Please Help: Ex-nurse, Herbalist, Fat and Confused! [Forum]

Please, read this in its entirety. I am not lacking knowledge by any means. I just think I am missing something and would love some advice to maybe jar my memory.

I am 41, 5'7 weigh 210 look like I'm only about 180. But, Im done with the body builder look, I want to lose weight and tone. I have tried everything. I think there is something wrong that I am not getting. I dont drink any soda, i drink water all day, cup of hot tea at bedtime(no sugar). I dont eat any bread,processed foods,candy and I actually dont like salt. I love spicy foods, take a multi vitamin every day. Do pilates 3 times a week, yoga twice a week. And walk the big doggies 3-5 times a week 3-5 miles every time. I am a very busy, active person. Only sleep maybe 6 hours a night and Im ok with that, hardly ever feel drained or tired. Do not drink any alcohol. Ride bicycle to grocery store and eat mainly fruits and vegetables and nuts. I do eat bison instead of hamburger. And I have a small stomache where I have to eat 4-5 small meals a day, large meals hurt me and will bloat me. I do take fiber daily too.

Not sure if Im forgeting something? Oh-Im sure I eat around 1200-1500 calories a day have kept a diary log-so now what?? I will lose 5 lbs, then gain 7 back? I have eaten this way for years-but it seems that Im actually gaining faster? I have to have something medically wrong? I have tested bloodsugar too just in case and Im pretty darn normal. Stay around 80-112. PLEASE SOMEONE-I beg anyone to show me the light. What am I doing wrong? Or what is wrong? I have had thyroid tested 6 times!! They just say normal levels?? I am so lost. Thank you!!

Two-Ton French Fries Record Attempt Fails

Another day, another food-related record breaking attempt. We've had the world's longest pizza, now how about two tons of French Fries to go with that?

Sadly, or fortunately, depending on how you look at it, the Grand Forks (in North Dakota) attempt at the "World's Largest French Fry Feed" failed.

Despite the rather appropriate name, Grand Forks failed to get enough people forking up fries, as TwinCities.com reported. 4,110 pounds of fries (around 2 tons) were fried - less than the record of 4,890, set a couple of years ago.

Some might say that records are made to be broken, but is this obsession with food-related records a sign of our growing dysfunctional relationship with food? Like competitive eating, producing vast quantities of food (much of which is likely to go to waste) seems at best misguided, and at worst seriously wasteful.

Once, the records we broke were sporting ones: fastest mile, highest jump, longest throw. Let's just hope that today's kids won't grow up aiming to beat the "Biggest Burger Eaten" record...

PETA mad at Joe Biden's Hotdog Cart

Oh boy, PETA is growling of something stupid again. The anti-meat, anti-fur, anti-animal testing Crusaders are crazy. And, this time they're sprung up at presidential level, in fact, a level of Vice President.

PETA is mad that the US Vice-President, Joe Biden, stopped by The Colbert Report, to show support for the American soldiers and women ... with hotdogs.

"You can't expect your troops to be lean, medium-sized machines fighting if you're stuffing with fattening, artery clogging meat, eggs and dairy products every day," said PETA Executive Vice President, Tracy Reiman, in a very, very mad.

PETA sent even Joe Biden a letter expressing disappointment of the group, and suggested that next time he should pass the veggie dogs.

Sorry PETA, hotdogs are gross and unhealthy and probably made with cow's feet, but veggie dogs are too ugly; rubbish transformed loaded with sodium.

Here's what's up at PETA-err, paws-about weapons, Joe Biden who satisfy the other of his two Vice presidential responsibilities."Giving hotdogs to returning warriors," said Mr. Vice-President.That day, Stephen Colbert was satanassi American troops returning from Iraq who were enjoying the free beer and vera study grass under the feet.

When the news broke on indignation of PETA and their suggestion that Joe Biden the hand out veggie dogs and vegan food instead, Stephen Colbert, fired back with kitten cake mocking PETA and calling them "PUTA."

PETA is a little kooky, okay, kooky very. I don't eat meat, and Yes, health world it would be much better if we all ate more fruit and vegetables and less meat, but nitpicking a goofy sketch about a fake news show is simply silly. If ever PETA wants to be taken seriously, this is certainly the way to do this. fail.

Can We Legislate Photoshop Use?

To those who aren't aware: EVERYTHING is photoshopped. Every image you see on a magazine cover is not real.

"I don't think there's a single photograph in those (magazines) that's not retouched. They're all manipulated to hell." Hany Farid, Dartmouth College

A number of countries are beginning to discuss how they might legislate against the practice.

Can we really ask governments to stop what we as consumers (apparently) desire?

UK organizations are beginning to talk about what initiatives could be introduced to curb the practice of digital manipulation.

The magazines defend the practice: "Sometimes readers want hyper-reality in a way - they want to be taken out of their own situation." - Jill Wanless, an associate editor at Look Magazine.

Australia have recently introduced voluntary guidelines for fashion and media industries. The code of conduct requires:

Disclosing when images have been retouched and refraining from enhancing photographs in a way that changes a person's body shape by, for example, lengthening their legs or trimming their waist or by removing freckles, lines and other distinguishing marks.

Photographers will not be putting their hands up to 'volunteer'

"Do politicians really so underestimate the populace that they think a warning ought to go on a fashion image?

"Maybe every woman who uses makeup ought to have a warning tattooed on her neck.

"The entertainment media, in general, traffic in fantasy. In that respect, the manipulation of images is a legitimate part of the job of entertainment producers." (source)

Can we really rely on 'voluntary' codes? Or even legislation? Do we as the consumer have a part to play here? Research (and anyone with eyes to see) shows that the size and shape of our bodies are increasingly at odds with media images.

See our exposé on Female Body Shape in the 20th Century if you need more convincing. Or even Wired's infographic on the decreasing size of playmate models.

Does anyone really know how 'hyper-reality' affects us?
