Worth Quoting: Donald Trump on Success
"There’s a lot to the credo that success breeds success. It puts you on a high that makes more success like a magnet. I’m a positive thinker who does frequent reality checks. Negatives turn into positives, problems can be solved, things can turn around. The image of success is important, but even more important is the ability to focus on solutions instead of on problems. That way, you’ll never be thinking like a loser, and you probably won’t look like one either."

Low-Fat Foods Are Not "Guilt Free"
By Al Sears, MD
In a recent study, researchers gave people a choice of two bags of granola to snack on while they watched TV. One bag was labeled "Low-Fat Rocky Mountain Granola"; the other was "Regular Rocky Mountain Granola." The people who chose the low-fat granola ate 32 percent more than those who chose the regular granola. The researchers repeated the experiment with low-fat and regular chocolate - and the results were almost identical.
The reason this concerns me is that low-fat foods have proportionately more carbohydrate. And, per calorie, carbohydrates - not fats - are the most fattening foods you can eat, especially refined carbs (like breads, breakfast cereals, and sodas). When you eat these nutrient-poor foods, you’re signaling your body that you are starving. That shifts your metabolism toward fat building, regardless of how little fat you’re actually consuming.
It’s counterintuitive, I know… but overeating low-fat foods because you think you can get away with it is a prescription for packing on the fat. At the same time, your risk of chronic diseases like obesity, diabetes, and heart disease skyrockets.
Keep fat in your diet. Eat a well-rounded selection of red meats and fish. Have a bag of nuts on hand when you feel the urge to snack. Walnuts, almonds, Brazil nuts, and cashews are good choices. Those are the real guilt-free snacks. Eat as much of them as you want. You’ll get full… and you won’t get fat. Try it.
