Seeking the Low-Calorie Fountain of Youth
(Severely Restricted Diets May Slow Aging Process)

I'm a sucker for this stuff - it sounds good to me!

I mean ...The science is "fascinating."

I'm 193 in 'caloric intake years.'

I don't see anything more than common sense at work here.

My wife has gone the Weight Watchers route.

WW does extensive research into caloric content of almost every food
available (even fast food chains) they then convert calories into "points."

Their plan allows you to eat anything you like, but you work under a cap on
total points for the day. You can blow all your points on a Mrs. Fields
binge or a Big Mac if you want, but if you want a good meal, you learn
portion control accross all food groups.

She lost 40lbs in about a year. WW works and works well.

But as in any kind of life change, discipline and the will to stick with it
prevail.

YMMV,
