Are you a Conscious or Unconscious Dieter. PODSNACKS/ArtoftheDiet 122 [Rebroadcast]
Summary: <a href="http://www.artofthediet.com/conscious-unconscious-dieter-podsnacks-artofthediet-122-rebroadcast/img_7608/" rel="attachment wp-att-7415"></a><br> <br> “If I know better than you know what I am up to, it is only because I spend more time with myself than you do.”<br> ― <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/author/show/6952980.Daniel_C_Dennett">Daniel C. Dennett</a>, <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/work/quotes/2767774">Freedom Evolves</a><br> <br> The Unconscious Diet. Is there such a thing where one maintains their weight loss without having to think about it?<br> Apparently, yes.<br> I’m not one of them, mind you. Nor have I ever met one. Sorta like my meetings with extraterrestrials. I think they exist but not from personal experience.<br> —————————————–<br> THIS IS A REBROADCAST FROM ONE YEAR AGO, 2016. BUT, SINCE I'VE JUST STARTED THE NEW WW PROGRAM CALLED FREESTYLE (AND AM FINDING IT SURPRISINGLY EASY TO DO. SEE MY <a href="http://facebook.com/artofthediet">FACEBOOK/ARTOFTHEDIET</a> UPDATES) I REMAIN EXHIBIT A FOR THE OPPOSITE OF AN UNCONCIOUS DIETER AND SINCE IT IS DECEMBER 13, 2017 AND DOUG JONES IS THE WINNER IN ALABAMA, BETWEEN THAT FACT AND FREESTYLE, MY STEP IS A BIT LIGHTER AND HOPE MAY STILL BE ALIVE FOR MAN AND WOMANKIND. ANYWAY, BACK TO THE ARTICLE FROM THE NYTIMES FROM A YEAR AGO THAT PROMPTED THIS PODCAST.<br> —————————————————————————————–<br> But, I’m told in a article in the NYTIMES this week that they do, in fact, exist. Along with several other categories of “weight-loss plans that worked.” AND, that obesity is not just ONE disease but many diseases, sorta like cancer.<br> Oh, to be an unconscious one in more ways than one.<br> But, if I were one of the unconscious ones, I’d write “The Unconscious Diet Book” and sit back and let the money roll in.<br> But, I’m not one of them but I can discuss this article in some depth in this episode of PODSNACKS/ Art of the Diet, so you can figure out where you may be in these categories.<br> Having to do this podcast weekly forces me to think more than I’d like to about this issue, yet, I also know if I don’t think about it, if I’m not conscious that this is my challenge on a daily basis, the regain train will stop at my door.<br> So, As Daniel C. Dennett suggests. “If I know better than you know what I am up to, it is only because I spend more time with myself than you do.”<br> So, let’s deck those halls and talk about diets, cancer, drugs, counting, combating as we head into the holidays, shall we?<br> It’s still better than a political conversation.<br> And, PS. I end on my final review of “This is Us” the TV program that everyone seems to love..except me. Warning! Skunk at lawn party approaching.<br> <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2016/12/12/health/weight-loss-obesity.html?smid=fb-nytimes&smtyp=cur&_r=2">New York Times Article:</a><br>
