    High five to this post! :D

    I personally choose to eat clean and feel that it has made a difference to me, but I do 'cheat' sometimes. It's nice to read something like this and remind myself it's not a huge deal haha.

    you have to understand...it is really cool to diss low carb...and basically diss anything that that they dont agree with...that way they can be all subtly superiror without actually agreeing with ANYTHING....you have a bunch of kiss *kitten* mo fo 's here who act all together, and really are just seeking your approval...beware of the "nice" guy..

    .low carb is good..dont be fooled by the guys who work out more than the average person and tell you that you need a bunch of carbs.
    I workout 3 times a week and eat over 250g of carbs a day. The fat is melting away. Low carb is one method. Not the be-all and end-all of weightloss.


    that is good for YOU,,,most of the folks here are not all about YOUR goals...they just want to lose some weight,,,you dont need to do what you are doing to lose some weight....you guys act like the only way to do this is YOUR way....you are wrong,,,but good luck

    Agree with 80% - especially 1-7.

    Low carbing and/or carb cycling DOES help me; recently I did it and broke a 3 month plateau.

    Low carbing is a tool that, for some people, can be useful. It's not a necessity for weight loss however (insulin conditions aside), and carbs are not the evil macronutrient that fat was once proclaimed to be.

    Eating clean IS BETTER than eating overly processed. By default, clean eaters typically consume more fresh/frozen fruits and veggies than folks who don't try to eat clean. Surely we are not going to deny that fruits/veggies are better?

    For weight loss it is irrelevant given we are comparing equal calories and macronutrients. It is also an ambiguous term. That being said, consuming a diet that is "mostly" whole and nutrient dense foods is a great idea and I support it. I just don't support an all-or-nothing methodology.

    It's only natural to recommend a method working for you to someone else, no? I've never dissed low carb but I will never advise someone to try it because for me, it was a horrible (and slightly dangerous when my head was so fuzzy and I had to drive to work) experience. I'm no more wrong than anyone that decrees low-carb as some godly secret to weightloss. Good luck to you too, good sir.

    Actually the majority of people you take issue with are simply trying to make things simplified for people by removing alot of the facets of dieting that aren't really important.

    Oh, yes...assuming that everyone else has the same goals you do, except for those who work out more than the "average" person (wth does that mean?) of course.

    Why is it so cool for you to constantly have an attitude with people who are genuinely helping others?

    Actually...you need to reread what's been written, because you're clearly not getting it.

    That happens I hear...when close minded people make judgments on other people's commentary without actually taking the time to comprehend it.

    The only thing I would tend to disagree with is staying with the same program and just adding weight. That isn't always what my goal is about! I would change that to say 'train with specificity'...aka., come up with some goal that ISN'T about fat loss and work towards it. That goal might be about strength, power, or endurance. I wouldn't train for a 5K while keeping up a strength routine from 10 weeks ago. It's not about confusing or surprising your muscles--obviously they don't have feelings--it's about avoiding a self-defeating cycle of non-specific training. Just my 2 cents. Loved everything else!

    I certainly agree you can eat ****t and still lose weight, as long as you're eating less ****t than before (or eat same amount of ****t but start working out...that will also help lose weight.). I never said otherwise.

    So yeah, you can go by basic math for calories consumed vs burned. But in the long run it's not just the calories that matter for overall good health.


    Also...another note on me using low carb to break my plateau...during that period I had increased fat, maintained calories, and actually decreased activity... all counterproductive to weight loss. Yet I still lost over 9 lbs in 14 low carb days (20 days total). I cannot think of a single reason I would have lost weight except that I went from ~150 to ~30 carbs per day. This is another reason that I think it's best to not simply add/subtract cals. Possible - yes. All that matters - no.
    I can think of the very obvious reason, decreasing carbs from 150 a day to 30 a day leads to massive amounts of glycogen and water loss. The average person stores about 8-10 pounds of glycogen with water, cutting out carbs means those stores won't get replenished, glycogen is used for just about everything, so it gets used up relatively quickly, ergo, losing 9-10 pounds in a week or two after drastically cutting carbs. Pretty much exactly what you described. Not all weight lost is fat.

    You're so misguided. Clean eating is the only way to go. It is MANDATORY.
    2 bottle caps of bleach with every meal goes a long way. *points to ticker* Proof in action. Calorie free ;)

    Wait, wouldn't that be water?

    But I guarantee, add in some fats (codliver oil anyone?) and things will go a LOT faster.
