I once read a book called "Good Calories Bad Calories" back in 2008, great read, a thousand pages of technical insight on the long road of how we got to where we are when it comes to our view on calories if my memory serves me. Here's a note I jotted down after reading it.
Enter Ben 2008 -
Just putting in junk hours is like eating carbs, it makes you think that more will help and in reality you are just getting fat and closer to death. But meat, meat satisfies and solves, meat is tightly held in one package that includes everything, meat is neither sweet or bitter or sour, but rather, it is meat.
Something had to die for you to eat meat, does that register?
What dies when you put in meat hours?
1200 cal of junk carb's make you lose little weight and feel like your starving, 1200 cal of meat makes you full and healthy (check out the Inuit's). A cool thousand bucks can buy you a big tv and leave you feeling starved: Forty hours in a week can make you believe that you need to put in another forty just to break even. Or you can spend one hour a day tutoring a child so they can graduate high school: Spend a thousand bucks on giving a needy family a furnace. We spend all week at work snacking on hours, and then we take the money we earn there and spend it on more empty calories. Now we wonder why we have emotional and financial diabetes?
Re-enter Ben 2010 - I think relating this thought to time = money is important because both sides of the equation can vary so greatly. Not all time/money is created equally, dump the empty calories/time/money from your life and start consuming smaller amounts of quality. Did you know that our bodies can get most of the nutrients we need from meat even though they are in tiny quantities compared to fruits and vegetables. This is because carb's force our body to work overtime (and create to much insulin) and we don't absorb the tiny but sufficient nutrients such as vitamin D.
