Finally watched Fathead page

[mcsnick]

Loved it. I'm going to try to get my dad to watch it. I am so worried about him. He's probably 50 pounds overweight and eats a huge bowl of oatmeal for breakfast every morning. He's still totally stuck in conventional wisdom-- pretzels for snacks (I mean, they ARE low fat!), etc. I hope the movie is a gentle way to prod him. Thanks for the rec!

Oh and also I have to say, it makes me SO mad how much the government has lied to us. I mean, people base their LIVES off this stuff.

Have you watched Tom Naughton's lecture called Big Fat Fiasco? YouTube - ‪Big Fat Fiasco pt. 1‬‏ It's in 3 parts. I think it's even better than the movie.

Just watched it about a month ago and loved it too.

Fathead is what led me to this site and eating this way.

Fathead got my husband on board, and since we are doing it together... We've both done incredibly well. I always tell everyone I know to watch it.. haha I'm probably annoying.

I haven't watched it yet. I will watch it tonight!

Thanks for the recommendation! I immediately opened it on Youtube and finished it now.

It was exactly like watching Gary Taubes' lecture on Youtube (and reading his Why We Get Fat book) with one little exception: It was made more entertaining and simpler and the the introduction on science was very eye-opening.

Watched the movie after hearing of it here. Loved it. Going to watch the linked videos above now...

Sigh ... my husband used it as justification to eat even more fast food. He's not dumb, he 'got' the message but chooses to take away only the information that junk food is is good for you.

Head.Desk. Repeat until comatose.
