There are several good meatball recipes from the lady of ibreatheimhungry.com

It would only really be a problem if you're already insulin resistant. For most people sugar in whole fruit is perfectly fine. When people get into trouble is when they strip away the fiber.

That can cut both ways. who's the one being more bias? Is it you or the other guy? Whoever calls it first wins? Whoever smelt it dealt it? As for long term possibly fairly unbias research comparing multiple diets and successful weightloss, this is presented by a vegan that in the end found that starting with an Atkins type…

Dietary fat is utilized for multiple systems in you body. Repairing damaged cells, mylen sheath of your nerves, and other tissues. Carbs like you said replenish glycogen and the rest is stored for later.

Always like to try something at least once. Worst I had was a krispy cream glazed donut bun cheese burger. May have actually been good if the food truck that made it didn't use prepackaged burger patties

So bacon, cheese, chicken (breaded and fried), crouton (crunchy dry bread), garlic bread, lettuce, and likely dressing with added sugar. Just getting grilled chicken, skipping the breads, and dressing on the side would save about a meals worth of calories. You'd then be left with the most satiating parts of the meal and be…

There are some out there claims that Toubes makes that can be debunked but he's not wrong with a most of what he's said. Water weight from reduced glycogen does not account for a huge amount of weight loss and is common for a lot of people with many different diets. Losing water weight is not exclusive to a low carb diet.…

That is a good thing that you have found what works good for you. I usually have a daily "treat" as well, a 1/2 serving of 85% dark chocolate. I wasn't responding specifically to you, mostly at the general replies as a whole. In the end your choice of yogurts likely isn't going to be the biggest factor in whether or not…

One with more fat will help you feel fuller longer even if it has a little more calories and it will also help slow down the absorption of the sugar. I prefer to get yogurt with less sugar because when I do eat foods with sugar I want it to make it count and be a treat. I get full fat whole milk Fage plain greek yogurt. I…

The grocery stores around me that have full fat only carry the large tubs, except one. Makes it hard to find when 99% of the yogurt stocked is no-fat or low fat. I think the posters that say they find it everywhere don't realize that "regular" yogurt isn't full fat. It is usually made from 1-2% or even skim milk with a…

Doesn't mention all the sugar and other crap they put in their coffee. Those kind of studies are such crap. There are so many factors that can effect those numbers. It is just a correlation and does no equal causation. Maybe most people who drink that much are more likely to have stressful jobs or odd hours. There are all…

Most people can get those same results eating a whole foods diet that also includes animal products. Forks over knives is just claiming a vegan lifestyle is the perfect diet for humans which I don't agree with. It is a much healthier way of eating then the typical junky western diet and if it works for you that is all good…

I have been reading that you want to do the opposite that the shoe store did. Using insoles is weakening your muscles in your foot. Being barefoot and using zero drop minimalist shoes may actually help you better. They help you get back into a natural stride vs heavy heal padded and arch supported shoes that cause bad…

That's the part where he always loses me. Fast food companies are in the business to sell food. As much as people want to rave about wanting healthy options they don't show it with their dollars. The only pressure regarding fast food that I support is for better quality and minimized processing. There was a reason for a…

That is mainly to make it more vegan friendly. Yes you can sub out dairy and eggs in some baked goods using avocados. I like mine sliced and in my omelette, in my salads, on my burgers, or sandwiches. I saw a recipe a while back that basically you cut in half, toss the pit, bake, and top like a baked potato. I also like…

I didn't see the show but I do feel that diet has a bigger impact on weight loss then exercise and plays a much bigger role in effecting calories out then most people realize. I did see "The Men Who Made Us Fat" and I agree with most about how the general dietary guidelines and how food suppliers have influenced what the…

Fage Total-whole milk plain greek yogurt. Fills me up and keeps me full for a long time. Just add a palm full or berries or a little drop of honey and cinnamon and it is good to go. You may be scared by the cals per serving but I doubt you could put away a whole cup worth without feeling stuffed. I usually only eat about…

Geez. Turned what seemed like an honest and sincere apology turns out to be just another sales pitch. She does address some glaring issues about weight consultants or registered dieticians. Pretty much everyone can be one just by completing some very pedestrian testing.

You add oil or anything when you cook them? I would try ruling that out as well just to be thorough. Some people do have an egg sensitivity. Many that do an handle egg whites just fine.

Fathead Forks over knives is OK except for claiming a diet void of animal products will fix everything. Simply getting rid of processed junk will do most of what they claimed.

Not trying to be a nag but nitrate free bacon has just as much nitrates in it as traditional. Celery has tons of it in it naturally and if you look they swap the sodium for celery powder. There is usually an asterisk next to "nitrate/nitrite free". The disclaimer says something about excluding naturally occurring. Your…

I don't worry too much about it. I know restaurants are going to vary a lot based on portion control. If you do the math and ate at maintenance we'd have to be accurate within 20 calories/day to not gain 1 pound a year. Fortunately our bodies don't work like a bank account with only deposits and withdrawals. They are very…

If your mum got it then there is a good chance you would get it too if you got overweight. Every aunt and uncle on my moms side of the family that became overweight got pre or full blown. I like the other poster said I would focus on the total carbs not specifically sugar. Keep your sweets in check and you should be fine.…

The value is based on added sugars but cannot be distinguished by MFPs tracking between natural and added. All sugar does count towards calories but to minimize insulin response avoid foods with added sugars that are devoid of fiber. Sugar from whole fruits still in their natural fiber cells takes longer to metabolize and…

All the scary things you grew up hearing about fat have been debunked. Fat keeps you full longer then sugar/carbs. Only fat you should avoid is trans fats.

The ratios are based on the standard USDA recommended diet. If you are having success eating the way you are and are happy with the foods you're consuming I wouldn't change it. Most people don't need as many carbs as is recommended from those guidelines. Eating between 50-100g is perfectly fine. For a many people, just…

Hell if it is a money issue and moving soon some gyms will give you a free 2 week guest trial pass

Dead lifts are meant to be started with the bar elevated by the plates. You should be able to start the 5x5 with DBs but for lifts you'd want them set on something that puts them at the same height the barbell would be. Once you start getting to challenging weights the DBs may not work well. Weighted squats should still be…

average about 3 a day.

My opinion is that it is successful if you actually do it as intended vs many people just assuming you only eat big slabs of meat all day. The reason Pale gets lumped in is because it is a grain free diet and can be naturally easy to eat low carb with it. The induction phase is pretty much the same as a keto diet, both are…
