If you still are holding on to the notion that you need to eat a "low fat" diet to lose weight,  you really need to watch this five part series by Tom Naughton whose movie, Fathead, may just convince how you really should be eating to lose weight and for your overall health.  If you have time watch the movie - it is about 100 minutes - I embedded it under the 5 part Big Fat Fiasco presentation.  Naughton does a great job in presenting the subject matter in a very entertaining way. You will learn the truth behind cholesterol, saturated fat, grains, sugar, the so-called "obesity epidemic".  You will also understand why you gained weight and why you have so much trouble losing it.  Forget all the conflicting nonsense you hear in the media - these videos are all you need.  Enjoy!
