You’re not allowed to say that here.
FReepers will jump on you that it’s simply “calorie in/calorie out”
Carbs are a big deal AND lack of certain vitamins. Refined sugars and HFCS are awful. Whole grains need to be championed too (carbs are better if some get pooed out)
If it were just calorie in/calorie out, everyone would be thin.
YES....I know.....but, I think the more protein you eat, the less calories you consume.....cause, you aren’t hungry! What’s amazing is a year ago my doc told me to try the Caveman Diet...cause I complained of being hungry all the time.....I also added 1500mg Niacin (the REAL kind) aned 1500mg Niacinamide to my daily vitamin regimen...and my HDL is NOW 112.....my HDL/chol ration is almost 2:1...which he recently told me is UNHEARD of.....so, I don’t buy into the “don’t eat meat/fat” crowd. But, I also think individuals have to find what works for them....oatmeal leaves me hungry by 10am....if I eat 2 eggs with some other fat....I’m good till past noon. Oh, and I can still wear the clothes I wore 25 years ago, pretty much...that said....I’m heading to Costco and craving a Yogurt Strawberry Sundae....and I will have it for lunch!
Burn more energy than you consume and you will lose weight. Nothing else matters.....unless someone has repealed the laws of thermodynamics, anyway.
