Not less by volume necessarily, but definitely by calories. Exercise is optional, but a great addition to the arsenal for long term health benefits. If you just math out the calories, though, and eat for the weight you want to be at instead of where you are.... you will see results over time. If you cut carbs and sugar out the rest falls into place pretty easily. Proteins and vegetables will do you right.
Humans are emotional and by and large have little impulse control. It's why they can't follow diets. The problem isn't shitty food, tv ads or being poor. We are fat because we are weak willed and demand instant gratification.
Eat less often will benefit you more than eating less, same calories in one setting vs spread out over the course of a day the single setting wins every time. Time restricted diets (fasting) are the best, IF combined with keto is the best and exercise isn’t even required but all 3 combined will net the best results. The 3 small meals and diet combined with exercise is a tried and tested method to short term gains and long term failure.
Why do you say you won't get involved and then re hash your exact same nonsense that I debunked last time?
This is 100% wrong. Smaller more frequent meals are much better at raising bmr. Lift weights, muscle mass will raise your bmr. Don't do an hour of cardio. Do 15 minutes of high intensity interval cardio (sprint 100 meters, light jog next 100, repeat etc), also very effective at raising bmr. Eat plenty of healthy fats (nuts, fish, olive oil etc...) and avoid processed carbs and alcohol.
A parasite with parasites, it’s like inception with parasites all the way down.
I am the living embodiment of this. It has only been recently that I have drilled down on keeping my calorie intake low. One stint before COVIDIA, and the past 4 months. The results have been pretty awesome in terms of losing weight, getting my a1c and all the other stuff they look at under control, and I have a lot more energy in general. So, my doctor was right all these years. I mean, I always knew he was, but I hated the thought of life without sugar, dairy, and carbs.
yes and then you find yourself going back to the fridge and wallowing in a half gallon tub of napoleon, which you bought b/c you thought it'd be a bit of self control to have that worthless strip of strawberry only to see it empty and a few hours later your latose intolerate ass will punish you.
