Hello and welcome to Episode 90 of the Internet’s foremost outlet for low-carb support and advocacy, “The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show with Jimmy Moore!”

Sometimes, we get letters. Sometimes we get very strange letters. Today, our host Jimmy shares with you a commenter’s ramble on the true meaning of Christmas…er, um, I mean obesity. While it may have started out as a well-reasoned treatise that began to wander afield after the author drank one sherry too many. But we can’t help but kind of think he must’ve had a few too many shots from the get-go.

Listen in while Jimmy dissects this letter from a sad “former fat man” who felt compelled to share his rather odd opinions about being obese. It is full of anger, self-hate, bad humor, accusations, philosophy, semantic and linguistic critiques, disappointment, and rudeness. In the end, the writer seems to be using Jimmy as a Freudian surrogate punching bag for his own issues.

See how well our host does in rebutting this insane, psychotic ramble. It’s fun, fun, fun for the entire family!

Hello and welcome to the Internet’s best-loved and most frequently cited low-carb podcast, “The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show With Jimmy Moore!”

Today, in Episode 88, our host Jimmy once again tackles the concept of low-calorie, low-fat, low-enthusiasm, low-energy, low-pleasure diets so often foisted upon us by the mainstream media and those few remaining doctors who have yet to hop on the clue-train. The latest suspects are the “Calorie Restriction Society” and their insistence that you should keep lowering and lowering your caloric intake for the sake of health. UGH!

See that logo at the top of this post, dear friends? That’s really all you need to know about these dietary sado-masochists! Listen, enjoy, and engage in the comments section below.

In today’s show, our host Jimmy takes a look at why you should never panic when (that’s right, he said WHEN!) you encounter an unexpected weight gain in the course of your low-carb weight loss experience. As he says in this episode, Jimmy has never met anyone this hasn’t happened to–especially those who have lost significant amounts of weight.
