The Serotonin-Plus Weight Loss Blog: Snacks

Last night we went to a show at Robinson Secondary School, “How To Succeed In Business”.  I saw this on Broadway less than 2 months ago with Nick Jonas and Beau Bridges.   The Broadway production was great.  These kids put on an AMAZING production.  The lead roles, the chorus, the choreography, the orchestra….simply amazing.  I was expecting a less-than summer camp type production with a piano player and highlights from the show.  Not the case.  Kudos in every which way to the kids, the teachers and everyone else involved with this.  So what is Posner going to criticize?  You guessed it: intermission.  Raising money for the drama corp is a great idea but the only “snacks” available were (you guessed it) candy bars and chips.  Why not some fruit?  Healthy protein bars?  Some other choice than Three Musketeer bars, chips and Pepsi?  (well, they did have a few bottles of Diet Coke)  We are so used to “snacking” on all the wrong foods for successful weight loss efforts, and the community, as a whole, should set all of us up for some chance at success and not offering anything at all resembling a “healthy” snack plays into the problem, not being part of the solution.  Once again, to all the drama corp, orchestra, teachers at Robinson:  What a phenomenal performance!!!!
