50% Fat

I shared this link on Twitter this morning, but the video is so good, I want to make sure you see it. My favorite part? "Fifty percent of our calories should come from fat."

HOW DELICIOUS IS THAT?!



I love that the way to reduce MY body fat is to consume more (high quality) fat. Don't you?

    Girl at 0:14 has fantastic eye makeup.

    Children at 3:05 make me so incredibly sad.

    I'm at 18:30 of Whole30 and feeling fabulous*.

    You are an inspiration.

    *edit: my word verification for this comment was "wines"--the only thing I miss on Whole30.

    Josh --> It's a scary idea, isn't it?!

    Lydia --> Congratulations on passing the halfway mark of your Whole30 -- how awesome is that! Isn't it just like the universe to remind you of wine?!

    Bill --> That would make an awesome t-shirt: REVERSE THE PYRAMID!

    I'm all for eating more fat but this doesn't seem super sciency. Especially the part about "50% that's. . .what. . . half of the people here? probably more?" :-)
