Interestingly, I believe the latest studies indicate butter & EVOO are
better for you than the substitutes, from a health standpoint.

The other recent studies seem to indicate, ALL, diet & exercise combinations
work if only we would stay with them.

The simple truth is if calories in are less than calories expended we lose
weight if calories in are more than calories expended we gain weight -
keeping in mind the more we weigh the more calories necessary to move our
bodies.
