^^^^^^^^^ It might be. My grandfather ate plenty of both and lived to be 89. I don’t know if it makes any difference, but my wife makes almost everything from scratch. Even if it’s a treat, like a cake, she’ll never use a boxed mix. | |||

This is totally true!!!!! I tried the low fat diet, thought it would help you lose weight. Tried to do it different ways for 25 years - then I read "Eat Bacon, Don't Jog: Get Strong. Get Lean. No Bullshit." Since I began to follow this logic, I've lost 45 pounds and feel better than I felt in years. I have been following this for nearly 2 years - my cholesterol has not gone up, zero blood pressure increase. In fact, my Dr. had said I was pre-diabetic, that has also gone away - no bad side effects whatsoever. Its all been good - I get to eat foods I like a lot and I'm never hungry and don't feel any cravings. Eat Bacon, Don't Jog: Get Strong. Get Lean. No Bullshit.This message has been edited.

And people have gotten the same results on vegan diets. There is no "one way" to eat healthy and lose weight. The problem is people who find a method that works for them and then proclaim, "It worked for ME so it MUST work for EVERYONE! EVERYTHING ELSE is BS!"

While what you say is true to an extent, there's science behind why diets high in carbohydrates, particularly refined carbohydrates, results in fat gain and obesity.

This has been called many things over many years. Now it's "no sugar, no grain" NSNG. The point is to get your body to get it's energy from burning fat, not carbs. Carbs/sugar burning takes a lot of energy (why we get the post lunch slump after Burger King). Google Vinnie Tortorich. — Pissed off beats scared every time… - Frank Castle | |||

He'll also tell you that Calories In Calories Out is bullshit. I've lost 73 lbs over the past 2 years on LCHF/NSNG doing fuckall for exercise and probably eating WAY too much. If I had any semblance of willpower to control my food intake and/or get off my lazy ass, I'd be MUCH closer to my goal, if not there already. It is about what you are eating, far more than it is about how much you are eating. | |||

Intermittent fasting works for me. 16 hour fast with 8 hours of eating. Has worked wonders and is relatively easy to follow. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ | |||

The guy behind the guy |
For two years now I have cut cut out refined sugars, simple carbohydrates and exercise 6 days a week. I'm the "best shape of my life at 40" guy now  It started by watching "That Sugar Film" on night on Netflix. It shocked me and caused me to do a lot of internet research. My conclusion was no more sugar and no more simple carbohydrates. I had always worked out though. My transformation has been nothing short of amazing. My fat % and blood work is the best it's been since I've been an adult (again, I'm 40). It has been great for me and I never want to go back to eating that stuff. | |||

It is like a programmable combo lock, especially for mere fat loss. You can program it with many combos that will work. Most people just care about shrinking external dimensions...any "diet" will do...then you'll statistically just gain it all back and more within a year because you didn't change, just followed a "diet" for awhile. When it comes to health/proper nutrition, there are still a number of different combinations that will work (and many that won't). As you move toward an extreme, the combo gets tougher to get the right nutrients in the right quantities. As an example, Veganism is hard to get the essential fatty acids (building blocks of hormones) and amino acids (building blocks of everything else) that primarily come from animals. There are some proven facts, we don't need carbs (our bodies can make glycogen and ketones from fatty acids and protein). Gluten and dairy aren't healthy even if you can tolerate them. Eat at least 80% whole foods and very little of sugar, processed, deep fried, dairy and you'll be OK. The details of Paleo vs. Vegan vs. South Beach vs low fat, low carb/keto etc. aren't as important as first ditching all the crap and eating primarily whole foods. “People have to really suffer before they can risk doing what they love.” –Chuck Palahnuik Be harder to kill: https://preparefit.ck.page | |||

This is absolutely correct, except that I would say NO sugar, period. | |||
