    there is no debate. insulin blunts fat loss

    fats and protein are essential for survival. carbs are not. protein is more thermogenic in its metabolism and necessary for maintanence of muscle tissue. cutting protein will slow metabolic rate and lead to muscle loss which will also reduce metabolism. reducing carbs is the easiest way to keep metabolism high and lose weight

    Bro, do you even science?

    I don't know all the scientific stuff.

    But I do know that when I did low carb the weight fell off me consistently.

    Now it's barely moving.

    And since I know someone's going to ask - I weigh everything with a food scale.
    Hold on a second. You asked the original question itt and then give that respose? What was the point of the thread?

    Trying to figure out WHY.

    It could simply be a cycle I'm in. I may have hit a pleateu with low carb as well.

    Why are you getting offended? Because I lost more while eating less carbs?
    No. I'm not offended, that's a ridiculous statement. I don't care how you lost the weight. One thing I will never be is jealous of anyone on MFP.

    Just seems like you like to ask questions just to ask questions. Luckily for me is that as of last week I don't see your posts on my news feed.

    So your upset because I ask questions ... I see. Didn't mean to hurt your delicate sensibilities.

    Because people have presented you a plethora of information and it seems you've chosen to remain ignorant.

    Anyway, weightloss is not a linear process. I've had weeks where I didn't lose a thing, followed by a week dropping 4lbs+. Impatience will be your downfall if you continue to leap from one plan to another.

    WTF are you talking about? Where did I choose to remain ignorant ... and when was I EVER ignorant? I simply said that I lost weight very quickly eating a low amount of carbs and when I switched to just CICO it slowed down. I THEN said it could have been a coincidence and I'm just trying to figure out why it happened.

    So seriously, WTF are you talking about?
    The very first line in all this quoting.

    Also note, I said "it seems", so if I'm wrong, just correct me. No need to get rageful.

    Haha. The level of insignificance you present in my life actually prevents you from getting me upset.

    I do think you like to waste members time with questions that people have already given you the answers to before but you just don't get it.

    On your keyboard, there is a down arrow. And on many computer mouses, there is a scroll bottom. All you have to do is simple press down firmly and repeatedly on the down button or scroll lightly on the mouse to move past my thread on the thread list and move on with your life.

    Voila - waste of time diminished.

    So just because YOU haven't specifically asked a question you cannot benefit from a discussion that involves the answer?

    Well.... it is obvious that the OP doesn't really WANT answers but wants to simply argue what he believes is the "truth". Science doesn't matter. Only personal experience (with an n=1 which is a horrible way to do any sort of study). You link information that has the answer and he ignores it. You flat out tell him the answer and he fights it. Whatever. Hopefully at least someone on these boards will learn something from the hard work put in by other members to try to help those that don't wish it.

    I was never not honest. I said I never asked that question. Which YOU said I did. Who was being dishonest again?

    Secondly, do you read all 25 pages of a thread? Maybe you do. I don't. It wasn't until someone in this very thread said that it was talked about in another thread I started that I went back and had to dig into the thread to find it. That thread ended up being split into 2 threads because it got so long. If YOU read that entire thing, kudos to you. I didn't.

    Most threads are a couple pages long.

    For you to expect someone to read every post of a thread that goes over 20 pages or else call them a troll is ridiculous.

    But whatever - I've never been much for the made up internet nicknames anyway.

    I believe this question was already thoroughly answered in your previous post: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/1347263-do-you-believe-in-strictly-calories-in-calories-out

    I don't recall ever asking this question in that thread. That thread did get very, very long and someone else may have brought it up.

    I never said you asked this specific question, I said the question was thoroughly answered in your post.

    You did ask about insulin response as one of your questions, there was a very long conversation about the body's response to carbs and the role of carbs in weight loss. A lot of people took the time to respond to your topic thoroughly and include studies, you might want to take the time to read their responses.

    I gotta be honest, all I hear is "Blah, blah, blah".

    If you don't like that I asked a question that relates in some way to something I asked in the past, then I really don't care. I find it ridiculous that people take the time to moderate the forum. There are moderators for this reason. Feel free to ignore my threads. Or feel free to take the time out of your day to come in them, and reply with this nonse. Either way, I don't care.

    There are plenty of people who have given some awesome answers in this thread that have helped a ton and I thank them greatly.

    So after you attacked me for providing a link to the information you sought, you then went back and read the link, and found that the information was exactly where I said it was? The same information you referred to above as nonsense?

    Blah, blah, blah indeed.

    No, it frustrating to carefully answer your questions, and then have you start a whole new thread that makes it obvious that you didn't even read the answers.

    Go ahead and show where I asked this question and it was answered... I'll wait.

    I started a thread once, where 15 pages into it it may have devolved into this discussion -- but I did not ask it.

    So just because YOU haven't specifically asked a question you cannot benefit from a discussion that involves the answer? More likely that you are can't be bothered to seek out answers for your questions or follow discussions that have occurred in your own posts. That is called intellectual laziness.

    Well, at least you are finally being honest about it.

    I was never not honest. I said I never asked that question. Which YOU said I did. Who was being dishonest again?

    Secondly, do you read all 25 pages of a thread? Maybe you do. I don't. It wasn't until someone in this very thread said that it was talked about in another thread I started that I went back and had to dig into the thread to find it. That thread ended up being split into 2 threads because it got so long. If YOU read that entire thing, kudos to you. I didn't.

    Um, what? Let's replay how that exchange actually went, shall we?
    I believe this question was already thoroughly answered in your previous post: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/1347263-do-you-believe-in-strictly-calories-in-calories-out

    I don't recall ever asking this question in that thread. That thread did get very, very long and someone else may have brought it up.

    I never said you asked this specific question, I said the question was thoroughly answered in your post.

    You did ask about insulin response as one of your questions, there was a very long conversation about the body's response to carbs and the role of carbs in weight loss. A lot of people took the time to respond to your topic thoroughly and include studies, you might want to take the time to read their responses.

    I gotta be honest, all I hear is "Blah, blah, blah".

    If you don't like that I asked a question that relates in some way to something I asked in the past, then I really don't care. I find it ridiculous that people take the time to moderate the forum. There are moderators for this reason. Feel free to ignore my threads. Or feel free to take the time out of your day to come in them, and reply with this nonse. Either way, I don't care.


    There are plenty of people who have given some awesome answers in this thread that have helped a ton and I thank them greatly.

    So after you attacked me for providing a link to the information you sought, you then went back and read the link, and found that the information was exactly where I said it was? The same information you referred to above as nonsense?

    Blah, blah, blah indeed.

    I'm not sure what youre trying to say here.

    I attacked the notion of members acting as moderators.

    I never asked that question. But I did find that other people were talking about it. Still not sure what that has to do with anything, but OK.

    Well.... it is obvious that the OP doesn't really WANT answers but wants to simply argue what he believes is the "truth". Science doesn't matter. Only personal experience (with an n=1 which is a horrible way to do any sort of study). You link information that has the answer and he ignores it. You flat out tell him the answer and he fights it. Whatever. Hopefully at least someone on these boards will learn something from the hard work put in by other members to try to help those that don't wish it.

    It's a repetitive thing. Someone posted this from one of his other threads and it really seems like that is how all these threads are.

    I'm so frustrated with my weight loss right now and my sister who is very thin said the only thing she can advise is to really cut down on the carbs. It seems to work every time for people she has worked with. She is a nurse. So, I guess that is the next thing I'm going to have to do.

    I'm guessing you didn't read the entire link of the meaning of the term. :laugh:
