Wise man say: Eat little food, like 5:2, no magic fix. Many like now, but not big answer.


Big news! Smart-Thinkers from many caves say "Eat-Sometimes" way not make Cave-Folks much less fat! Tribe-thinkers look at many many campfires (twenty-two!) and say eat-some, then no-eat, just like eat-regular-way for making body smaller. Not much better than just sit-still and eat-always, say smart ones! This make many cave-folks scratch head. Tribe try hard to be small for hunt, for run from bear. But Smart-Thinkers say if you want less fat, "Eat-Sometimes" not magic club. Better just eat less, maybe move more, like always. Many cave-folks just get hungry for no good reason! **Boulder, Strong Hunter, big muscles but want less belly fat:** "Me try Eat-Sometimes. Belly still big. Hard to hunt when hungry. Me just eat less meat now. Easier." **Pebble, Berry Picker, good at finding sweet treats:** "My cousin, he try Eat-Sometimes. He just grumpier, no much smaller. Me think good berries make strong, not thin." **Chief Rock, Elder of River Tribe:** "Hmm, this important talk. Me say, listen to Smart-Thinkers. But also, use your own two eyes. If body feel good, strong for hunt, that best. Not just look thin. Eat meat, eat berries, stay strong!" Story by Ug from Caveman Talk Fire, on the scene.
