In for study on overweight populations that didn't exercise. zzzzzz0 -
Cut out all liquid calories. Drink all of the water you want to. Eliminate carbs from your diet. Eat eggs,chicken,fish,turkey,cuts of lean red meat and drop your calories some. three ways to lose weight
1. eat less
2. eat cleaner ( cut out carbs )
3. burn more calories
do all three of these and you will reach your goal.

going by his avatar he looks pretty strong...I'd take advice from him
lol.... strong logic.
1. Who says that's him?
2. There are large and lean guys out there that consume a high large abundance of carbs
3. From a weight perspective I'm smaller than a large portion of the guys in my gym, yet my lift's outperform them
I can go on, but I'm sure you get my point. Anecdotal at best.
harvard study last year took identical calorie diets, but different macro breakdowns. The high carb group lost the least weight. by a good amount too..
Eat less carbs is good advice when people are eating high carb. And when I was training, 100% of my clients all ate high carb. It was astonishing when I got diet sheets back just how unbalanced everyones macro breakdown was. Even when they thought they were eating clean.
High carb means not clean?0 -
Increase weights if you can. Build more muscle, and therefore burn more fat. I am 5'7, and Eat 1800 across the board to loose bodyfat, and 2200, and 2400ish when trying to bulk.0

more bro science.....based on genetics different people respond to different macro ratios for the day. Carbs DO make people retain water weight; however, some people WILL lose faster eating fewer carbs/fat/protein than others simply because their body reacts better to other things. The water weight lost from cutting carbs is barely noticeable, and if you are lifting heavy on a super low carb diet without a refeed day periodically to get back that glycogen (and water weight), you will end up feeling really weak and miserable.
genetics please....put in the work...Train hard...no excuses...we have to find ways around our weaknesses0 -

Clearly you misinterpreted what he had said... he wasn't making an excuse for genetics. He was saying certain macros ratio's effect everyone differently.0
