I came upon this video (8m 44s) of a man claiming weight loss from eating junk food - seven pounds in one week. And you’ve probably heard of the Adkins diet where you could chew on bacon fat all day and consider yourself a success.

Then there’s my controversial, one step weight loss program: Cut Off Your Arm. Did you know that just one of your arms weighs from eight to fourteen pounds? That’s an 8-14 pound instant weight loss with only minor side effects (provided you start the program at or very near an emergency room).

Hmmm… Now that I think of it, that’s probably the one with the least long term negative impact on your health. With that in mind, which would you choose?

OK, how about another option? Eat foods which humans thrive on and your weight will take care of itself.

At least 70% of your food should be raw vegetation - fruits and vegetables. 50% is the absolute minimum. No, we won’t instantly die from burgers and fries, but we struggle along in a state of constant illness. Our bodies need unprocessed foods. Even non-vegetarians will agree that raw meat seems unappealing (and unhealthy, and dangerous) so get your meals to average out to a minimum of fifty percent raw, whole, fresh fruits, greens, and other plant foods.

Here’s another video for you (1m 20s). This one is from Storm Telifero on eating junk food (mild language). An impassionate father speaks out.

[the "cut off your arm" program was a joke. if you thought I was serious - seek help]
