So our government ran a study for 9 days with 43 kids between 9 and 18 years old who were all overweight, high risk of Type 2 Diabetes and other disorders, and averaged a quarter of the daily food intake from added sugars.  In the study they simply replaced the calories of crappy added sugars with crappy carbohydrates (think bagels, baked chips, etc.) that had no added sugar, and also some small amount of fruit and vegetables. This cut their daily average of added sugars from 27% to 10%.  After only 9 days all of the kids showed marked improvements in cholesterol, blood pressure, triglycerides, fasting blood sugar and insulin levels!  Of course the scientists were shocked. Just imagine the results if they ate healthy carbohydrates, proteins and fats in the right proportion and did it for 30 days or longer.

After the FDA made a recommendation to lower the amount of allowable added sugar to the “dietary guidelines” the Sugar Association and the Grocery Manufacturers Association are both fighting the study and criticizing it. This is what is wrong with our food chain.

SnoRidge CF_2 for 1 WB_BarbaraThis past Saturday we had our 7th Annual (SRCF) Halloween Party and we had 53 costumed crazies! Each year as Halloween approaches I admit there is a part of me that does not want to dig out the decorations and help to set it all up; and the (self-induced) pressure for a new costume gets a little much. Then Michelle talks me back off the ledge, sends the evite and commits us, and starts decorating the house with the same energy as Christmas (which is awesomely creepy).

By the time the party weekend rolls around though I can’t wait to see all the different costumes, get into character and just relax with a drink, good food and good times. This year I think was our biggest and best turnout. We hope everyone had a great time as we had so much fun we are already planning to host our 8th party next year on October 29th (Saturday).  If you didn’t get to make it this year we hope to see you next year. Get a sitter and start costume planning in 3, 2, 1….Go!

Tomorrow is the Halloween Party and NOT the “Frankenchipper WOD”.  That is next Saturday on what is traditionally known as “Halloween”.  This message is for someone not to be named (that rhymes with “tank”) who was going to wear a costume tomorrow.  Why in the world I didn’t let him is beyond me.

Events:

Saturday 10/24 SRCF Halloween Costume Party:

Start planning ahead for the SRCF Halloween Costume Party on Saturday Oct. 24th at 7:30pm. You will need a costume and a dish to bring. The party will be at our house. Evite is posted to the Facebook group so please click on it and RSVP.

Saturday 10/31 SRCF “Frankenchipper” WOD:
