Not saying you guys are fat, but read the book "Wheat Belly". Great information and good food for thought!

Carbs, sugars, and salts are not good for the afternoon crunch. I find homemade soups are best; boil the remains of that chicken, roast beef, roast pork, and watch the salt addition. Veggies, barley, pasta (made from Durham wheat which is better than the GMO stuff) will add body to the soup. Lots of greens, fruit, and of course protein for other lunch portions.

The Healthy Choice soups have about 16% of your daily salt in-take/cup. If you have two cups for lunch that is nearly 1/3 of your daily sodium in-take.

It is a difficult choice and one must weight the balances. Also, a higher metabolism rate is a blessing. This will be an interesting thread. Great topic nast70...:d

WHO you callin fat WILLIS? lol

Genetically Modified Organism....like drought tolerant corn...that has fed and saved the lives of millions. Nothing wrong with GMO....I'm on THAT side of the issue. Fernie is on the other side....LOL.

Genetically modified food controversies - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

i hear ya dave, but that friggin fernie guy is 70 Plus yrs old, looks like 50. he just makes me so friggin mad. lol.

i think i will side with him on this one, but i do like the beer thing.

Yes, I got caught with misspelling, hehehehehe.........DaveB is on the ball.

It isn't that I am on the other side but some of what is written makes sense to me. Particularly, the changes in some of the genes. When I read the book, and the Dr. Davies mentioned that the GMO wheat is what is causing a lot of the obesity, I thought about other things that eat wheat. Geese eat wheat and have since it was available to them (early 1900's) and you don't see any obese geese around these days from the GMO wheat!

you need to stay after class and practice your spelling, lol

That is an interesting statement. I did not know that. Referring to the book and the information, what have found, getting back to the original topic, is that by cutting out the "wheat flour" in my diet, I have lost weight and have more energy. I don't have those sluggish times like I used to.

agreed but that stuff is like my cocaine... get all sorts of graving when i get off it... havent been able to stay of it more then a few weeks at a time

Getting a little off topic, but on topic..... I can see where your coming from, with the "wheat flour" My dog TJ, has been on "gluten free" Since I got him, and the Vets still can't believe how healthy he is!!! Back on topic..... I have been cutting out "wheat flour" for myself, and finding that I'm not overly pushing myself. To get past that 2pm snooze time. It is a hard adjustment to make, but I already feel better.

My friggin' favorite snack was licorice. Number one ingredient was wheat flower. I am not gluten free just kind of cutting out the wheat flour (breads, coatings, pizza, cakes, muffins, donuts, etc..) There are some crackers that do not have wheat flour, things with oats/barley are fine. So sammiches are mostly out (wraps can be a substitute). Bacon and eggs are good but without toast and jam. That is the hardest part!

nice juicy apple

You sound a lot like me, know what you should do and the benefits but it's so easy to get busy and then make an excuse to take the quick and easy route lol. Leftovers are my favourite lunch or I like to get a bunch of stuff for fresh sandwiches (bunwiches, screw bread) and make a fresh toasted sammich at work. The bigger struggle is to find something delicious and nutritious for a mid afternoon snack to combat the 3pm doldrums.
