Only fruit&veggies during day w/ protein @ night

How about hard boiling eggs for a week day protein pick up. Or scramble one. Or peanut butter on oatmeal or fruit or veg. On a less than 1200 calorie diet your body learns to survive on starvation input but you won't loose weight.0

Oh lawd, All carbs make glucose, even protein can make glucoseVeggies DO count and fruit is not low in calories ans natural sugars but sugars none the less. Sugars make glucose that triggers the body to store fat.
Every thing counts. Moderation is key.0 -
Add some people who are happy to have their food diary open to friends - it's a very useful way of getting ideas as to the different ways of structuring your eating during the day. Some people have huge breakfasts and smaller meals - some have no breakfast and a big dinner. Find a way that suits your lifestyle. It's a good way of collecting meal ideas and seeing how you can better balance your macros eg eating enough Protein is an issue for me so I gather ideas about protein rich menus.0

How do you store fat on a caloric deficit?0 -
veggies and fruits do count, so you are eating more than 500 to 800 calories. And a lot of fruits actually have a lot of calories. A banana has about 100 or more, watermelon has quite a lot, so do avocados...0

Answer me this...how do you store fat in a caloric deficit.
Also, why are you assuming that everyone is insulin resistant, even if that did cause you to store fat, which it does not at a deficit?0 -

I'm not assuming. All I said was insulin is a hormone that stores fat, which is absolutely 100% true.
I did eat at a deficit and I STILL stored fat. It is all part of having the condition.0 -

So at the end of the day I'm usually in between 500 and 800 calories, and I'm never hungry.
Is that an okay way to look at it?
Absolutely not! 500 - 800 calories is an extremely bad idea.0 -

Let me inform you… Individuals with insulin resistance have a diminished ability to respond to insulin. Normal amounts of insulin are inadequate to produce a normal insulin response from fat, muscle and liver cells. In order to compensate, the pancreas produces more insulin. Consequently, the process where glucose passes through the cell wall via insulin to be converted into energy is highly impaired. As a result, excess glucose remains in the blood stream, causing elevated levels of blood sugar. This is sent to the liver. Once there, the sugar is converted into fat and carried through the blood stream throughout the body. This process leads to weight gain.0 -

lol - if you say so.0 -
1) Insulin is also a muscle protein synthesis hormone...why does it not get called that?
2) Protein is insulinogenic - why are carbs always given the bad rap?
3) BMR for people with insulin resistance is impacted, and impacted moreso by carbs - but you still need to eat at a surplus to gain weight.0 -
