It doesn't appear to me that he misunderstood. He said his weight would go up. Others told him that it wouldn't hinder his weight loss, in those statements no one was referring to "water weight". In the end though "water weight" is still weight. He was not saying fat loss, he said weight.

I feel he would know best how different foods effect his body. If he has found that eating at a caloric deficit he still struggles to lose weight when he includes certain items, then that is true for him. It doesn't need to be true for anyone else.

I don't think you read the entire thread. And word games are just silly. If you tell someone bread will slow down your weight loss, most people are going to assume it affects their actual weight, not that what he secretly means is that it might make you retain water. I don't care what Don eats, but I care when he tells other people what they should eat and he loves to tell people not to eat bread.

He got asked if he thinks it's fat gain or water weight or what and he said he guesses it's a slowdown of metabolism, which he then tried to somehow "prove" by eating bread with a bunch of other stuff and then measuring his weight the next day, which I can't even begin to explain on how many levels that was stupid, well I kinda already did with my "eat 10 pounds of lettuce and you're 10 pounds heavier" post. See, CICO is BS! Lettuce has barely any calories but I got huge from eating lettuce!!!1

These forums are all about word games.

Ultimately the people looking for the advice will take from it what they want. I don't think it's wrong of him to relate his experience with certain foods, just because others may disagree.

I tend to over indulge. Having two warm oven fresh dinner rolls with butter is about 1/3 of my daily calories....and I'd still be hungry. It isn't a very good choice for weight loss for me.

I agree with u.

yeah... No they don't. Excess calories are what cause weight gain.

I love bread. I mean LOVE but I always feel crappy after eating it. For about a day or two... I still lose weight but do not lose AS MUCH as I do when I keep my bread intake low. That's MY body... I have no insulin issues.

It's so strange to me that folks here really expect everyone to have the same exact results. Like there's no variation in how different bodies process foods?

Calorie surplus makes you fat , not carbs ..

Well all, i decided to do a two day experiment, yesterday i had 4 dinner rolls and a sandwich with wheat bread and subway the day before for lunch and a hamburger. Two days ago i was 178 and today was 175. So apparently, bread turbo charges my metabolism. Oh and btw i pretty much have a p28 protein bagel with peanut butter daily.

Have you ever considered that you might have an allergy to wheat or something. Generally, pain for a few days after could indicate something isnt working.

MrM, I log everything I eat and burn. I do this for me, not for you or other members.
