No diabetes in my side of the family, and not obese either. But I had to be very watchful of the stuff you buy around these places. It looks like you can't buy anything that doesn't have fructose corn syrup these days.

You asked what LDL was, that's why I posted all that. You should keep an eye on it if you have a family history.Quote:

Just read the label. I switched from regular coke (syrup) to coke zero (aspartame) and dropped a few pounds just like that. diet coke has syrup too :lol
I have a family history but it seems like I'm pretty immune to high cholesterol (prolly not the beetus tho). When I was at my FATTEST and weighed 285 with like 2 of my meals every day regularly involving cheese and/or red meat, my total cholesterol was only at 165.Quote:

How was it strange? He answered it. How is his explanation ok but his initial reaction isn't. It's not like he backpeddled. Had "think progress" used the whole answer, this wouldn't have been a news "item". Good job, Joe. Yes, the tea party want sick people to die. Yay for the "D".Quote:

There are billions spent on health care that have nothing to do with the patient's eating habits.Quote:

Carbos are cheap, veggies and lean meat expensive...why do you hate the poor? What did they do to you?Quote:

New Jersey. And you have to pay a premium for "Jersey Fresh" produce. In other words, tomatoes from Canada are cheaper than locally grown.Quote:

Another proud event for the Tea Baggers. At least this one didn't involved 2,000 fat people on Rascal Scooters.
Tbh food becoming so expensive IMO is largely because of so many fatasses that consume like $60 worth of food every day.
If you're that poor ur getting food stamps. At least the poor people that I know do. What they do with the food stamps is another story.
