Yep!

Enough to forget the score of the game last night

What you have bolded is a personal example from my life which I used to give evidence to my point. My point was not to promote a keto diet. If you look at the quote I responded to, it was to someone saying that sugar intake does not matter. My point is that it does (as ndj states, it's diet and dosage that matters). I can…

Should have been more specific I guess

No... If you read the whole quote, I clearly say that a diet that worked for me isn't going to work for everyone. My first post about the importance of sleep in this forum, that was advice.

And I appreciate your views on it. I've tried a lot of different things, and this is what worked for me.

I never gave "advice", I stated that sugar is not irrelevant.

Where did I tell OP to go low carb. Please quote it for me. Edit for quote problems

MrM, in terms of overall diet, I agree with you, it does matter. My point with what I chose has nothing to do with our argument, I just want you to see where my beliefs are coming from. I am NOT trying to promote my diet here guys.

Once again, this is not a discussion about low carb vs. other diets. This forum is about a woman who has had a rough four weeks. Not the context for this discussion. Yopeeps, do not put words in my mouth. No where did I say that sugar is THE ONLY thing that matters. No where did I say that you can eat above your calories…

Ndj1979, Mrm27, anyone really, If you want to discuss this, feel free to message me. I should have kept my answers short and sweet because this is turning into a discussion that deserves a paper instead of a forum discussion. I'm just trying to say that the dosage of sugar in one's diet will have an effect, and to say it…

I see what you're saying, but by the same logic, wouldn't an overall diet be incomplete without considering the contents of an item? I'm a big believer in the quality of the food one eats as well. In my opinion, nothing beats natural choices like getting protein as close to wild caught as possible. Along these lines, I…

We are arguing different points. I'm not saying peak and valleys aren't there (cause they are), I'm also not saying just eat chicken (you need a well balanced diet (macros AND micros). I'm just saying that your sugar intake isn't irrelevant. It has an effect on your body.

But it can... When you ingest carbs, it creates an insulin response. In the mornings, one is very insulin sensitive. The hormone insulin indiscriminately grows tissue (grows both muscle and fat). "strictly fat loss" doesn't make sense because, fat cells, water, etc, it's all tied together. Maybe I'm missing your point?

Actually sugar does matter. I'm sorry but 300 calories of chicken and 300 calories of pop tarts affect you much differently. Sugar, for one, makes you retain water. Now I'm not saying that a fully ketogenic diet is the way to go (I lost ~20 pounds on one), but everyone is different. One thing will not work for everyone.…

SLEEP! Just stick with what you are doing, but get at least 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep a night and drink enough water and I almost guarantee the weight will fall back off. Our body has this amazing function to hold onto fat when we beat the dog piss out of it, and with the already stressful environment you are in with…
