Sitting in the spa, letting the fish eat your dead skin when the mutated fish from upstream near the chemical plant come and eat you for real.
That said, I’d give it a shot.
Let the fish eat you. New Asian spas where fish eat the dead skin cells off your body.
I’m fairly certain we are devolving (de-evolving? See it’s already happening to me!) as a society. That thing a few weeks/months back I posted about the human race splitting has to be true. As I’m pretty sure I mentioned in that post, the movie Idiocracy (a failed attempt on a good idea) seems prescient.
Anyways, the latest clue that we are just setting up our own doom, I give you the Double Deep Meat Lover’s pizza from Pizza Hut. A single slice will log you 580 calories! But hey, maybe someone can just eat three slices a day and lose some weight (though not as much as you might thing, and definitely they won’t be healthy) since they’d only be consuming 1740 calories a day. Of course, 90% of Americans (I just made that stat up) would probably put down 3 slices a sitting so…
Ketchup with everything helps fight heart disease.
I wonder if the UK has different ketchups. I don’t know how much 30g of ketchup (what the subjects consumed daily), but I know ketchup is a ready source of sugar in a diet.
This woman decided to go for the size 0 “ideal” size for a documentary about what it takes to get there. She tried it over 6 weeks. She basically fell into some eating disorders and crazy thinking about eating and weight loss. How quickly she fell into the thought patterns of eating disorders and such.
I’m all for women being comfortable with their bodies (limiting this discussion to women, because it was women discussed in the article), but for fat to be accepted as normal? Nope. I’m not down with that. Should women being face a deluge of unrealistic images of “perfect” bodied women? No. Should the be pressured to conform to that unattainable (for the most part) ideal? No. Should they be made to feel shameful about their bodies? No. Not in a bad sense. But should there be societal pressure for them to lose weight for HEALTH reasons? I think so. Maybe this makes me an asshole, but to just let fat be normal/okay, I don’t know about that. But this is definitely a bi-nodal thing. More and more obsession with celebrity and impossibly skinny people. But also an ever increasing focus and emphasis on health. Here’s to hoping health wins out.
This goes too far.
People now want a slimmed down Santa.
Umm, I don’t see any kids growing up saying “I want to grow up and be fat like Santa”. In fact, while I agree healthy habits need to be fostered early in life, how does having a skinny Santa change that? I think this is ludicrous. It’s just another way to find something else to blame for what is fundamentally a (in the case of a child) parental problem. Yes it costs more (not really) and takes more time to prepare healthy snacks and meals than to toss your kid a Happy Meal, but its the parents’ responsibility to their children to do so.
Wow. Everyone thinks it was in the 80s. As one of the researchers said:
“It is somehow chilling to know it was probably circulating for so long under our noses,” Worobey said
Seriously.
Here’s the Girl Scout cookies in order of healthiest to least.
Cafe Cookies (five er serving) contain little saturated fat.
Trefolis have 150 calories per serving (five cookies).
Little Brownies (four per serving) are sugar-free.
Thin Mints (four per serving) have the same amount of sugar and fat as two-cookie serving of Samoas.
Do-Si-Dos (two per serving) are low in saturated fat.
Tagalongs (two per serving) are high in fat, but it’s mostly the good, unsaturated kind.
All Abouts (two per serving) are also low in saturated fat.
Thanks-A-Lot (two per serving) have the same number of calories as twice as many Thin Mints.
Lemonades (two per serving) have four grams of saturated fat.
Samoas (two per serving) have high amounts of fat and sugar.
Via Real Simple via That’s Fit.
Thin Mints and Tagalogs are my cookies of choice. Not too bad on this scale. I can do the Samoas to a degree, but not too much. Not because they are apparently unhealthy, but more because I’m not a coconut guy.
In case you forgot what’s what in the world of Girl Scout cookies, here’s a handy dandy guide.
Men’s Health 20 Worst Foods In America.
This isn’t on the list since it’s homemade, but this would have to be tops on the list right?
But it all tastes so good. Yes makes you nauseated after you eat it, but still….
I am listening to smodcast and they are talking about this Wired article and I had to find and link to it: Americans are so fat they are bottoming out the boats at “It’s a Small World” ride at Disney.
