STOP eating, to lose weight.

Also, walking works wonders, too.


I'm not disagreeing with you. I stopped eating for a long time to lose weight, and I walk and ride my bike all over the place.

(Even at 180 pounds, I was never a "fat loser," but at 120 pounds, I feel healthier and more energetic, and aches and pains I thought were consequences of aging went away completely.)

But I do think it's natural, having enjoyed a meal thoroughly, to feel a sense of completion when it's over and not to have to worry about one's weight.

When I was in France, I saw people (almost everybody) eating all they wanted without getting fat, spending a lot of time in the kitchen, the daily and weekly markets, socializing, raving about delicacies and fashions, going to the bakery once or twice a day to pick up fresh baguettes and loaves of all sizes, etc. They really love not only food, but the good life in general -- including looking good!

And they love their wine, pastries, cheeses, and chocolates, too -- but they don't suffer the cardio-vascular consequences we're saddled with here. That's "the paradox."
