Lose Weight, Eat More

OK, so enough beating around the bush. Since I have no followers and this will largely go unnoticed on the internet, I shall now disclose the secret to weight loss:
1. Eat lots of non-calorie dense foods - i.e. bulk. You can eat a hell of a lot of vegetables for not many calories. And smother them in butter, because it's still healthier. And use thyme, and salt. Add flavour, because it's better to eat a kilo of...

When I was obese, I would avoid butter like the plague. I remember once having to fill out a questionnaire at school, whether we took butter or margarine on toast, and I didn't put either on - because, partly I thought it would make me thin.
But that's a total misunderstanding on my part of why I was fat....

So you should have got through a fair amount of the bacon, but probably not all of it.
Now for the fun part. Go and buy some borlotti beans. Lots of them, enough to make up the same number of calories.
Start eating. There are 112 calories in 100g borlotti beans, and that makes 13 cans of beans! No way I could get through that!...

OK, so now we're going to do the same thing, but with bacon. Remember how many calories you ate last time? If you're anything like me it could be 1,500.
Now, go and buy the same number of calories, but in bacon. So, if it's 1,500 calories you ate in ice cream, you're now going to have a fun time trying to get through 21 rashers of bacon. Seriously, try it....
