If you are like most people, then you have come to the right place because this is the first of several (don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t ask me how many; I have no idea) pieces on secrets of the universe.  <\/p>\n<p>Before I go further, I must put in a slight disclaimer:  For years I have had clients come to me with all sorts of problems.  What many of them reported to me was that there were things I said that helped them.  Some of the things I said were truths.  Others were thoughts that help people see things in a new way that perhaps is more entertaining, less toxic, and allows for more options.  That is the intent of this piece and those that follow.  If you take this seriously as diet advice, well, you may need more help than I can give over the computer.<\/p>\n<p>And now to the topic of the day: Teflon calories<\/p>\n<p>As you well know, when a woman eats, she adds calories.  These calories conspire to conglomerate on her waist, midriff, stomach and other mentionable and unmentionable areas.  Many women (myself included) don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t even need to eat for these calories to gain a foothold.  Just the smell can add calories.  Walking by a pizza place can make me gain a pound.  Walking past any place that makes French fries can yield two pounds.  Looking in a bakery window one time cost me five pounds.<\/p>\n<p>However, all is not bleak.  There are times when calories become Teflon.  No matter how much they may want to stick, they keep falling off.  Here are some of those times:<\/p>\n<p>1.  You child\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s\/grandchild\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s birthday\u00e2\u20ac\u201d It is well-known that birthday cake of a child or grandchild always contains calories that are Teflon for the mother or grandmother.  It has to do with a very complicated genetic effect caused by the combination of the child\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s blowing out of the candles (let\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not talk about what that does to the cake for the rest of the people) and the mother\/grandmother\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s DNA.  Take it from me.  I am related to a very famous geneticist and I am certain she will vouch for me.<\/p>\n<p>2.  Food that doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t taste good &#8212; If you are as polite (or obsessed with food) as I am, you may sometimes eat something that doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t taste good.  It almost tastes good, but after you eat it, you realize that it didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t and it really wasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t worth the calories.  Well, I have good news for you:  if it didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t taste good, the calories don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t stick.<\/p>\n<p>3.  Food you eat when you are being noble and need some reassurance \u00e2\u20ac\u201c also called \u00e2\u20ac\u0153comfort food,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d usually carbs, the calories don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t stick when you are feeling as if you will take off someone\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s head if you don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t have that ice cream right now or if you can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t write one more word of that paper without a serving of mashed potatoes.  The bad thing is that the calories only become Teflon in true emergencies.  The rest of the time they just pile on and laugh at you as you hope they are ignoring you.<\/p>\n<p>I hope this has helped.  Of course now you understand why I am particularly delighted with the birth of every new grandchild\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are lots of things that are true that most people don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know.
