When your body starves, it goes into sleep mode and conserves energy like a boss.

If you want to lose weight, consume less and work out.

If you are fasting, you’re not on a calorie restricted diet at all. You’re just not eating. It’s different and has different effects on the body.

Also, you cannot argue with results, and there have been results.

Taxes coming due in April. Need to start saving for that. Trying to put about $1000 a month into money market right now so that maybe we can save to move to a better town eventually.

I've been effectively carnivore for 16 months, I am my age 21 weight for the last 9 months and can bench 300 pounds.

There is very little to no scientific experiments on human nutrition that is well controlled. It is completely captured by industry. If you can't tell that from this then you are mentally deficient:

Carnivore is a very easy self experiment.

I lost 45 pounds in 7 months and I posted my weight chart here 8 months ago to prove it. I was doing NO exercise because the fucking jab destroyed my shoulders and I couldn't lift. I never do cardio.

I recover fast from lifting. I can literally lift every day on a 3 day split and never over train. I went 14 days straight without missing a workout in January.

Got off BP meds.

Lowered my A1C from 5.9 to 4.8.

I can fast effortlessly because I'm a picture of metabolic health.

If I gave up alcohol I'd probably look like a fitness model.

Lmao

Nice anecdotes by the way.

I weigh the same as I did in high school. Wear a 32 waist pant size, and don’t have a fucking 500 apoB like you lol.

Also, “eat only meat because it’s what a caveman ate” is an utterly retarded diet heuristic. You’re truly an NPC.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5287916&forum_id=2#45914795)

Mostly, it's just a mechanism to reduce energy intake. You can't possible eat as many calories when only eating meat so, yeah, you're gonna lose weight.

Also, If you eat dozens or hundreds of different foods in a week and a couple of those are causing inflammation or other health problems, when you cut 99% of them all at once, you'll probably see some immediate health benefits. It's not that you're eating only meat, it's just that you happened to cut out a couple of the really bad foods for you.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5287916&forum_id=2#45914935)

"you just can't eat that much meat" yeah there may be something to eating nutritionally dense foods and not needing excess empty calories

But it’s not. CICO is garbage pseudoscience/myth that the food companies use to tell us it’s okay to feed our kids Eggo Waffles in the morning before school.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5287916&forum_id=2#45914473)

CICO is real, but it's a long-term thing and fluctuations in water weight will easily mask day to day trends.

How has that worked out you dumb turtle you?

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5287916&forum_id=2#45917548)

if you're fat and don't move much during the day, at most you're losing a pound, tops. worse yet, it's probably muscle and not fat

you need to run a small caloric deficit and lift heavy

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5287916&forum_id=2#45914596)

you dont see fat people walking out of viet prison camps or something. Not even once. Eat like a POW camp guard is feeding you ("here's some rice, fuck off") and you WILL lose weight, massively.

you can be hungry all the time, for months, or you can remain fat. Sucks, but those are the options.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5287916&forum_id=2#45914668)

its this kind of sophistry that makes this whole thing dumbly complicated

eat a nazi concentration camp diet. eat a viet pow diet. eat an ethiopia in the 80s diet. you think it's "hard" for 90% of humanity to lose weight?

if some prison guard were in charge of disco fries, and honestly didnt give a shit if he died, disco fries would lose so much weight in 6 months he'd be unrecognizable. not complicated

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5287916&forum_id=2#45914741)

I wonder when they will notice.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5287916&forum_id=2#45914756)

Remember, it's your thought process that got you in this mess. you need to either accept the suffering of completely changing your thought process, or the suffering of remaining fat.

the first suffering ends, the second does not.

Eat something nutritious and simple and plentiful every day, like a little rice and an egg and water, like a political prisoner in cuba might get.

Never take breaks, never take cheat days. Walk, walk, walk everywhere you can. Climb stairs.

Its 10000% you will lose weight drastically and everyone will notice.

Down the road, when youre at goal weight, you can start thinking about how to eat normal again. Now, youre a POW

Its much easier to not eat shit if those 1000 "calories" (which are not a measure of energy available to humans) are beef than sugar. Beef is satiating and fills you up. Sugar spikes your insulin, puts you to sleep, then makes you hungry again two hours later and your willpower is shot.

January - 11 meals, 740 hours of fasting

February - 4 meals, 214 hours of fasting

954 hours of fasting / 24 hours = 39.75 days of fasting

So 15 total meals this year. 2 of those meals came in the same day as another meal (no fast in between), so in other words, I have broken the year thus far up into 13 fasts.

Eat an omelette for breakfast. Eat a chicken breast or salmons filet for lunch. Eat another chicken breast or salmon filet for dinner along with some vegetables. Mix in a protein shake if you’re trying to preserve muscle mass (250 calories for 50g protein). Just do exactly that for 6 months and report back. It’s not difficult it just takes discipline.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5287916&forum_id=2#45914949)

15 large meals of 1500 calories = 22,500 calories

30,000 > 22,500

Also, with the 15 large meals, you’ll never feel hungry whereas with the 120 small meals you will always feel hungry and may in fact killself.

Calories are a measure of heat energy idiot. Humans use chemical energy.

You suggestion is way too low in fat, you know the building block of every hormone and cell in your body.

Your suggestion takes "discipline" because you're advocating for starvation.

Apart from that look at whole plant based food. You can eat that kind of stuff forever and you'll simply fill yourself up before you have any chance to take in excess energy. That's not to say go all in vegan, just that filling up on vegetables never put weight on anyone.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5287916&forum_id=2#45915782)

Eating plants your stomach will be full of shit you can't digest and you will be gassy and take huge dumps and you will be hungry and fixated on food all the time

whereas if you eat as much eggs and beef as you want, if you're overweight you will lose weight and never be hungry and not shit 12 pounds and not fart nonstop.

People itt who disagree just don’t want to hear it. The only way to gain fat is to consume carbs. Not one of these assholes will do a 2,500-3,000 calorie zero-carb diet for three to five days to prove you wrong by proving that they can gain weight without carbs.

They can’t.

CICO is a law of nature.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5287916&forum_id=2#45917830)

but a human body is not like a car where the gas is fuel that is burned whenever it's active. you're right, the body is much more complicated than that. you can have drank a lot of water or taken a huge shit. it's not like your body's weight fluctuates instantly in real time based on consumption and activity. but over time it will. you can't escape it, the science is undeniable.

also, bodies process different calories and foods differently. not everyone is going to get the same caloric energy from the same foods. no one is going to process calories 100% efficiently.
