My nanny is convinced that getting less sleep makes you live longer. So she punishes herself and gets 5 hours.

Good point...

FTFA: The study diet included 15 percent protein and 10 percent fat and was enriched with vitamins.

So it's 75% carbs? That's a terrible diet for people.

/Eats 40% protein, 30% carbs, 30% fat

you eat too much protein.

So, just eat skinny monkeys. Got it.

A Tout Le Monde: Gyrfalcon: So you can be skinny, and live longer; but you'll be miserable at all the yummy food you're not eating.

SCREW THAT.

Nah, it's a self balancing thing. When I lost weight I stopped craving the bad stuff as much because I was more in love with myself than the food.

You do crave less, but it's not only about liking yourself more--you lose the craving for carbs. When I was fat, the 10% of my life that involved eating was great, and the other 90% sucked. Now, the 10% eating part sucks, and the othr 90% is much better--less aches and pains, easier to get around, more stamina, etc.

So, you can cut off their food entirely and they will live forever?

A question to all you monkeys out there: would I get a laser rocket arm from flinging my poo all day?

/Among other things

Broadside: So, you can cut off their food entirely and they will live forever?

I like the jibe of your vibe!

Aren't you kind of old for a nanny?

rodeofrog: I've done questionable things.

Nothing the God of biomechanics wouldn't let you into heaven for.

I'll just leave this here...

Does it matter if it's chilled?

EZ Writer - Wait a minute... If I evolved from monkeys and apes - why are there still monkeys and apes?


We all evolved from a common ancestor, not monkeys and apes.

Monkeys in both groups consumed very healthful diets. "We are studying calorie restriction, not malnutrition," stresses Colman, who does not follow this type of diet herself.

She sounds fat.
