The title is misleading. Being a person who had severe digestive issues for 6-12 months. I did my research on the subject. Gut health is probably the most critical part for the human body to function properly.
I agree. I had equivalent issues and found out through a nutritionist, doctor, and great PTs that the only way to fight these issues is with a good diet first - a nutritional program. Not just eating less than what you expend - there's a real difference there.
CICO, metabolics, dietary formulation (program), and training (program). Wish I followed it when I was in my 20s more. I know I have much to look forward to knowing what I know now.
You can't outrun a bad diet - maybe if you are in your 20s, but try hitting 40 and beyond. CICO just exemplifies the rest. Calories In (what kind of calorie) and Calories Out (what are you doing). That's a loaded monster right there.
Yes I have as I have family with issues and I wanted to help them out...so I did some research.
As for the bolded...nutritionist pft...I can get an online course and get a certificate in a weekend, Doctors receive appx 24 hours of nutritional education through out medical school unless they specialize, http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2430660/
And PT's well okay but they shouldn't be giving out nutritional advice as they are not RD's.
CICO...that's it...not the kinds of calories....quality is good but quantity is what leads to weight loss/gain.
The person I consulted had a Masters degree from an internationally-accredited university and over 10 years of success. All of them gave out the same advice in the end when you bottom-line it - you can't outrun a bad diet. Eat right and you will succeed - that's the long-term vision and it works. Works for me.
You can't outrun a bad diet. Plain and simple.
You can't outrun a bad diet means that the exercise you do won't burn enough calories to make all the extra calories you stuff into your face disappear.
And it doesn't matter if he's got a master's degree. Unless it's in nutrition he might as well be a plumber when it comes to nutrition.
@tedboosalis7 actually has the correct understanding of that statement.0 -

To have long term success it has to be more than weighing , measuring and wearing fitbits around or you will gain your weight back.
The interesting thing about bringing up long term success rates - is that evidently nothing works long term. So why even bother - pack up and go home
And to the other gentlemen, I double dog dare you to eat 1500 cals of broccoli a day for a year.

Oh Pu, dear Pu. Tell me how my gut bacteria can create energy out of nothing to make me fat when I'm not at a surplus.
Eat 1500 calories of cake for a year and come back and tell us how you really feel. The reason you won't is because you know that can't work. I double dare you.
and there is the strawman argument….because no one eats a diet of 100% cake...
I'd like to...
honestly, I think that would get boring. I would miss bagels, eggs, bacon, pasta, bread, ice cream, etc.

From the articleFifteen thousand years ago, man regularly ate around 150 ingredients in a week.
Nowadays, most people consume fewer than 20 separate food items, and many — if not most — of these are artificially refined, says Professor Spector.

Sure lets look at these 20 foods and see how many ingredients they have.For ten days, Tom, a student, went on a diet exclusively of Chicken McNuggets and Big Macs, washed down with McFlurry ice cream desserts and regular Cokes.

Nope - it all starts with diet. If you eat wrong, then you will be wrong.
You are wrong. Also, you refuse to take me up on the challenge. As a former chocolatier, I already did my time. Time for you to do yours.
This sounds like the challenge creationists give biologists. "Show me a cat giving birth to a dog and I'll accept evolution!"0 -

Exactly my point. You didn't. That's the point I am making. Did you not see that above. I really really doubt it. You didn't.
But from now on - I want you to eat 1500 calories of cake/day for a year. That's it. You can't have anything else. I want to know what you will look and feel like after one year.
Nobody on here will do it. It's obvious why - if you did - you wouldn't be healthy and fit even with exercise. There would be things going wrong that would uproot your exercise regimen and your health.

Better yet - eat McDonalds ONLY for ONE year. No salads - just their core foods, burgers, fried foods - ONE year - and come back and tell us how you really feel - WITH blood work - before and after. I double dare you.
Looky at this...a full day at McDonalds within Maitenance, hitting my Macros...and I get ice cream too...Yah. Notice that is 2 wraps cause I get hungry at night...

Go eat 1500 calories of nothing but broccoli for a year and then let's compare each other's bloodwork then. Always need a control group. I'd prefer the year of nothing but McDonalds though.0 -

So answer me this, since you're so deadset on fear mongering: how is it that over the course of a year I managed to lose fifty five pounds while eating things I still enjoy (cake, ice cream, fast food) and still remain in optimal health? I've been to the doctor recently and found zero problems (aside from my genetically high blood pressure, which is actually slightly reduced for the first time since I was sixteen).
Besides, define "bad diet." Ever heard of a "balanced diet"?
