That on top of the fact that studying these things on a big enough scale while still controlling the parameters is almost impossible. The most realiable data seems to come from places where the circumstances dictate and control them effectively.

That is true. To me this makes a lot more sense than a lot of other stuff on the internet.

Everyone needs to find what works for them.

It is and it isnt. For the most part Id say it isnt. At the end of the day it really is as simple as calories in and calories out BUT because that piece of cake is not particularly nutritious nor does it take very long to digest you tend to need to eat more cake to say full which tends to promote overeating. You pretty much have to decide to stay hungry for a while to compensate.

Good point. You are talking about empty calories. The body craves more nutrients that it needs  for fuel, not to mention the sugar addiction and the processed flour, so in reality the body is not calling out for more chocolate cake, it needs nutrients, so if one takes that route, one ends up feeling hungry because at that point the food we crave is more like a drug than a food .

  I believe it is not about over eating , but about not eating enough (of the right kind of foods) 

 So then the question is why does one  want to lose weight  in the first place ?

If we  look at the rise in health problems in this country, Diabetes, cancer, and heart disease and ask  does diet play a role ? And If the answer is yes, then we may want  to look at what we eat more closely than just trying to look good.

It absolutely is about over eating. If you were to track the number of calories an overweight person consumed throughout the day, it is going to be significantly higher than their total daily energy expenditure. 

You can eat that piece of cake and still be under your daily calorie goal and lose weight, but once you eat that piece of cake and then another snack later that puts you over your calorie goal because you aren't satiated from that cake, then that is over eating.  

You can eat all of the "right" (very subjective) kinds of foods and still gain weight if you are consuming more calories than you are burning.

even without all the great research that is out there I think we all know what is healthy eating and what is not. There may be areas that are questionable but for the most part we all know.

I agree one can lose weight by counting calories, but what is the point of losing weight if it is not contributing to ones health.That is why all these diet programs thrive. People can not keep the weight off because they can not maintain the discipline it takes to stay on them. So they move from diet to diet thinking the next one will work.

In my opinion weight loss needs to to part of a lifestyle change in order to be effective. and that lifestyle change needs to include exercise and nutrient dense food with lots of plants, nuts and fruits. No better store than nature.

I agree, JCrane, including wild game! Almost zero fat, no growth hormones, no steroids, no antibiotics.

I once read somewhere that if it "runs fast, flies fast, or swims fast" you should eat it! No better source of protein on the planet.

I also heard if man has touched it don't eat it. so yes the closer we get to nature the better


I tried this for the last 2 weeks or so, and have to admit that I feel better and my weight is stabilized. I was on an upward trajectory, but fasting 12 hours at a time really helps regulate my appetite and I crave healthier foods.

Good find @saevel25.

    • Day 215: just some mirror work. Worked on earlier wrist hinge in the backswing. 
    • Top two choices: Hide & Seek: Wallet With Hidden Pocket | Bellroy This billfold’s classic good looks and slim profile hide a clever secret – a concealed section inside that keeps extra bills, cards or coins out of sight. Ridge Wallet - Forged Carbon The strong, slim, and sustainable ridge wallet is now available as forged carbon wallet. The anodized aluminum plating lets you enjoy a scratch-resistant surface.

    • Day 142 - 2025-02-19 Had 45 minutes after some GEARS lessons and before a junior. Got some good work in.
    • He wasn't a bad guy. And he was just trying to get out there and get some fresh air and exercise. He ended up liking the new cane a lot, because in addition to not making pock marks on the greens, it also stood up by itself. He didn't have to hand it to somebody to hold while he hit his shot. Or lean it against the cart. It would just stand up by itself. ... Kind of like those stand up putters. ... 🤣
    • Sounds like you guys came up with a great solution.
