Ding-dongs the lot of you! Well, some of you. Actually, none of you. It's the notions that are silly, not the peeps. Anyhoo, here's the shizzle as the kids say: (1) Exercise is next to useless for weight loss. Study after study has shown this. And most honest (and scientific) trainers will tell you this too. Unless you're…

Insulin - that essential hormone is also our 'storage' hormone. Want to lose weight - or keep it off? Then do everything you can to avoid…

I see no research in your post. Or is there another post somewhere on the site? You mention calories in vs. calories out - an utterly debunked dietary myth that everyone needs to forget. This hackneyed notion displays a fundamental lack of understanding re thermodynamics and biology. here's a nice wee article to get you…

You're right, it doesn't slow weight loss, it REVERSES it! Read 'Good Calories, Bad Calories' by Gary Taubes to learn how wrong and unscientific your statement is. I love fruit, but it's full of fructose and fructose (as we should all know by now) is worse than sugar. It not only spikes insulin, (which causes fat storage)…
