The Born Loser by Art and Chip Sansom for April 14, 2019

He’s talking to me, apparently. He doesn’t need to be worried about his weight.

Problem is low fat food is often over loaded with sugar to make it taste good – and that increase in sugar triggers your body to hoard fat.

I saw some fat free Half and Half in the store. My first thought was “How do they make that?” but then I realized that I really didn’t want to know. You want fat free? Eat a carrot.

Much like for years we were all told to use margarine instead of butter because of the amount of fat in butter. Now it turns out that butter is actually healthier. Just as long as you don’t pile it on where either one is bad. In a similar line eating sugar does not cause diabetes. Being overweight can lead to type 2 for many people and if they could lose weight and change their diet it may be “cured”. It is just that the pancreas can make only so much insulin for many people and too much body and food that turns into sugar overworks it. As others have pointed out all this reduced fat foods usually have the reverse effect on the body for various reasons and result in weight gain and a reduction in health.

I dunno. He looks pretty drawn to me.

I resemble that remark!

What a fathead.

That should tell u reduced fat does not work and is not good for u

Try the Ketogenic diet Brutus. Fat is good – and so is bacon!

And Wifey. Don’t forget Wifey…

Ummm. Who is he talking to?

Where does all that fat go?

Everything in moderation and you don’t have to worry about it.

My Wife and I have worked in several restaurants and we were always amazed at the customers who would order a ‘DIET SODA’ then a Big Bacon Cheese Burger with Large Fries or such,or something very fattening and a desert on a menu ! “And here’s your sign!”
