I am always on the lookout for "diet" myth-busting comments in articles, and I ran across one today. I was reading Shape magazine (don't ask me why, because I always get annoyed by the nutrition advice -- I tend toward WAPF).
So, there is an interview with Jewel, who lost some weight a while back. She is married to rodeo cowboy Ty Murray (I don't know if he still competes).
So, she talks about her "healthy" diet which includes breakfast, lunch, and dinner, plus snacks. Then, the article says "you'd think Jewel's healthy habits would have rubbed off on Ty" but she says no, and that she finds it frustrating because he doesn't eat "healthy" but eats "like a college kid, skipping breakfast and having spicy, calorie-laden dishes like chiles rellenos for lunch, then a bowl of cereal for dinner." She says that someday he may have to watch what he eats, but for now "he's blessed with a high metabolism."
<<GRIN>> Sounds like a version of intermittent fasting to me. It never ceases to amaze me how entrenched the "healthy diet" mentality is, when the answer is right before our eyes. But people tend to consider proof of it a paradox, rather than the solution. Skipping meals is not only for the young and irresponsible. It's the right way to eat, and it may be why the young are often the slimmest segment of our population. I know both my young adult sons eat when they're hungry, and they are both slim, no matter WHAT they eat.
