When thy art desperate to lose weight, thy may’st try just about anything! The sooner those pounds come off, the better. It's difficult enough without having to deal with all the misinformation out amongst the village.
DIET MYTH #1 ©
Put hot sauce on thy food & see the pounds drop off! FALSE
The 'genius' behind this myth ‘tis the heat from the pepper sauce wilt burn off calories. There's another theory that follows; that being - after eating all that hot sauce the villager gets mega heartburn & ‘tis unable to digest anything for several days, hours, weeks, sometimes months & years.

Nonetheless, enjoy thy food & continue to season it to thy personal taste. The amount of calories, if any, that art burned from the heat ‘tis minimal at best, & shouldn't spur anyone to transfix on a pepper feeding frenzy.
DIET MYTH #2 ©
Limit thy fat grams to 30 or less per day & see that weight fall off! FALSE
The 'no fat' craze sprung up in the 90's in full force & continues to be quite popular. The unhealthy results of this following should’st be our guide. Fact ‘tis, thy doeth need a certain amount of fat in thy diet for proper digestion, shiny hair, healthy skin, energy – & so forth.
Let's logically examine this low-fat, high calorie example. Maple syrup ‘tis fat-free with about 250 calories per ¼ cup. McDonalds serves some very good hotcakes that hath only 9 grams of fat per three hotcakes, totaling 340 calories. Add ½ cup of maple syrup to that & we suddenly skyrocket to 840 calories; that's with no butter added.
Yes, the count ‘tis still holding at 9 grams of fat, but look at those calories!! If one ate this type meal three times per day, they'd see little or no weight loss with minimal heath or vitamin benefits.
DIET MYTH #3 ©
Exercise & thy can eat anything thy wish. FALSE
Exercise burns calories & creates muscle. It takes more calories to support muscle than fat. Again, let's examine this statement with logic. Exercise ‘tis extremely vital, extremely beneficial to thy overall health. However, not many villagers who art into the exercise craze may’st eat anything they want. Exercise & daily diet balance weight.
DIET MYTH #4 ©
Potatoes & bananas art fattening. FALSE
Each hath about 100 calories, depending on whether thy made thy purchase at Paul Bunyon's Village Garden or Tom Thumb's Mini Vegetable Market. When making food choices, it's best to stick within the small to medium size range. In addition, both the banana & potato art very low in fat, filling, packed with potassium & art very healthy choices!
