I know, I know…I said I wasn’t going to be back until tomorrow with Method #2 for building muscle and losing fat (Anabolic Burst Cycling), but after the reaction to my inclusion of a McDonald’s Double Cheeseburger wrapped in lettuce as part of my sample meal plan yesterday, I couldn’t help myself.

Do You Believe Everything You Read?

Did you know that McDonald’s is the world’s largest purchaser of cow eyeballs? Yes, cow eyeballs.

Also, if you spin around 7 times in your bathroom with the lights off chanting “Bloody Mary” the half sister of Elizabeth I will appear and KILL YOU.

I know. I have done this.

And, of course, spraying Listerine around the vicinity of your back yard keeps the mosquitoes, particularly those with malaria, out of site for…like…at least 5 years.

As Ben Stiller would say, “I read about it… in a BOOK”

Or maybe on the internet.

Either way, it has to be true.

Back to the cow eyeballs. Seriously? Let’s think about this logically.

Previously, I made a short and sweet post that was very well received (hundreds of comments and counting) called The Best Diet Tip EVER.

In that tip, we talked about the simplest way to avoid temptation and cravings—don’t have it in the house.

Simply put, if it’s not available, it’s not a temptation.

But today’s tip digs a little deeper.

Did you know that even “healthy” foods can be a problem for some people?  There are certain foods—and it’s an individual thing—that once you start eating them, it’s very hard to stop.

For me, it’s pasta.  Sure, I’ll cook the whole wheat variety and sit down to a “healthy” meal, but unless I specifically portion out the amount I’m going to eat, I can easily end up downing half the box or more.

You see, if I’m not careful, “healthy” can easily turn into a massive calorie overload sent straight to my waistline.

As I sit here and type this, the time reads 11:06 PM. And you know what? I’m eating.

*Gasp*

What?? Eating after 7 PM?! Yes, I know, I’m breaking the rules.

But frankly, that’s what I do.

When rules don’t make sense to me, I simply choose not to follow them (unless, of course, those “rules” are “laws”…not really into the whole illegal activity thing).

But as far as the whole “no eating after 7” nonsense goes, I break that one just about every day.

And so should you.
