"If you're overweight and exercising and the pounds won't drop off,
why not add a fish oil supplement? It might work wonders on your
cardiovascular risk factors, according to a new report in the American
Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Australian researchers found that
combining regular aerobic exercise with consuming omega-3 fatty acids
(from fish or fish oil supplements) may be more effective than either
measure alone in reducing body fat and improving cardiovascular
health."

How come the Australians are putting articles into an American
Journal. why don't they put them in their own d*** journal?

That's ridiculous. Consume less, and the pounds MUST come off. Nobody
doubts that.

Just imagine - being overweight AND exercising. That must be a real effort!
And so unnecessary. Simply stop eating too much, and the pounds will come
off. Disciplined food consumption MUST be less effort than exercising while
overweight.

How weak must a person be to see cake in front of him or her, and be unable
to refrain from eating it? Yet this person who is unable to control his
gluttony can make himself exercise while overweight?

Someone explain this to me?

Sure - if your body's physiology is no more complicated than
that
of a paper bag.

effort!

It happens to many people. Particularly people who dieted to
extremes in their youth. I can think of several fat certified
exercise
instructors who eat quite healthily , exercise for many hours a week
and are still fat.


This is plain silly, because people get hungry. The more
distant
they are from their natural weight, the hungrier they get. It's like
sleep -
it's as stupid to think that everyone needs the same amount of sleep
to
feel their best, or that everyone (of a given age/height/gender) needs
exactly the same amount of food to feel their best.

People who are extremely hungry will eat anything,
and it doesn't have to be cake. I assume you are lucky
enough to live in an environment where you never felt
extremely hungry, and so you scoff at those who do.

Gluttony has about as much to do with this as
sloth has to do with being exhausted and sleeping a
lot.
In the eating disorders group (ed people correct
me if I'm wrong here) you'll find bulimic people who
exercise like crazy. The progression is: starve as much
as possible/eat everything that's remotely edible/feel
overwhelming guilt at one's "weakness"/throw up,
exercise and starve again to atone for the sin of ingesting calories.


If you insist on seeing the whole matter in
a simplistic way, I will never be able to explain
it to you.

Feel free to delete any newsgroup for whom this is
irrelevant.

What kind of bullshit hogspeak is that?


What's complicated about it and what is there to explain? You're fat
because you eat too much unhealthy food and flat refuse to diet or exercise.

Too bad it isn't "hogspeak", if it were, you might
have a chance of understanding it.


exercise.

Keep telling yourself that. It might give you a
glorious but elusive feeling of superiority.

"That concept of calories in, calories out isn't quite making the consumer
radar screen,"

And Robin provides another shining example.

I think what is at issue for him is what you obviously keep telling
yourself.
