Does quality of food matter if you remain within calories?

Yes, you are kind of a big deal

Ok, so your BMR is 1707, do you think it STAYS at that ? and eating less will cause a permanent deficit ?, it will create a deficit for about two weeks, then you will hit a plateau because your 1707 BMR WILL drop to just under what you are eating per day. If you DO take my challenge however, eating MORE than you need will A: RAISE your metabolic rate and thermogenisis (only 1 of the 5 ways we burn calories btw) B: your body will utilize more of the excess calories to build and repair muscle and the body in general, C: it costs 10% roughly of what you eat just to digest the food so you end up with only 90% at most.ok, I dare you to experiment, if you eat "real food", and balanced meals, eat only enough grams of carbs a day to replenish glycogen lost, INCREASE everything else besides carbs, eat as much as u can, do HIIT cardio and lift and I promise the more food you eat the leaner you will get. will you take this challenge ? prob not, fear will likely stop you from trusting me.
I have a BMR of 1707 (determined through an oxygen consumption test) so no, of course I'm not going to take on your "challenge" and eat 2500+ calories because I know damn well I will gain weight- whether I eat whole foods or junk food.
By the way, I already eat strictly whole foods (Mediterranean diet, low carb, moderate protein, moderate fat) due to insulin resistance and hypoglycemia.
In other words, your theory has been debunked.
your body ramps UP fat burning enzymes and hormones. result is you WILL lose more fat than before and perform better. calories are no different that water, you drink more you piss more out, drink less, you retain more. like I said, its called a "Negative Feedback Loop". think of it as a fire, you are feeding your fire less fuel than it needs to keep burning hot, it gets smaller and less hot, the metabolism does the same thing. see, you all think that your BMR remains the same no matter your calorie intake, this is not true, the body will try to match by lowing or raising it. so you will lose fat AND muscle tissue until your BMR is say 1200, then you stop losing and can actually gain/retain body fat and lose more muscle. its sad that no one really understand this. 0 -

No, eating junk while staying within your calorie goal will not hinder your progress when ti comes to calories in/calories out.Well, today there was a social outing kind of thing and I unfortunately ate cookies, sweetened cinnamon bread, few chips, and a big bite of chocolate bundt cake. I also had a lot of (whole grain) ricecakes and some peanut butter today. Hate to say it but that is probably 700+ calories (a cookie is a killer in itself!)
However, I find that if I monitor well today, I can probably be within calorie limits.
Will eating "junk food" hinder my progress as long as I don't overeat my calories?
However, it has been my experience when I eat a bunch of junk on any day I tend to feel more run down, especially if it's lots of sugary stuff, which can affect the intensity of my workouts.0 -

haha, nice attempt at a personal attack (once again), I'm 36, and Ive studied the human body prob as long as you have been alive, at least 20 years, I was a Combat Medic in the Army and have had PLENTY of training and experience gained in REAL WORKING CONDITIONS, with great Doctors, not a little "College" frat house. ever wonder, maybe I'm NOT a "heretic" and possibly understand the body a little better than you ?, oh god forbid ANYONE knows the body better than you !! lol. man, never have I met so many close minded people in one place, refusing to even attempt to wonder if what they think they know may be wrong, I'm sorry but if you aren't questioning EVERYTHING you learn from ANYONE then you are never going to know that you didn't know.0 -
Why is it someone asks a question and someone else bored, decides to go off on a tangent in the thread, as if it is generally going to help? I almost stop reading threads and just try to answer the first question.
Fewer calories in than out generally means a loss, but we are talking about our bodies which are smarter than we like to think, and cheap calories have an effect, whether that be with less energy, fewer calories burning, etc.... Hence once or twice cheap calories might not hurt, normally as rewards, but regularly, at least for most people, and you may be questioning why you are not getting the results you expect. There is a reason that this App does more than just count calories, and there is a reason most pro athletes pay attention to what they eat, not just working out.0 -

You will hit a plateau in 2 weeks? Really?
You do realize that your BMR is not your TDEE?
Also, please could you show where eating at a deficit causes a permanent drop in your BMR outside what it would due to weight lose. Also, please show me how you will lose weight if not at a deficit?
And again, please stop making assumptions.0 -

I am not quite sure, but apparently we should all eat lots and lots so we can lose weight. But we should only eat as many carbs to top up our glycogen stores.
Or something like that.0 -

I am sticking to a 1200 calorie diet and exercising everyday for at least an hour (Bob Harper bootcamp, weightloss yoga and Jillian Michaels 30 day shred and Ripped in 30). I am concerned when I don't reach my 1200 calorie intake as some days I am as low as 700. I do not have a biology degree and do not know much about how the human body works but I have read numerous articles on how metabolism works and it all makes sense.
Too few calories will slow our metabolism and fat will be stored instead of burned.
When we don't consume our daily allowance, there is a warning when completing our entries, that our bodies will go into starvation and weight loss will be more difficult.
Having said that, I am also..NOT an athelete who trains for 8 hours a day or more, so i do not need to eat mounds of food. I have to eat the right amount of food for MY daily activity. Having said that, I truly believe that calories in and calories out makes a world of difference according to your personal daily level of activity.
As for JUNK FOOD, I still eat it in moderation. One day of being "naughty" is not going to do any harm. I believe it just makes us stronger and more motivated :-)0 -

I have a BMR of 1707 (determined through an oxygen consumption test) so no, of course I'm not going to take on your "challenge" and eat 2500+ calories because I know damn well I will gain weight- whether I eat whole foods or junk food.

Also, please could you show where eating at a deficit causes a permanent drop in your BMR outside what it would due to weight lose. Also, please show me how you will lose weight if not at a deficit?
And again, please stop making assumptions.
im not talking about "Losing Weight" here, Im talking about a positive shift in body comp. you know, more muscle and less fat AT THE SAME TIME, yes its possible. tell me if calories count, how could I have a 190 pound athlete eating 4,500 calories ( 20 whole egg omelets and piles of bacon at one meal sometimes) right up to a physique show, steadily losing body fat percentage and gaining LBM ? his BMR was prob only 2000-2200 plus his daily TDEE may have been 3500-4000 at most in expenditure. the REASON that you lose FAT while over consuming calories from real food, no sugar, and controlled carbs only, is that our body has a "Calorie conservation" mode and it also has a "calorie wasting" mode. we also burn calories in 5 diff pathways. Mechanical is but 1 path. Thermoregulation is 2, Hormonal (production and utilization of them) is 3, Chemically ( digestion etc) is 4 and Neurological is 5, the more calories we consume the higher our nervous energy usage is, creating more energy for exercise. you are SO fixated on fat loss being your TDEE - intake= fat loss. in reality what has to happen in our body during a deficit is not necessarily fat utilization, you assume that is what happens, what really happens is lower calories lowers TOTAL weight, meaning you lose MUSCLE, other tissues, some fat, and you don't recover as well and also lose bone tissue if done long enough. I'm not talking "Weight loss" once again, Im talking Body Composition change. the excess calories, if healthy, will be utilized for healthy tissue building, not fat storage, thats a very simplistic idea of the body, its not cause and effect. you eat MORE of anything and the body tries to maintain a physiological "Normal" level, like sodium/potassium balance and water, or Oxygen to Carbon Dioxide ratio in the blood controls breathing rate. hell, did you know you will die if you breath PURE oxygen ? it will make you stop breathing due to the "hypoxic drive", until you get a breath with carbon dioxide in it to stimulate the hypoxic drive, O2 in blood gets low, breathing goes up, it gets too high, breathing goes down. you get too hot, you sweat to return to homeostasis, what makes you think calories are any different ? it is ALL controlled by Negative Feedback Mechanisms. true biological actions/reactions are medically known. look into the book "the calorie myth" and he give more than enough medical reference proving my words. as well as "the fat switch" by a doctor or Dr. Jack Kruse's works/website. its all out there.0 -

yeah I don't think so, maybe its you who are too full of yourself to learn anything new, this is rampant in this field. I also do my own research and reading, I don't just take what everyone "teaches me" as being the gospel truth like you obviously have, if you think its all calories in -calories out, you are behind the curve, just wait and see, a couple years or so this knowledge will become more mainstream, just like when I first found Intermittent Fasting or Paleo back in 2005, people said the same thing to me, now, 9 years later, its mainstream, I have this knack of being ahead of the curve. say what u will, call me crazy, I'm sure they called the man crazy when he said the world is round, he was crazy, until he was proven right. myths are like that, and this is no different.0 -

I also do my own research and reading, I don't just take what everyone "teaches me" as being the gospel truth like you obviously have, if you think its all calories in -calories out, you are behind the curve, just wait and see, a couple years or so this knowledge will become more mainstream, just like when I first found Intermittent Fasting or Paleo back in 2005, people said the same thing to me, now, 9 years later, its mainstream, I have this knack of being ahead of the curve. say what u will, call me crazy, I'm sure they called the man crazy when he said the world is round, he was crazy, until he was proven right. myths are like that, and this is no different.
What exactly is your field?0 -
enjoy your "ignorance forum", obviously no one here is open minded.
Sweetie I hate to break it to you but being open minded and believing blatantly untrue things are not one in the same.0
