    uhhhhhh *whine* *foot stomp*

    You're mean! You'll never understand the struggles *I* have!! you don't have my body!!! I have a CONDITION damn you! Have you had to suffer through FA/NAS? Fat *kitten*/Netflix Addiction Syndrome is a metabolism killer. So to compensate I am going to eat whatever I want whenever I want BUT I will take green coffee extract. Then I will be a skinny bish.

    To all those *snowflakes*....please bookmark this article immediately and take the following steps:

    1.) READ the article
    2.) every time the words 'but that doesn't apply to me, BECAUSE I'M DIFFERENT' come out of your mouth, refer back to #1.

    LOVE this thread!!

    Some people have diseases or allergies that causes them to not metabolize things the same as others. I'm sorry, but everyone is genetically pre-dis-positioned differently and because of our genetic makeup, no single person on earth should follow the same diet as everyone else. You don't tell a hypoglycemic person to go on a low carb diet; you also don't tell person who just had cardiovascular surgery to go on a high fat diet.

    Everyone IS different, so thank you for your pedantic speech on how you don't like people who claim to be different than you because it was humorous to see your arrogance. But if it helps you get over your inferiority complex to believe everyone is the same then go for it buddy; but I am nothing like you and my body functions differently than yours does (but I *am* seeing results so I am not complaining about the difference).

    I have to agree here. There are genetic predispositions there are also metabolic disorders.

    Which does not change what is being said and is referred to in the article.

    THANK YOU -- for proving my point!! I keep trying to tell a friend of mine this but she keeps saying this and that doesn't work for her and her daughter, "cause they're different" as you say and quoting all sorts of pop psychology/physiology from so-called "experts" (and I always question the reliability of her sources but she insists that it's true.) :noway: Some people just have to learn the hard way I guess.

    The first thing people should do when starting out is read Lyle's website. Www.bodyrecomposition.com
    Agree wholeheartedly. Lyle's site has a wealth of informative and useful articles.


    Judging by a couple responses in this thread, some of us *are* special little snowflakes - at least when it comes to reading comprehension.

    Did you read the article? I'm guessing not because both of these issues were covered. Here's the cliff notes: Genetic predisposition play a very minor role and don't change the energy balance equation significantly. Metabolic disorders are a medical condition and when treated properly are minimized or managed. Really helps to read the article.
