Eat Like a Brazilian to Slim Down ....
or eat like a crocodilian to look like my 422 lb. wife.
PART ONE: Stories like this seem to be trying to make other country's culture to be better or more healthy than us as Americans. I just want remind everyone, this is America. We are free. And with that freedom we can eat any way we choose. We can go shopping and prepare a meal from any culture or cuisine.
PART TWO: So I love to hear great recipes from other country's. I love the diversity found in American living and cultural habits. Surely we don't want to change our lifestyle just because someone in a different county can make a lunch. Big deal. I can make a healthy lunch too without having to go out of the country to find it. Seems as if the writer is trying to say American's need to turn to other country's to learn how to live healthy. I have to disagree with the ways in witch this comes across.
PART THREE: I would guess this writer is trying to be stylish and main stream by writing on something that is in line with the political left. And that my friends has nothing to do with how we eat. It is just her trying to look cool to the world reading her article. But in actuality she looks really stupid. (no offense). But we as Americans can exercise not only our body's but we can exercise our free will to eat however we want.
everything that is bad for is good for you later according to all these studies. I have found out with a battle of weight all my life, eat what you want in portions with exercise. 3 days a week at least an hour strenght training with weights and eliptical rider for cardio it takes fat off at a rate that you wont put it back on. There are usually emotional problems and lack of direction along with food being at your finger tips and sometimes medical problems that add weight. Crash diets dont work and im tired of hearing how the europeans are better than we are, other countries have nothing on us and if you believe that you need to go live there and get out.
I think AndyS nailed it...lol. I never thought of analyzing stories like that. Wow the obvious intentions so easily overlooked. Great thinking guy.
The hookers in the trailer next to mine are very slim . . . even though they always have their mouths full.
guess what i'm all for do'n it b/c i have gain alot of weight since i quit smoke'n 14months ago i hate it...!!!! so i'm jusy being honest with myself i need to buckle down.but it seems harder since i've got'n older no excuses..!!!!
It seems the whole point is the (stupid) use of all the freedom Americans achieved -- it doesn't mean you CAN eat anything you want, you SHOULD do it! Simple! It's a thing Americans in general (which means that not everybody) didn't get: the capacity of having many options doesn't mean you HAVE TO try it all. Who said the world is coming to an end? Taste it, don't swallow it. Feel it, don't fill your guts with a soy+corn burger patty. Y'all have to learn to tolerate, to enjoy more of life. Guys, CHILL OUT!
this article promoted fresh food, bbq meat, salad, and hearty servings. Denoted soda, sugers, packaged/frozen meals; there is no leftist agenda or propaganda.
Unless the fat people play in the NFL, no more . the hospitals can help sicker patients.
..... this is a mindless article. People all over the world have this information.... they just choose not to use it. I am sure Brazilians follow this way of eating .....and yes ... Brazilian women are Hot! ..... until they want to come here ...... then they eat at mcdonalds just like all the rest ......
There are OBESE people in all parts of the world. Check out this article regarding how the country of Brazil installed special seats in their subway train for obese people: http://www.myfoxeugene.com/dpp/news/offbeat/dpgo _Brazil_Subway_Obese_Seats_fc_20090823_3121963
not to be rude but one of the reasons why ppl. in other parts of the world are skinny is also because they can't afford to buy a lot of food and junk food becomes a luxury as well as protein which is often left for special occasions.
So, actually this is how Brazilians ate in the hotel and restaurants this doctor visited. Meaning they were probably foreigners or well-off Brazillians. Meaning they likely are more highly educated which a study has already proven the link between education level and obesity. So basically this doctor is either a moron or didn't know that this has been studied in depth. Most likely she was trying to fill a deadline for Yahoo and pull this article out of her ...
In regards to what Andys said, why does everything have to be about "the left". These people are eating natural foods hte way god intended it not prepackaged chemically processed garbage that is causing sickness and eventually killing people in America and driving up the cost of health care trying to keep them alive.
TO VAL PART ONE:In regards to val. The left uses consumer trends and attaches themselves to it in an attempt to gain popularity. You are correct though, I used the left in this issue because the writer was using a dictator/tyrannical country as a example and trying to make it look appealing to Americans. Only the political left has been doing this. They have to because they are trying to turn America into a country similar, so It has to look good to the buyer.
TO VAL PART 2:Believe me the Political right isn't any better. Both party's are globalist's witch= selling our sovereignty. We as Americans wont give up our freedom unless we are sold on something better. But in reality there is nothing better than freedom. Nothing. I would rather be forced to eat a bacon double quarter pound-er than loose my freedom. But here now in America we are free and can eat however we want. It just isn't being sold that way, hence the article. ;)
Who cares!!! My boyfriend also agrees with me. He is 10 years older than me, lol. We met online at age-gap club --- AgelessOnly.COM ---. It's fabulous! Maybe you wanna check out or tell your friends.
