Try, Try again!

I may have discovered why my blogs didn't appear! I had the address wrong! *blush*  So here goes attempt # three at sending this post that I published nearly a year ago on 360°. If it works, then I can do what I need to do in here! Fingers crossed! More Hugs!
Old blog:
I'm going to write a controversial peeve of mine, and give you something to think about. It's the theory that fat equals fat. Who came up with that idea, and why? I'm referring to the idea almost everyone holds that eating foods containing fat is what is making most people gain weight. Humankind has been metabolizing fat as long as he's been on earth, without being overweight. It wasn't until "they" came up with the weird idea to start removing fat from our food that man started gaining . Take milk, for instance. The next time you are in the grocery store, check out the "carbohydrate" (sugar) content of milk products. Yes—carbohydrates equal sugar! The lowest carbohydrate content is heavy cream (zero carbs) and the highest is non-fat milk! My CA sis (120 lbs.) has been an insulin dependent diabetic for 62 years!!!! If her blood sugar level drops, and she needs a big sugar hit, she drinks non-fat milk—not orange juice! Americans have steadily increased their body fat as "they" have removed "fat" from products. Check out "low fat" products vs. their counterparts {mayonnaise and salad dressing, for instance) all of the low fat products have a higher carbo content (more sugar)! What percent of the population was overweight before the margarine over butter/vegetable oil (carbos) over lard era? I maintain that animal fat is not harmful, and metabolizes without a problem. I agree that the manufactured saturated fats can be harmful, but not natural animal fats, Think about it! Sugar causes fat, not fat! how do we fatten animals for the market? Carbos (grass and grain) how does a hummingbird fatten up for migration? Carbos! 

I said it. I feel better. Thanks for the ear, and happy pondering! Huge hugs!
