I generally eat fairly healthily, but yeah, eleven years ago when I lost 42 lbs., I did it eating dessert every day (I still do, it's just a small slice of cake or only two Kisses or--my usual--a Tootsie Roll pop), eating fast food once a week (which I also still do). The type of food matters for health, it does not matter for weight loss. I can't believe these dumbasses actually believe that nonsense, especially when so many of us are living proof that they're wrong. Then they bitch about "people who can eat whatever they want and not gain weight." Yes, because unlike you, they eat small to moderate amounts of it.
