It most certainly is. I never said exercise isn't important but if you think pounding it out the gym everyday and coming home and eating HFCS or processed food is going to cut it; good luck. It doesn't work that way. There's a lot more to biochemistry than just calories in - calories out.said_aouita;1195147 wrote:Not it's not. Hope this helps.

Incorrect. It's not as simple as "calories in/calories out." That's a myth.Glory Days;1195294 wrote:not really. but thanks for trying to sound smart.
eat at a deficit and you will lost weight. book it. thats why there are a million types of diets out there and they all pretty much work. they all do the same thing.BR1986FB;1195298 wrote:Incorrect. It's not as simple as "calories in/calories out." That's a myth.
I'm not trying to sound smart. I'm not going to sit here and say I'm an expert in food and nutrition, but if you think calories are the only thing that matter, than just just eat Big Macs everyday and talk to me at age 40 when your heart stops. The body is incredible complex and trying to simplify it down to calories in vs calories out is a joke.Glory Days;1195294 wrote:not really. but thanks for trying to sound smart.

i am currently doing it. even eating processed food, pop, shitty food and snacks. i've lost 15 lbs this year. hell i am about to have a large dairy queen blizzard for breakfast. not only that, when i eat more or eat less, it reflects on the scale.

of course if you eat too little and go into starvation mode. eating at a slight deficit and losing healthy amounts like 1 lb or so a week isnt going to change much.sleeper;1195322 wrote:Eat at a deficit and your body will slow down its metabolism.
about 2,000 calories for me.Raw Dawgin' it;1195330 wrote:People on here who are dieting - do you take into account the calories your body burns while you're at rest? I think it's pretty incredible to see what your body burns during the day on it's own just by functioning. I think it's called RMR
"Starvation mode" is also a myth unless you haven't eaten for a long time (days).Glory Days;1195328 wrote:of course if you eat too little and go into starvation mode. eating at a slight deficit and losing healthy amounts like 1 lb or so a week isnt going to change much.

yes, eating too few calories for too long.BR1986FB;1195336 wrote:"Starvation mode" is also a myth unless you haven't eaten for a long time (days).

No, incorrect. You've definitely bought in to all of the catch phrases..."calories in/calories out", "starvation mode", etc when they are myths.Glory Days;1195343 wrote:yes, eating too few calories for too long.

Why eat 1 steak when i can eat 10 rice cakes?Sonofanump;1195351 wrote:I have never thought about the calories I take in. All I care about is what kind of calories it is. No one is going to tell me that a 100 calorie rice cake is better for me than a 1000 carlorie grass feed steak.
i've bought in because it works. 2 years ago i was around 200lbs. over the past 2 years, my workout routine hasnt changed. i was eating a lot, gained 15 lbs. about 6 months ago i started getting strict with portions, eating at a slight deficit and changed nothing else. now i am back to 200lbs. the type of food didnt change at all. you can buy into all the fancy diets you want, go for it. i know you are big into fitness/working out. i also recently had a phsyical, the doctor was amazed at the results.BR1986FB;1195345 wrote:No, incorrect.
