I could almost have written it myself.

As for fat phobia and the idea that eating red meat/saturated fat etc, my cholesterol at the age of 52 was pretty much perfect and has hardly changed since I first had it tested maybe 20 years ago.

I get so frustrated when people I know who say they have high cholesterol and therefore won't touch eggs and red meat and live on pasta and wholegrain bread etc. They even eat processed easy spread butter rather than the real thing!! Arghh!!!!!! I have so many bruises on my head from banging it on a wall because of these people.

I can also vouch for the fact that ketogenic diets work for fat loss. I've never done a 'steak and eggs' diet as I just couldn't justify spending that kind of money. So I call my version the 'beef mince, tuna, chicken and eggs' diet

Another good post Eazy. Just hope people realise you are not trying to kill us all.
