    I lost my weight eating whatever I wanted.
    I am not keen on pizza or white rice so your diet wouldn't work for me.
    Glad it does for you.

    Cheers, h.

    It's macro timing ...no carbs till later in the day

    Still CICO of course

    But with unnecessary rules

    Its up to what kind of high gycilic carbs you want to have. U have to find foods you like. You will get used to eating meat and vegies during the day. I dont even eat carbs everyday ither than the ones that r un my vegies. Carb backloading is awsome for people that work out 2 to 5 days a week. But i do not eat many ir jo carbs at all on my off days This will work for everyone

    I tend to eat high carb only on workoutdays though and high fat on non-workout , fasting the whole day. ( best of both worlds :D)

    *kitten* yeah energy levels have never been so stable, also the mental alertness due to Ghrelin is insane.

    You're doing Intermittent fasting ?

    Loosing 65 lbs of weight or 65 lbs of fat ? Did you measure your before and after Body fat levels ? That's the point

    I fast about 11 to 12 hours a day at the most. I just get . I also read the renagade diet and that was awsome but they believe in fasting for 14 hours. Thats rough. Jennifer the point is people want to losr body fat or fat on their own terms. Sumtin thay makes them feel comfortable and this works for me. Im glad u lost 65 lbs. wat did u do differ

    You're wrong. Excess calories create fat. It doesn't matter where they come from.

    I eat my carbs (including pizza and rice) whenever I please and I've lost a lot of weight. Meal or macro timing is irrelevant as long as you eat less than you burn.

    What i have learned is that if you eat carbs during the day it will kill-your fat burning cortisol levels and start storing. Look up john keifer thats who i fillow. I tryed alot of differ thing bit but i eat my carbs at night my muscles look so fill the next day and my waistline looks so small in the morning. Wen i would eat carbs during the day i would wake up flat. Thats my experience on my own body. But yes i have too lost weight bok ways but loading my carbs at night make my muscles look mote aswome

    Look I don't have an issue with how you choose to achieve your calorie defecit

    If this works for you and makes you feel great then that's brilliant

    But if you want to convince people you link to actual peer reviewed studies to support your case, not bro-science sites ...let me give you a clue ...avoid the following

    Robert Lustig
    Gary Taubes
    David Ludwig
    Steve Phinney
    Jeff Volek
    Dr. Oz
    Dr. Mercola
    Bananagirl
