    Diet, Exercise and Weight loss - help!

    I wanted my 16 year old who is obsessed with getting coke into his body to listen to some of the science behind last night's sugar debate between the Sweet Poison author and the dietitian. Here is the link http://mpegmedia.abc.net.au/local/nightlife/nightlife_m2069720.mp3

    Diet, Exercise and Weight loss - help!

    At 10.15 last night on 612 ABC local radio Tony Delroy had the author of Sweet Poison and a female dietitian on, head to head, and boy was it fun to listen to. I was picturing Tony holding the shrill sounding dietitian back from ripping the much more calm author's head off. They didn't agree...

    I should explain what I am eating. I don't think it is really extreme. For five days I am eating (typical day)... Brekky - poached or fried egg (no oil) with slice of ham and low fat cottage cheese. Lunch - home made lean beef/onion patties with a poached or no-fat fried egg and low fat...

    LOL!!! That is priceless. Thanks for giving me a belly laugh. Actually, if I try the Meaty Bites Diet, I could have a slightly less wobbly belly laugh.

    Thanks Winston. Once again, an answer packed full of information... thank you. But I have a few queries, if you don't mind. I think we average consumers (at least my youngest boy does) get brainwashed that exercise requires these types of drinks. Neither of these boys is overweight, but I...

    Hi Winston. Whilst we are on this subject, I wonder what your thoughts are on "sports" drinks, eg Gatorade and the like. I have an 18 year old (normal build, rather lean but not skinny) who trains for football (soccer) for 90 minutes twice a week plus the 90 minute game when the season kicks...
