    People flake out because they view excersize not as a permenant lifestyle change but a thing you do to "get back in shape." They were never in shape and are flawed in thier plan from the start. Excersize should be play. Humans need to play. Period.

    Get on a bike, play basketball, run. Find your sport or activity that is fun. Study it, learn, learn, learn. I have been an avid cyclist for three years and I'm still learning a lot about something that most people would assume is trivial. Same with running...there is a lot to learn.

    This is the rational viewpoint. No wonder it was modded down to shit. Microsoft is the leader in open source. There are others but they lag far behind. In a few years when someone says "Linux" people will think of Microsoft as the default integrator and facilitator. Sorry RedHat, you tried.

    Eating out is not a time saver. Do a study. When you lack the mental fortitude and sit around waiting for food to appear it can take a long time. If you plan and execute it happens quickly and you move on. I can prepare several meals in the time it takes to order and wait on pizza or some other oil ladden sugary trash.

    High fat diet can cause or help fat burning but it is not healthy...at all. Consumption of any fat or oil causes arterial hardening immediately and for some time afterward. Repeated exposure causes heart disease and early death. Sugar (refined cane, HFCS, raw, honey, and refined flour are all sugars) triggers an insulin spike and repeated exposure results in diabetes and a very slow and painful unfulfilling life until early death.

    The medeterranian whole food diet without gobbling down olive oil leads to a healthy cancer free life including a sharp mind and reversal of the above noted ailments.

    There is no fast food restaurant and no chain sit down restaurant that can provide you a healthy meal.

    Are the rolls and wraps and buns whole grain? Unprocessed? Wheat is not good enough...might as well be white. Whole wheat, whole grain only suffice. Is the food prepared with oil of any kind? Extra virgin is better but still unhealthy. Does the food contain any added sugar? Nearly every dressing or condiment is a big gulp of the worst mass of oxident, free radical generating insulin spike imaginable. Safe? No. Worse, it slowly ruins your life and ends up costing everyone tons of money just to save your life when the symptoms are overflowing from your body.

    This epidemic is the worst poisoning the world has ever seen and has the ability to crash our society. Hyperbole? Fact.
