Hey, I'm ALL ABOUT the butter! Nothing but the real thing! However, tons of it is still quite caloric, even if you're over the "fat is bad" thing. And really, I was thinking more about the sugar than the butter/heavy cream/fried in lard thing. . . the Amish have a real sweet tooth for sure.
Point is, when you're thinking diet vs. exercise, they do NOT count calories, no ma'am! Nor carbs, nor sugar grams. |

I think what is also interesting is that 100 years ago I still had fat people in my family. They were poor farmers but still managed to be plump. They couldn't afford processed food nor labor-saving appliances/farm equipment. Their lifestyle was probably fairly similar to the Amish. I think it shows what causes weight problems is not the same for all people and is more complex than can be contained in a soundbite.

I like to snack and prefer small snacks to big meals. I like eating every few hours. Sometimes it's just a piece of fruit or something like that, but I like knowing I can have something to eat frequently. Erica |
