#389 Best Diet Advice I Ever Got

Dr. K here...

 

My relationship with food used to suck. It's hard to admit that to you.

 

Growing up, food was the go-to for everything.

 

'Have a bad day? No problem, let me make you a pie'. 'You made the team? Awesome, let's celebrate, let me make you a pie.'

 

Let me be clear:

 

• I used to think fat made you fat,
• I used to think carbs made you fat,
• I used to think anything that wasn't organic was poison,
• I used to think sugar was the devil,
• I used to think fructose was the devil,
• I used to think fruit made you fat,
• I used to think I had to eat small meals,
• I used to think breakfast was the most vital meal of the day,
• I used to think saturated fat and cholesterol would kill you,
• I used to think skipping a meal was metabolic suicide,
• I used to think eat all your meals was metabolic suicide,
• I used to think too much protein was going to kill my kidneys,
• I used to think grains were a food group,

 

And, I got most of this from well-meaning and smart people.
