Bob, we're in agreement. You and I have been at this for a long time. You are more successful than I. One of the reasons I think this is because I was always looking for a short cut. Some way that I could eat ice cream, I suppose. Ice cream is my danger food.

There's almost no dietary regime I haven't tried along the way, but the only WOE for me which isn't painful has been LCHF.

That doesn't mean I don't think every day that suddenly it will turn on me. That the accumulated dietary fat will make me ill. This is the power all those lies bring to the table. The power to make us doubt that what has kept us healthy all these years will eventually kill us.
Still, the years pile up and I'm still healthy. Every year gives lie to their prefabricated "facts."
