1). I've seen a "Freaky Eater" episode recently and the female doctor said that if you eat sugar you specifically gain fat around the midline aka stomach. Is this true? I know fat distributes itself but does sugar cause more fat to be stored in the middle?
2). Is it true that working out early in the morning boosts your metabolism?

1) No. Genetics plays a role in where your body stores fat.
2) No.7 -

1. No, 2. No, however exercise in the morning does make *ME* feel more alert for the rest of the day. So while there might not be any added physical calorie burn versus exercise before bed, it does give me a mental boost which in turn, may energize me to do more during the day which turns into a physical boost.11

No.. I actually ate quite a bit of sugar while gaining 15lbs on my last bulk, I did not gain a lot of fat and my waist stayed fairly slim.
No. Workout whatever time of day best fits your schedule and works best for your performance10 -

I have a different result from exercise. Working out in the morning works well for me because I find if I work out at night I have trouble sleeping.
Calorie burn is the same.7 -

I can be curious and ask a question without feeling *entitled* to an answer.
I don't think anyone is arguing that OP is obligated to tell us whether or not they apologized to their mother for calling her "stupid." But OP *chose* to tell us that they consider their mother "stupid" and therefore made it "our business." It's not like we crept up to their house and eavesdropped on an argument between the two of them.23 -

Where in this thread did OP mention his mother again. It’s not topic related so it doesn’t matter, send a private message if you care that much. Period.24 -

If you don't feel it's related, you're free to refrain from discussing it.24 -
1. nope. (and if the woman you're referring to is Gillian McKeith, she's a total crock.)
2. exercise burns the same number of calories regardless of the time of day
Oh god, is she still around? The MFP 'kittens' would be everywhere if I posted what I truly thought of that woman. And she is most definitely not a doctor.9 -

Is she the one that asks people to poop in a Tupperware tub then she sniffs it and tells them they're eating the wrong things? Then shows them a big pile of the wrong things...meaning she could have skipped the poo sniffing part altogether?

lol that woman is the personification of Woo. Just a walking, talking woo button
I Googled her (hadn't heard of her) and I was not disappointed. One of the first results was a Youtube Video titled "F off Gillian McKeith"5 -

Yes...
What's the cut off? 8 am is technically after midnight. So is one in the afternoon. Does this mean I have to cut out all sugar? Is this a ploy to force me to do keto?

. Most of us work out first thing in the morning..because if we don't.. we never will. so yeah.. it works wonders!
As for sugar.. if you eat a lot of sugar you just might get fat ..and 9 times out of ten.. it will land on your stomach especially if you eat every day and binge on it.. many times over and over for a long time.
these are my genius additions to the article.
