Why Are We So Fat?
One question, many answers… and no solution in sight.
Michael Karolchyk Needs to STFU
I cannot believe that this idiot is opposing the appointment of Dr. Regina Benjamin as Surgeon General… because she’s overweight. While I’m no fan of Neil Cavuto (or Fox News), it’s to his credit that he’s having none of it. The only mystery is why Fox even gave this creep airtime to rant. For the record, THIS is Michael Karolchyk. “Can…can I just smash her right now?” “No,...

If you’ve ever seen the movie “Dodgeball”, then you know who White Goodman is. Played by comedian Ben Stiller, the over-the-top fitness nazi and owner of “Globo Gym” is a short man with an oversized ego. As he quips in the TV commercial that opens the movie: “Here at Globo Gym we’re better than you… and we know it.” Needless to state, White Goodman is always looking out for...
Who’s Telling The Truth? The Explosion Of Supplement “Review” Sites On The Net

Seems I’ve really irked a few folks by pointing out that ALL the documented evidence shows that HCG does not provide any benefit over that provided by a placebo. While...
Wendy’s 1, McDonald’s… 0!
About a month or so back, I reported on my experience with a McDonald’s grilled chicken salad. It was truly the most pathetic salad I have ever encountered and still remains so. I was most disappointed at the effort Mickey-Dees was making in providing real alternatives to the usual high-calorie, high fat offerings. The salad was, plain and simple, a joke. At the time, I remembered Wendy’s competitive offerings in a much...
