This comes under "whatever works for you"

oops my post was supposed to say so Aesop, it seems a low carb diet and some form of restricted eating time works for you.

* So maybe she moves more than the average person?? If she is young this is likely. Also likely that if you are young your body is still using calories to grow - in height, body changes etc that happen to teenagers and therefore needs more calories than average person of same height and therefore you remain skinny. When my…

so Aesop, it seems a low calorie diet and some form of restricted eating time works for you. Thats great! - we all need t o find a sustainable way of eating that works for us long term. It doesn't however negate the basic 'a calorie is a calorie' statement.

But of course one can eat the same calories and one group get sick and other not - if one diet is full of nutritious foods and other diet is some extreme of non nutrition That doesnt negate a calorie being a calorie - just like, using somebody's previous example - I could walk a mile on the road or a mile in sand - one…

This thread is 10 years old. However seems BistroMD is still around. But if the food is tasteless and super expensive, surely there are better alternatives?

Well there is a perfect example of leaving out vital information. Obviously fasting for a colonoscopy is completely different scenario.

The point of fasting seems to vary according to who is doing it, religious reasons etc However intermittent fasting, as far as working to lose weight goes, only gets you into a calorie deficit if you eat less than you burn - exactly the same as getting into a calorie deficit without intermittent fasting.

Are you all enjoying the Easter break?

Doesn't this come under language differences? Isn't that article written for Americans? In Australia an elective caesarian simply means a planned one, not one done for non medical reasons - as opposed to an emergency caesarian ie one done after a problem occurs during labour - so ,no, just on maternal request isn't what I…

didn't my sister get offerred 2 dates and she chose Wed 11th? Isn't that a better choice than Friday 13th?

isnt that a tad misleading? Isnt maternal request different to medical recomendation?

Is not choosing the day you give birth (or at least choosing between a couple of options) reasonably common with elective caesarians?

it makes me irate because it is trivialising and misusing a serious issue for commercial purposes and no doubt, intended to target vulnerable people for some scamming nonsense.

if you are on dialysis you really should be following what your health professionals advise Is this nutritionist part of your renal team?

The alternative for the diabetic patients is insulin or not achieving good blood sugar control or putting up with side effects of oral medication. ( of course most diabetics don't have side effects from oral meds but inability to tolerate oral meds is a PBS criteria for Ozempic. ) Regardless of what reasons are behind the…

Correct - I think someone on 1200 calories ( although nothing to suggest OP is on 1200 calories) can fit in 160 calories of ' just because I enjoy it' food without short-changing themselves nutritionally.

just trying to stick on topic, not drift into tangents. You seem to be taking that very personally - it wasnt addressed at you in particular. threads can just drift away from original question - which of course then doesnt answer the question asked I'm not saying any more on that - or will cause a thread drift into who…

^^^ no, not really - fitting Oreos into your calories while dieting was OP's question - not whether we like them ourselves
