    Why?

    breakfast is fry time :D frys are low carb


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 979 ✭✭✭Bruno26


    My caloric intake for weight maintenance is 3,000 calories. If I ate 20g of carbs, 100g of protein and 3,000 calories from fat would I;

    A. gain weight
    B. lose weight
    C maintain weight?

    One letter answer will suffice

    D. Fat loss

    Have you finished your reading yet?

    Yes.

    None of the articles you've linked show or even purport to show that anyone can lose fat in a caloric surplus. Have you started reading yet?

    What in the name of jebus is the point in this thread??

    What possible use is it to the average obese joe on to the street that he needs to keep his hormones in check to lose weight?? "that insulin be wreckin you brah"

    So what if it plays a role? So does the mountain of sh!te he eats and the hours he spends sitting on his arse trolling on boards

    Which is gonna be easier for him do?? Learn how to sort out his hormones??

    Or just move a bit more, get up and walk around, interact with people, develop social skills that will allow him to form meaningful arguments in order to get his point across and not just blindly follow the most recent rant on marksdailyapple without really understanding it or the research behind it

    You're very confused.

    It plays a role in making him fat because of the mountain of **** he eats.

    You don't sort out your hormones. You sort out the food you eat.

    You cannot out exercise a bad diet.

    You then essentially say why learn about the role of insulin but then you go and follow some rant but don't do the research into why you do it. Very contradictory.

    I'd need to know the weight of the person- under or over. The foods they are eating, the time frame. Someone may put weight on easily while another person may struggle to put weight on. To be honest I'm more interested in losing fat / maintaining weight than someone bulking with this method. Hard to say but they may need to eat lots of starch veg and fruit if they want to put weight on.
    They are neither under of over weight, lets say a BMI of 23, 75kg, 14% Bodyfat. ie, smack bang in them middle of normal all around. They put on and lose weight at a normal rate.

    Lets say daily energy needs are 2,500cals
    The eat 3,000 cals daily. All real food, meats veg, eggs, dairy etc.
    225g Protein (30%)
    167g Fat (50%)
    150g Carbs (20%)

    They lift heavy stuff, run short distances fast, and jump onto and over stuff.
    Killing animal's with spears is kept to a minimum. Animals should be hunted and killed for food when ever possible
    Animal edit for generic

    Those studies clearly show its the hormonal model.
    If the third group was in calorie deficit, even though they were unrestricted, then its reinforces the energy model.

    A piece of literary genius, in decades people will be going on to forums and using your books where the should be using scientific articles!

    It was believable until I saw the amount of protein and inadequate numbers of animals speared.

    I never mentioned fat.

    I said would their weight increase, decrease or stay the same?

    Same or slight increase if they are of normal weight.

    Bruno26 has sidetracked so many threads on this forum with the same mantra - 150g of carbs per day or less is all you need to worry about. Eat less, lose fat. Overall calorie intake is irrelevant.

    In every single thread he has never explained why 150g is the magic number.

    Every single thread ends the same way - dragging the argument into edge cases that no one really cares about.

    .

    I've explained it numerous times. It limits insulin production- this is why low carb works.

    It's called offering an alternative viewpoint.

    Alternative viewpoints are to be encouraged I believe but you need a decent amount of evidence to back them up. That you don't have.

    6 links provided yesterday concluding low carb approach is best.

    If a group of people consumed 60-70% of their calories as carbohydrate for life would they be lean/overweight/obese?

    If a such a group of people existed and weren't fat but lean and in rude health, where does that leave your 150g a day mantra?

    Articles are not evidence. Studies are evidence.

    Otherwise my Masters would be a lot easier.

    Bruno26,

    Nothing I have ever seen from you talks about 150g.
    Low Carb is not a vague description. 150g is exact.

    What happens the body below 150g that causes fat loss?

    Is there a formula that can be applied assuming that 150g is for an average person and as we know, no one is truly average?
    What should my limit be?

    I said links (should have said links to studies). You called them articles- go back and check.

    so we've gone from eat what you like and you can't get fat. to maximum 150g of carbs to whatever works for you.

    It explains the theory, but doesnt prove it works!
