Something is missing!

I've just finished ordering four books via the internet: "Death by Food Pyramid" by Denise Minger, "Cholesterol Clarity" by Jimmy Moore and Eric Westman, "Deep Nutrition" by Catherine Shanahan and "Challenging Beliefs: Memoirs of a Career" by Tim Noakes. Waiting impatiently for these.

However, I'm really missing Gary Taubes. Alright, I'll admit it, I have a horrific crush on Gary and I can't seem to find him anywhere on the web recently. No blog articles, no references to him, no appearances, no news articles. Probably doing research through the new organization he's involved in. Sigh. Hopefully, something will turn up soon.

I've been watching some Tim Noakes lectures recently and can't get over how wonderful his appearances are. He's as giddy as a schoolboy sometimes which reflects on how great he's feeling with his dietary regimen. Here is one I just watched which is great.

Oh, and, something that I've noticed recently is that under comments or questions on blogs or on videos, people keep asking the same stupid questions about "Blood Type" diets. People, give it a rest already. There is nothing scientific about blood type diets. I'm blood type A positive. All of me is blood type A positive. Supposedly, I can eat carbs and happily be a vegetarian, NOT! I cannot tolerate carbs and my stint at vegetarianism (for 1 year) resulted in horrible health issues. Yes, I've been tested several times and I'm still type A positive. Nothing has changed and I still can't tolerate carbs and cannot be a happy vegetarian. The happiest I've ever been is on an all meat (and egg) diet.

  1. yeah, the BTD is based on a mistake.-- if I ate like i'm "supposed to" i'd be dead -- or want to be, at least! :-) I suspect that those who love that diet are actually on the higher-meat, lower-vegetable-protein version.

    1. Yeah Tess, I'll bet there are a lot of Type A's who are very miserable.
