Mount Shasta, CA, December 31, 2025: In a recent move, researchers at Beth Israel Medical, Harvard, and Yale University have recommended adding the obvious waist circumference to the definition of “obese,” with good reason. But that also means that three-quarters of all U.S. adults are obese.
Here’s what happened: Over time, in this culture the food-sources have changed, and if you eat “normally,” your health goes downhill fast. But it’s actually not complicated to fix that.
It’s not *fun* to fix it, because you can’t continue eating corporate-engineered addictive fake-foods and fake-food snacks. That’s what has cost you your youthful body and energy. Those “normal” foods are engineered to keep you fat and addicted, so you gotta tell them no. However, it’s not actually difficult … if you know how.
The Magic Trick
When it comes to re-training your body, here’s the trick that makes it much easier. It’s a sequence …
- Do each step then go to the next, and you’ll first remove the addiction.
- When you remove the addiction, you’ll stop creating the obesity.
- When you stop creating the obesity, your body will revert to a more functional, stronger, healthier, better-feeling state.
Here’s the magic sequence. It can take some weeks or months, so be prepared for a slow marathon and not a wild sprint. Calm your mind to be patient and simply continue day after day. Weighing yourself every single day will aid your motivation. Yep, it will go up and down a bit, but there is learning to be found in that. 🙂 Here’s what to do …
1) Get off addictive foods
These are fast-converting carbs (all grains, all sugars, all seed-oils, all salty “snacks), and they keep your body craving more, just like a junkie wants heroin, and a smoker wants cigarettes. The best way to do this is: for a period of time, eat *only* single-ingredient foods that you prep yourself.
.
Think about your great-grandparents. If they could get the food–anywhere in the world–it’s actual food.
.
But anything “invented” after 1950, anything that requires an advertisement, anything prepped or packaged is probably not actual food. All soups, sauces, chips, prepped-meals, frozen meals, snacks, all fast food, restaurant food is no longer actual food.
.
The best approach: Eat things like eggs and bacon (no toast), huge salads without croutons or sweet things like sugared nuts or cranberries, make veggie and meat soups without potatoes (other than japanese or purple potatoes, which are a different species). Eat meat/fish/fowl with low-carb veggies. Have a very few fruits from: berries, citrus, pears, peaches, apples, kiwi. Absolutely *stuff* yourself with these things, to stay away from the newer, invented, damaging “normal” foods. Those are the problem, and they are killing us.
2) “Intermittent Fasting” — Eating Only in a Window of Time
Once you’re free of addictive foods, your addiction will fade away over a number of days. You’ll still have bad habits, but if you focus and continue, those bad habits will weaken after three weeks. If you cave in, your three weeks starts over. But now, once free of addictive foods … stop eating all day long.
.
Set a window of time, for example, 8 hours and eat ONLY within this window. This allows your body 16 hours to rest, take a break, and focus on stuff other than digestion. Your body will function better, and you will sleep better, feel stronger, and have better energy.
.
And since you’ve weakened the addiction, you’ll find that now … it’s reasonably easy to only eat within this window. Especially if you really, really tank up, especially in the beginning. Got the impulse to eat some more? Tank up like crazy, if necessary, with these non-poisonous, non-addictive foods before the end of your “eating window.” 🙂
3) Learn to do a One-Day Fast … It is now Easy!
Once you can do this “intermittent” fasting and are no longer gobbling food all day long, then learn to take a one-day fast. Nothing other than water, coffee, or tea. That’s it. No carbs of any kind. No protein of any kind. No fats of any kind. (So no milk or cream or fake sweetener in your coffee; take it black.) Now here’s the surprising part.
.
Since you’ve already turned off the compulsive “gobbles,” and you’ve regained the ability to say no to eating, you will find that a one-day fast is actually rather easy. You may still have some habits, or thoughts, but your body and addictions will not actually stop you.
.
And now, finally, your body can begin to function as it was designed, because it uses this time to clear out the “trash” in the body, removing damaged cells, and restoring even better response to insulin. Again, your sleep, energy, and mood improves. It’s like taking the trash out of the kitchen. Before, it just piled up forever, and that’s lousy.
4) Find some Easy Exercise
Begin some kind of exercise, whatever you can do every day is best. Doesn’t have to be difficult or painful, just something you can do *regularly* like walking or gardening or yoga or lifting tiny weights at home or calisthenics or taichi. What matters, at first, isn’t what or how hard. What’s important is regularity.
5) Remove Poisons
Remove all poisons from your house, they keep you off-balance. They’ve become “normal” during the same time we became near-universally sick and fat, but these things are totally damaging your body. So these poisons include all kitchen tools, pots, food-containers, plates, glasses made plastic, silicone, teflon. This includes plastic air-fryers. Remove all scented cleansers or air-fresheners or laundry-sheets or pods. All are toxic. Swap out your undergarments that use synthetics, then pants and shirts and dresses and skirts and outer clothing built of plastic. All these damage the hormones that keep you healthy and feeling good.
And If You Want to Go a Bit Further …
- You’ll feel even better if you add some daily sunlight, and if possible, give your body doses of too-cold (cold shower) or too-hot (sauna), and add some form of higher-intensity exercise.
- There are other things like mold, EMF exposure from electrical devices or powerlines, and light-pollution disturbing your sleep. But by now you’re already in way better shape.
Congratulations!
At this point, you’re no longer obese. Wow! It happened along the way, just by changing “normal” poisons all around us into actual food, actual movement, actual sleep. Cool!

Mount Shasta, November 1, 2025. When it comes to living long, it comes down to eating actual food (usually single ingredients), avoiding poison (unclean air and water and household “cleaners,” additives, fast carbs), and staying “active.” But not all “activities” are equal. For example:
June 7, 2023, Mount Shasta, CA: If you experience writer’s block, it’s very easy to change that so that you no longer experience writer’s block. Here’s how …
Mt. Shasta, California, June 15, 2022: When I was 26 or so, I figured out a handy truth …
Like a lot of people who end up being great at their job, Robin Dreeke became obsessed with learning how to better connect with people because initially, he wasn’t very good at it.
This quote started me thinking (years later in 2018), because actually, creation, persistence (survival), and destruction are in a way all parts of the same thing.
