuming those foods, as well as in the amounts consumed.


A 10 percent increase in the price of soda was associated with a 7.12 percent decrease in calories consumed from it, while the same increase in the price of pizza led to an 11.5 percent drop.

Price was also significantly associated with total caloric intake and body weight. A $1.00 increase in soda prices, for example, was tied to a mean of 124 fewer total daily calories, which amounted to an average weight loss of 2.34 pounds.

The researchers noted that similar trends were seen for pizza, adding that a $1.00 increase in the price of both soda and pizza together was associated with even greater changes in total energy intake, body weight, and insulin resistance.

No your not. But let me asks you an honest question: What side of the political spectrum does this come from? The Left or the Right? What side wants bigger government and more control over you personal life?

who said there was something wrong with mc donalds? its basically potatoes, meat, bread, oils, salt, sugar etc. etc.

I will answer this one for you honestly: both of them do. Republicans want to help the 1% above all. The democrats realize that the majority are retarded and if something is not done, then people will continue to do the things that lead to problems. I don't believe they care on way or the other, but they are into protecting people from themselves. This unfortunately creates man made evolution and litters the population with 'genetic junk'.

Republicans use the middle class against the liberals and point out the lower class as being unwilling to do what the middle class does, no exceptions.

However Obama made it to where the middle class payed less taxes since like the 1960's, and the upper class blunted the difference.

Both have their own agenda, both are untrustworthy, and both do things we want with a bigger political agenda in mind. Health care reform is great by itself, and it will work out. However it will be used to drum up support for everything else.

It is like the Republicans who voted that the government could not afford the health care bill even though it decreased the deficit, yet had a hard on to go into Iraq, since that benefits the oil companies without affecting our 'war on terror'.

I also believe 9/11 was an inside job. I do not trust the government in any shape or form, however I feel that, under a democrat, more people will be helped in our life times.

I know. It is amazing that people blame Mcdonald's for obesity. I do believe the new mandate to put calorie info on everything (Mcdonalds already does) will help people realize just how much they are eating.

The problem is with high food consumption out of a need for fulfillment or some sort of pleasure all day. I mean, I advocate going to Mcdonalds and eating anything you want, but eating 4500 calories and beyond like a lot of people do is the cause, not the ingredients or preparation.

It is rather easy to forget at times, due to the sometimes anesthetized environment of the internet, that there is actually a living, breathing person with feelings and emotions behind every keyboard.

We all have contributed to disparaging one another on Getbig (part of the appeal of the site) but there are also certain times to exhibit restraint. The trick is knowing how to do both and when.

QFT. And, as always, give my regards to the lovely Jezebelle.

Both sides which is why I consider myself a true Socialist (power and resources solely in the hands of THE PEOPLE, nowhere else) or a Libertarian Socialist or a Democratic Socialist.

Look,

This whole thing is a work in progress and does not have to be decided and formulated overnight.  At least that is the way I see it.  I like the idea of putting together a case study of some sort and I am willing to bet Scott Connelly may also be interested in doing so.

I really don`t care about proving myself to anyone, I`d rather focus on proving the different hypotheses evidence and Science. 

[Cleanest Natural]

I do not think there's a bullshitter bigger than you

[newmom]

I just dont see it TA..If I eat a hamburger and fries (not mickey d's though) for dinner and got on the scale the next day, easy 2lb increase

[devilsmile]

I have eaten two big mc's today  , fucking rules  !!! get all pumped, jug it down with sprite... mmhh mmh... ofcourse u have to drink some water so u won't get all dry and shit, then hit the gym and you have the best pumps!!

[newmom]

If your total calorie count does not increase from your usual diet then you shouldn't gain any weight. I've lost 11lbs now and I regularly eat 2bigmacs and a sprite zero at work (1000 calories), just watch what I eat the rest of the day.

um I will usually eat a cheat meal at lunch time but still. I eat like 1000-1300 calories a day to keep the weight off.

[newmom]

Holy shit thats so little  , don't you do a lot of cardio as well? Different for women?

yes I do cardio. Im only 127 lbs.  It seems like I eat constantly, which is what I do..Like every 3 hours, I just eat clean is all

[nukkaready]

I'm going to state this once, and then leave it for the Adam/Connelly debate.  

Connelly believes that you can take a pair of monozygotic twins and put them both on an identical training regimen and identical caloric consumption.  However, if one is getting his calories primarily from protein, and the other is getting his calories primarily from carbs, they will end up with differing body composition.  In spite of the fact that both twins are burning & consuming the same amount of calories, the twin that is consuming primarily protein will end up with more muscle and lower body fat.

That is the oversimplified position.  Like I said before, I'm not going to spend hours on here reading through Adonis cut & paste nonsense.  The best way to settle this is to get the two together and see it debated.

He believes... LOL... the only place where people believe is in church.

There you a go proof in the lab

[newmom]

My body does  not work like that xerxes but Im 5ft3. If I have a cheat day..usually next day 3 lb gain on the scale but its gone the following day. None the less I have to be careful what I eat..

[Whiskey]

You do realize Dr. Connelly has nothing to prove.  He has a couple decades of proof and mega success and worldwide exposure.  You on the other hand do not have one thing.  For him to even be in the same room with you is actually lowering his standards by alot.  You sure have alot of balls for someone who has nothing to bring to the fight but other peoples info and studies.  Honestly you are so laughable I don't even know how to say it.  You are even worse than your neighbor Goodrum

Bullshit keith, the man has accomplished plenty just look at his post count nearly 20,000 posts on Getbig.com

1 question How many posts does dr. connelly have here?

 

[Eyeball Chambers]

Can someone tell me what happened between page 4 and this post?  I go to bed for 8 hours, and you lunatics post 6 pages of shit I can't possibly keep up with... 

[Krankenstein]

Connelly Diet - 3,000 to 4,000 calories

1 Bucket of KFC - 1725 calories



So if my caloric intake is equal to 2 buckets of KFC Fried Chicken but my macro-nutrients are balanced...I'm still going to lose weight......


I'm sorry but I used to follow the 300-400 grams of protein a day and etc.  But now I know better.  In order for the body to burn fat, it has to be in a caloric deficiency and need the extra calories for fuel. 

Adonis is right.  Calories do count and while you can't just eat candy and sugar all day, you certainly can't fall for nutritional nonsense thats being circulated to sell more protein powder.

The irony is strong in this post.....
