Warum immer noch Leute auf Atkins schwören

in Kilo Leicht, on January 24, 2009

© Kelly Hau Photography Warum immer noch Leute auf Atkins schwören, ist sicher nicht nur mir schleierhaft. Robert C. Atkins, der die nach ihm benannte Low-Carb-Diät entwickelte, hatte schon zu Lebzeiten viele Kritiker. Doch mit seinem Tod 2003 wurde die Kritik auch persöhnlich, es hieß, d...

Why Selling-Off Automobile Marques is a Bad Idea

in Classical Drives, on December 29, 2008

The worldwide recession is, as everyone knows, leading to talk of auto manufacturer buyouts: GM buys Chrysler , Renault buys Chrysler, the Chinese buy GM, etc. You'd better hope it never happens as history shows us that when car company A takes over car company B the results are usually ...

in Straightfromthedoc, on February 9, 2008

Everyone knows what an Atkins Diet is right? It is a (once?)popular low-carb, high protein diet fad which was first intended to the clinically obese, needing drastic weight loss. But then, anything in the modern world becomes a fad. Even the non-obese are adapting to the Atkins diet. Now, a stu...

Debunking Urban Legends With the Chevrolet Nova "No Va" Myth

in Classical Drives, on December 18, 2007

Diet to go

in Daily Power Walk, on July 24, 2007

Wouldn´t it be nice if someone else could cook a healthy meal for you when you are on a diet? Some people say they don´t know how to cook, I am sure everyone can learn, so they don´t know how to cook healthy meals. I have found something that seems like a good choice then. The Diet to Go site...

Diamonds Get Sticky

in The Jewelry Weblog, on July 21, 2007

I recently have had to remove peanut butter forever from my diet. I'm not one to eat a lot of protein, so I've often used peanut butter to help out with this issue. However, after realizing how fattening it is, well, the jar is now collecting dust in my pantry. Even my husband can't e...

The South Beach Diet Vs The GI Diet?

in Daily Power Walk, on June 23, 2007

From what I heard I thought that The South Beach Diet was just like the GI diet. A low carb diet. Low carb meaning low in carbohydrates. As I didn´t understand the difference between the two I decided to do a little research. The South Beach Diet is said to not be a low carb diet but a bala...

Birth control and weight gain

Drinking spoonfuls of sugar

in Are you a beauty?, on May 6, 2007

I've discovered years ago that watching my carb and fat intake can preserve my goal weight with very little exercise. That was a true revelation, after years of fighting with being overweight, trying every diet out there I was freed with this simple answer. Even if you never struggled with your...

GI all day!

in Daily Power Walk, on February 28, 2007

As I've said before I am not a fan of crazy diets. But there is one diet that actually I would say is not a diet but a life style choice. The GI choice. The Glycaemic Index choice that is. You've probably heard how too much sugar makes us high then low and tired. In all food we eat ther...

I try to eat quite healthily during the week but there is one day I don't limit myself. Sundays. Sunday is my food off day. If you try to eat right you don't have to limit yourself, you only have to make choices. On Sundays I don't think about whether or not I am eating salad ...

Healthy low cal snacks

in Are you a beauty?, on February 9, 2007

It's really difficult to snack away once you're on a diet. Watching out for every calorie you put in your mouth is really frustrating, and it's difficult to put together three decent meals, let alone snacks. But when you get hungry between meals the worst thing to do would be to grab...

Brunswick Stew

in Do you like to cook?, on February 6, 2007

If my hubby still owned a BB gun, if I were a sharp shooter, and if I relished the idea of beheading and de-furring a fuzzy grey squirrel, you can bet I would have made this dish with it just to try what's traditional. Am I ever so glad that chicken is now the meat of choice when prepa...

Gluten Free Sources

in Do you like to cook?, on January 12, 2007

We've been having a lively discussion about gluten-free food over at a (non-food) forum I belong to, and someone was kind enough to list their favorite sources for gluten-free stuff. My family aren't gluten intolerant nor does anyone (as far as we know) suffer from celiac's disease, b...

Wear clothing which fits perfectly

in Busy with Style, on December 29, 2006

I'm sure you have quite many times bought an item in a size smaller or in a size too big anticipating weight loss or gain. But, what are you going to wear in the meantime? I'm serious, even the most expensive, luxurious and gorgeous clothes won't make you look great if they don't ...

Vegetable-Rich Low-Carb Diet, Reduces Risk of Heart Disease

in Straightfromthedoc, on November 12, 2006

Atkins diet (which I've always been sceptical of) has been known to put its followers at a higher risk of clogged arteries and heart attack in the long-term. Therefore this low-carb- high protein and fat diet has lost its public popularity. But now, a new Harvard research is saying otherw...

Mazda's Rotary-Engine Sports Car Gets a Leno Power Boost

in Classical Drives, on October 8, 2006

Dr. Felix Wankel's rotary engine was arguably the most significant improvement on the internal combustion engine since the electric starter.

French Fries And Diabetes

in Daily Diabetic, on September 29, 2006

Yikes. How can something as small as a french fry be so harmful? At least that's what one study showed. Consider the research: Women who splurged on french fries just once a week were 21 percent more likely to get diabetes than those who ate none, in a 20-year Harvard School of Public Hea...

Overcome binge eating

in Are you a beauty?, on September 16, 2006

When I was doing the Atkins (it went really well if you're asking, I lost everything I wanted to and really feel great about my bod now), or any other diet, I got these really crazy urges to stuff my face with all the stuff I wasn't supposed to eat. I gave in once or twice, eating up to 2...

The End of Low-Carb?

in Businesspundit, on December 21, 2004

Back in January I wrote about the start of the anti-Atkins movement. Now, CNN is reporting on the decline in the low-carb craze, saying that it peaked in February. A study by NPD Group, an independent marketing information company, found that the percentage of American adults on any low-carb...

7-UP's New Low Carb Drink

The Motley Fool offers this take (free reg. required) on the new 7-UP Plus. First Pepsi (NYSE: PEP) and Coca-Cola (NYSE: KO) tried to outdo each other with low-carb drinks that at once left a powerful aftertaste and were of higher carb count than their diet iterations. In Coke's case, Diet C...

Cereality

Via the paper version of Businessweek , I found out about Cereality , the new cereal bar backed by some big players in the field. An interesting new concept, to be sure. I'll go out on a limb and say that despite the low carb craze, this is here to stay. I say we business bloggers all ...

The anti-Atkins Fight Begins

in Businesspundit, on January 23, 2004

I heard my first anti-Atkins commercial on the radio today. Surprisingly, the product was a weight loss supplement, not another part of the food industry.

The Changing Marketplace of the Food Industry

in Businesspundit, on December 2, 2003

Here is a nice piece about the difficulty of being CEO of a food company. Indeed, it's far from clear whether American consumers might not be even fatter in five years than they are right now, or whether they'll ever really eat to live instead of live to eat. But industry CEOs are respo...

Will Coors Go Out of Business?

in Businesspundit, on November 21, 2003

Probably not. And if they did I could care less since I am not a Coors fan. Coors does, however, need a new product. Anheuser-Busch is growing rapidly because their low-carb beer has been a huge hit. Making matters worse, low-carb sales are sure to swallow some of Coors Light's busine...
