THE TITLE OF THIS THREAD SAYS IT ALL

I like turtles.

best.response.ever

look, I know this post is getting a lot of unwarranted attention so I'm just going to speak my opinion with no regard to prior posts:

WEIGHT LOSS OCCURS WHEN CALORIES IN<CALORIES BURNED IN DAY. Period.

Yes, you will feel better/retain less water/have less insulin resistance if you stick to "whole foods" or "clean foods" or "only real sugars, and in very very low amounts" etc etc etc but at the end of the day your body works on a very simple math equation, and that's it. If you eat less than you burn, you will lose weight.

We can get more detailed and say that protein=fullness for a longer amount of time+rebuilds muscle damaged from exercise. Carbs=short term boosts of energy that are awesome for pre-exercise (and fiber--a necessary carbohydrate--keeps you full for longer/keeps you regular) Fats=joint lubrication, lowering cholesterol (in the form of LDLs-Low Density Lipoproteins), and meal satisfaction in the form of complete "umami" flavor experience.

The point I'm trying to make is that ALL of the macromolecules (protein, fat, and carbohydrates--study some biochemistry if you don't fully understand these compounds) are essential to life, and as long as you incorporate all of them within a good balance and a reasonable calorie limit, you WILL lose weight and you WILL become healthier overall.


YES, fast foods are linked with cancer. YES, artificial sweeteners are associated with cancer. Want to know what else has toxins with either an equal (or higher) chance of causing cancer/health complications?
-food dye
-x rays
-asprin
-ibuprofen/advil
-acetomenophine/tylenol
-the air you breathe if you are within 500 miles of an urban area
-cigarettes
-asbestos
-genetics
-exposure to certain animal dander
-HPV
-eating red meat in general
-alcohol
-over exercising
-driving a car
-keeping a cell phone in your pocket (cervical/testicular cancer especially)
-FM and AM radio waves
-walkie-talkies

-LCD screens
-bubble baths
-the Sun
-burnt food
-food cooked on a grill
-food cooked on a gas stove
-anything related to microwaves
-aluminum foil
-most antibiotics
-coal
-coca cola (and all sodas)
-estrogen/post menoposal therapy
-oral contraceptives
-formaldehyde
-leather dust
-salted fish
-silica gel (even when found in packets inside your shoes!)
-ANYTHING involving body work on cars/bikes/planes/boats/etc
-Insufficient activity levels
-hair dye
-spray-on sunscreen
-hairspray
-perfume
-most household cleaning agents (bleach, ammonia, etc)


I could go on for hours. My point is, everything (in excess) will kill you eventually. eat what you enjoy, pay attention to your calories and macromolecules AND ENJOY WHATEVER THE **** YOU WANT AS LONG AS IT FITS THESE TWO PARAMETERS.

I encourage everyone who agrees to add me as a friend. I am a nursing major and slightly obsessed with nutrition.

thank you, MFP. GOODNIGHT.

Welp. I'm screwed. Im going to stop breathing and eating so I live longer...oh wait...

Moderation is the key =].

This.

What kind of shampoo did you use today? What about makeup and lotion? Do you know what your shower curtain is made of, how about your floors or the plastic containers you buy your food in. I will bet you that you are surrounded by toxic **** and putting it on your skin, let people worry about what they are eating and you focus on what you are eating.
