Our choices make us fat, not McDonald’s

You might still be young...it may catch up with you over the years. It's not just about weight though...you can be slim and have high cholesterol...so you should moderate what you eat.

I think poor choices begin to show late 40s early 50s, especially with black Americans for diabetes and cholesterol.

First off, peep the low quality of the camera footage. Like come on son, in this day and age you have to go out of your way to get a camera with quality this shytty. I get it tho....your from some small town in the middle of nowhere and getting a camera with quality this shytty is supposed to convince me it's so small corporate america has yet to discover it and put a walmart in your area huh? Ok, cool, moving on.
"Woody" say's, with the help of 3 Sophomore students from his class, he's going to replicate the "Supersize Me" documentary , only he wants to do it exactly opposite. Why? First of all, if you're already overweight why would you even be thinking about attempting an experiment that could possibly kill you especially after watching the movie "Supersize Me" and knowing the possible dangers associated with an experiment of this magnitude. He states that the guy in supersize me was healthy and physically fit (which was verified in "Supersize Me" by named physicians during the documentary) prior to beginning his experiment then goes on to provide his UNSUBSTANTIATED obesity and blood work statistics. What type of experiment control is this? How are health statistics of this nature, unverified by any medical physician, to be taken seriously? If statistics of this nature are to be given any type of validity what is to stop a person from simply saying they were 500 lbs at the beginning of the month and lost 250 pounds in 30 days and then provide statistics in the same manner as "Woody" to substantiate that claim? "Woody" should know better then his, I mean he claims to teach biology, a subject that deals directly with the science of experimentation. Anyway, After providing these UNSUBSTANTIATED "statistics" "Woody" immediately moves into his planned course of action for the "experiment".
"Woody" states plainly that he made arrangements with "Joe" ( last name?) at the local Mcdonalds. No mention of what arrangements and who exactly "Joe" is are made? Information like that is important to know when in an "experiment" like this for the fact that they can directly effect the Control of it. Things like, Was the food prepared differently then the food prepared for regular customers? Was "Joe" the manager of the store or was he just the guy who made the fries? ETC. need to be addressed to show that control is true.
Next in the "documentary" "Woody" flashes to a clip of his supposed first day work out (where he is walking as leisurely as i believe a person could) where he states how tough the gingerly stroll was while making no mention of the specific criteria he set for his workout portion of the "experiment". Just a corny phrase, an approximation of how far he walked and his plans to warm up before getting out of bed the next morning.
THEN THE "DOCUMENTARY" GOES TO THE RESULTS.
In a 90 day experiment this is all the evidence we are provided to believe your results?????
Are you kidding me?
The results are given as more unsubstantiated results. There is no physicians's name given anywhere in the "documentary" as having verified any of the statistics given.
The only proof this guy provides anywhere in this video are 2 pictures that he purports to be him before and after this experiment.
Also listen to the the hypnotic tone and music being played when he's reading the results.
I came across this "documentary" after i saw the following NEWS REPORT on yahoo news today
http://news.yahoo.com/video/man-loses-weight-eating-mcdonalds-184745397.html
In this clip it describes the "experiment" and shows a clip of the 3 supposed 3 students referenced in the original "documentary above. The "news agency" again makes no mention of the exact location or name of the manager at this Mcdonalds they keep referencing. And attributes this lone quote with from one of the 3 students (I assume) that was involved with the experiment: [clip]"...I thought it was crazy..."[/clip] lol
No mention is made of the original news agency that reported this story?

In this clip they take the video shown in the yahoo clip and attach a NBC banner on the bottom of it (a banner that shows the time and weather but not the date). The clip then goes on to use supposed segment clips from other unidentifiable news agencies to explain the supposed student assignment aspect of the experiment (remember the 3 kids?)
In this clip tho, I finally found an identifiable name of a news agency to look into (KCCI news
http://www.kcci.com/news/entertainm...est/-/9356786/23753384/-/3lighnz/-/index.html
This clip provides more verifiable information then the others which ill build on later....
