He made it perfectly clear that on this one there would be no negotiation and no "give" on his part. I am perfectly fine with that because it has never been my intention to use drugs or to venture into an unhealthy place. I have too many things going on in my life to do that.
So I was reading this book yesterday and learned about oxidizer types with respect to diets. While reading it I learned that I am a slow oxidizer leaning towards medium. Diane and Roland are a fast oxidizers by my guess. Oxidizer types are determined by a persons ability to burn through carbs. If they burn slowly through them then they can more readily use them in their diet. This explains why I typically do so much better on diets lower in fat and higher in carbs. Anyway, I found this fascinating and a google search will provide a ton of information on this subject. Here is a good link and it has a link on it to a test to determine what type you are.

Jillian Michaels mentions this in both of her books ... there is a thread here on it ...
