It's literally basic math. Your body needs energy to live and perform any function at all, and calories are the measure of that energy.

Now, for just life processes, normally you'll burn about 2000 calories. If you eat 2000 calories worth of food, then you'll maintain equilibrium. No weight gain, no weight loss. But if exercise and burn another 500 calories on top of that, wheres the extra 500 calories gonna come from if you only ate 2000? Stupid tumblr dumbasses.

And yes, there are other things to consider like how much sugar and macronutrients your getting, but "calories in, calories out" is an effective measure for how to gain/lose weight.

I remember when I was fixing my diet, I had intense cravings for fried potatoes. Chips, fries and hash browns because that's what I mostly ate. I started making plans about relapsing or what I'd eat when the month was over. At the end of the month though, I just didn't care about them anymore because the cravings were gone. Started eating them again because I need more calories to bulk up but I don't crave them

You're right on theory wrong with your generalized 2k a day prescription that's just an average but every person is a unique point on that average based on many factors an individuals maintenance kcal intake could vary anywhere between 1.5k to upwards of 3k. Its a good place to start because its an average but you should also track your weight over the course of months and tweak intake as needed. When people skip the more tedious step of hammering down their particular maintenance allotment is where they run into trouble. It could be that you're really close to the average so you've never had this problem. I'm a manlet and because I have a smaller frame I simply do not need as many kcals as taller people.

It's not hard. Wanting a cookie and thinking eating a rice cake is going to satisfy you is kind of weird though, you should either just only have a cookie occasionally and stop eating if you're not really hungry.

I wonder if anyone will ever come up with 0 calorie food that actually tastes good though, that would really help most people lose weight.

The whole point of the exercise of fasting is to condition a new habit over the dependence on food you created. Food should always be simple and should only be eaten when you're hungry.

You definitely don't need healthy eating habits to not be fat. Two totally different topics. I've been between underweight and the low end of normal weight my entire life and my mom never cooked when I was a kid with all our meals coming from eating out at restaurants, pizza delivery, chinese food takeout, fast food, etc. All that's required to not be fat is to stop being a gluttonous piece of shit who eats too much. It's that simple. Stop abusing food like it's a recreational drug. It's not even that enjoyable as far as drugs go. Definitely very far below the pleasure of an opiate high.

"Today makes 60 days since I went on a Zero Carb diet!

You know those thin people who can always decline their favorite desserts, or not eat the free samples at the grocery store? I know people, but I most certainly was never one of them- until now!

Food no longer rules my life!

I seriously no longer think about my next meal all day long! I just eat (meat and eggs only) until I’m satisfied or full, then I don’t eat anything at all for many hours (often 8-12 hours) because I’m satisfied from my last meal.

I no longer care about recipes, having to list and buy ingredients for some food concoction I want to make, counting points or calories, entering my macros, nor do I longingly think of the next gathering or party I’m going to because of the food I’ll eat (Cake, anyone?)

I believe I have broken my food addiction!

My skin looks better than ever. My joints no longer ache with arthritis, the bloated belly, tummy aches, constant gas, constipation and pain are all gone!

My weight is steadily decreasing while my body is reshaping and putting on muscle and bone mass. My body is definitely restructuring and the fat parts are shrinking! Gone from an 18 to a 12 so far!

Before you ask, I did do labs as a plant based (vegan) dieter, and compared them to just one month of ZC and yes, there were marked favorable improvements in important things like Triglyceride/Hdl ratio and HgbA1C!

And I have discovered that “zero carb Zen” is a real thing! My normally anxious ADHD mind feels calm and settled and it is a new feeling for me.

I don’t think about food anymore. The thought comes along, “do I have meat at home to eat for the next few days?” And if the answer is, “yes.” I move on to thinking about other things and then just have a steak when I get home.

I know I used to think that plants were the source of ALL good health, but now I believe that plants are medicine, and just like one can be allergic to some medicines, one can be allergic/sensitive to plant foods and never do a full elimination diet to see how good it could feel to be plant free.

Hey, with all the science coming out today, it may be worth a shot to try something seemingly unconventional for once and just see what you think and how you truly FEEL physically.

People should realize that the arrowheads that are found throughout the world from tribal civilizations were used to hunt for food. They certainly weren’t used for shooting at root vegetables! Agriculture and farming as we know it is a relatively new idea. Humans haven’t always had access to plant foods, but we all know and accept that they were all big-game hunters!

I can’t even explain what it feels like to have the food monkey off my back!

Thank you to people who have encouraged and supported us these past 60 days!

I’m a 57 year old male who is physically active. Until three months ago, I would eat anything I wanted A quart of ice cream or a dozen cookies in a sitting? Full steam ahead. Problem was, I had reached 280lbs and began to have knee pain and sciatic trouble, in addition to the sleep apnea, heartburn, diarrhea, and general lethargy I had grown accustomed to.

I decided to ignore the nay-sayers and accept myself for what I am, a carnivore. I am the product of a million years of evolution – the bulk of which time my species ate virtually only meat. It’s only intuitive that we should be awash in type 2 diabetes, heart disease and obesity when we glut our diet with things we were never designed to metabolize.

I’ve dropped to 254lbs, apnea is much better, heartburn and etc. are gone, and my energy level seems elevated.

I’m free and out of the closet, and all I can say to the flower children who advocate vegetarianism is, don’t let your cat out at night, because if the time ever comes when I cannot lay my hands on a beautifully marbled rib steak, all bets are off.

I tried it for 90 days and based on the positive results, I’ve decided to keep going. I ate 99% beef for the majority of this time, a little chicken, lamb, pork, fish. I failed a few times before getting the hang of it and have been strict for 90 days.

List of health issues:
* IBS (Mostly fixed)
* Depressions and Anxiety (virtually gone)
* Circulation (about the same)
* Dry Skin / pimples (lessened but variable)
* Fatigue (variable to IBS flare ups. Improved recently with D3 supplementation)
* Inflammation or general body pains (variable but improved)

Performance

It took me 6 weeks to adapt properly. Before that I would feel worn out halfway through my workout or shift. It was like I had a smaller gas tank and once I hit a point my body just wanted to rest.

I lost roughly 3-4kgs eating as much as I like. Caloric intake varied between 2,500 and 3,500 depending on how I felt. I would mostly eat two meals a day within an 8-10 hour window. After week 2 food cravings had subsided, what I used to think was hunger was really carbohydrate cravings. It’s no wonder your mood stabilizes on zero-carb/keto.

My strength in the gym has not been impacted. As long as my energy is ok then performance is good as ever. The weight-loss has lowered my body-fat % and I’m at my leanest (69-70kg). I’m very happy about my physique.

I feel more focused and driven as long as I’m not in a fatigued state. Fatigue had been ruling me some of the time but supplementing D3 has helped tremendously. I work evenings and we’ve just come into Spring, so it only makes sense. The mental clarity and lack of depression/anxiety is enough to keep me going with this diet. I don’t know whether to accredit that to ketogenesis, low inflammation, low allergy, nutrient dense animal foods or all of it.

Key Lessons

Adaptation takes 100% commitment.
You will fail. Try again.
6 weeks strict is a minimum to test results.
Never make more than one change at a time. Stick to the foods you set.
Be cautious of rendered fat. Too much results in diarrhea for some people.
Be cautious of eating too close to bed time.
Keep a diary. Track your symptoms and food consumption every day."

Pretty unlikely actually. Vast majority of diabetics are type 2, and 90% of type 2 diabetics are overweight. Excuse making fat people love to focus on the minority of non-fat diabetics (who incidentally probably only became normal weight after pissing it all out before ending up in a hospital when their ability to process sugar first crashed on them) because it lets them believe weight doesn't matter as much as it clearly does.
Hypertension's less of a stretch, it's more like 50% that are overweight or obese there. But if you're obese you only have something like a 14% chance of not having hypertension. So again it's missing the point pretty badly if you take that information and think "normal weight people get it too." That's like justifying your cigarette smoking habit by pointing out non-smokers get lung cancer too and ignoring the massive risk multiplier smoking constitutes.

Not at all, incorrect. These aren't food preferences, it's in these people's DNA to metabolize carbs better than other people. Someone from a long bloodline of farmers is going to digest grains better than someone from a long bloodline of hunters / herders.

>Energy expenditure and body composition changes after an isocaloric ketogenic diet in overweight and obese men.
>The carbohydrate-insulin model of obesity posits that habitual consumption of a high-carbohydrate diet sequesters fat within adipose tissue because of hyperinsulinemia and results in adaptive suppression of energy expenditure (EE). Therefore, isocaloric exchange of dietary carbohydrate for fat is predicted to result in increased EE, increased fat oxidation, and loss of body fat. In contrast, a more conventional view that "a calorie is a calorie" predicts that isocaloric variations in dietary carbohydrate and fat will have no physiologically important effects on EE or body fat.
>CONCLUSION: The isocaloric KD was not accompanied by increased body fat loss but was associated with relatively small increases in EE that were near the limits of detection with the use of state-of-the-art technology.

Your argument is seriously now going to be that macronutrient composition magically matters for caloric surplus and weight gain when it has no impact on caloric deficit and weight loss?
>>11674022
>You're telling me that if I literally filled my stomach on nothing but broccoli I'd get fat?
No, nobody claimed that. It's the calories that matter. The fact you "filled your stomach" with something says absolutely nothing about calories. If you instead asked "I can literally eat the same amount of calories in broccoli as in twinkies and it would have the same impact on weight?" Then that'd be the right question, and the answer would be "yes, it would."
A pound of broccoli would only be 153 calories because over 90% of it is water and a substantial portion of what isn't water is indigestible cellulose fiber. That doesn't mean it's better for "your metabolism," it means you're putting a large volume of non-food (water and fiber) into your stomach and non-food doesn't have calories.

B) Here's my reply to that post:

C) Here's the reply about broccoli (and again, I don't care which anon posted it, that's irrelevant since he's replying to a post that was specifically disputing the claim about "metabolizing better"):
>>11674022
D) And here's the reply to that post where I mention how a food like broccoli being mostly water and indigestible cellulose doesn't mean it's better for "your metabolism," it just means you're consuming way fewer calories than you would with most other food and are predictably going to lose more weight by eating way fewer calories than if you instead ate way more calories:
>>11674070
I didn't write that the anon asking about broccoli said anything about metabolism nor did I try to claim he and the anon I initially responded to were the same person. He replied to a post that had a context, and I referenced that context. That's all. And if he didn't mean to say anything about metabolism then his question about broccoli doesn't have anything to do with the post he replied to, so not sure what you're even trying to establish here other than a lazy and not even true semantic snipe attempt.

We have several very good, and recent, studies that have been done which concluded that the metabolic rate between different people varies very little. In other words, the assertion that some people have an unusually fast metabolism or others have a slow metabolism is pretty much bullshit. Unless we're talking lottery-winner rare people, most people's metabolic rate is the same, regardless of diet.

>> No.11674155

>>11674147
Also, the caloric values we have for food (4 cals/g for protein and carbs, 8 for fat, and 7 for alcohol) already take into account the human digestive process. Those numbers are not the energy the food contains in a strict scientific sense, like you would get if you measured the food in a bomb calorimeter. Rather those number take into account how human digestion works. They are called Atwater factors, named after the researcher who calculated them based on studying human beings. So when you read that "protein is 4 cals/gram" that's the effective yield to the human body after human digestive processes are accounted for.

Macronutrient composition doesn't matter for impact on bodyweight when calories are kept equal between two differently composed calorie sources. I don't know what you're trying to get at here, it's pretty simple. You do realize this is the entire point of the modern trend for listing calories on all packaged foods, right? The calories tell you, independent of what kind of food you're eating, a very good idea of how much energy you're going to get from it. And when you have that sense of bottom line food energy amounts you can very accurately control your own body's weight.

It makes perfect sense. It would be inexplicable nonsense it didn't work that way. At a fundamental level, after food is broken down and digested, you end up with a base unit of food energy called "calories." It's the same concept as being able to see the US dollar amount for goods and services. Is the service of a taxi driver taking you to an airport a similar thing to a pair of pants? It might not seem that way, but you could in fact interpret them as fundamentally identical in terms of *cost* if both require the same $20 payment. Are two or three servings of broccoli a similar thing to a can of soda? It might not seem that way at first, but you could in fact interpret them as fundamentally identical in terms of *energy* if both provide the same 150 calories.
