Low Carb - High Fat diet

[Mich the Tester]

Ok, the end result is consuming less digestible calories than you burn. Question is, which is easier and keeps you feeling full, low carb or low fat? Many people claim that low carb is easy to follow and never leaves them feeling hungry, to the extent that you don't need to calorie count or anything else. Surely this is a better solution than a diet that leaves your body craving food all the time?

Other considerations are that peoples blood readings improve on cholesterol etc. confounding the doctors expectations.

Actually I think the easiest way is probably to stop worrying about what you eat and exercise more. But that seems to be too difficult for some.

OK, lets go for a run, you can take as much fat as you want for eating, you can have animal fat, veg fat you can take fat oil, as much as you want. I'll take a cup of glucose powder.

You will be on the ground after a couple of hours when I am just a quarter the way through my cup of sugar.

Anyway, the reality is that this thread is nothing to do with dieting, it is to do with you reading something of the web wanting to look a bit unorthodox and waving it in front of everybody in a 'look how different I am' manner. It is behaviour marked out in people lacking in personality who don't any attention through normal social interaction due to being boring morons. I can only conclude that your real life acquaintances put up with you due being too polite to tell you to fook off.

Nonsense, in fact even I fasted for 6 hours before I would outlast you x100, when you had used all you stores of glycogen and about to hit the wall, groping for a Gatorade or In your case a swig of buckfast.

This is all entering the realm of delusional fantasies now.

Not really, you have to do an insane amount of exercise to over come a bad diet.
Even running for 45 minutes will burn less calories than a big breakfast. Its easier to stay in bed for an extra hour and skip breakfast

Exercise to improve fitness, diet to control weight

You don´t just burn extra calories while doing the exercise. If you mix up aerobic and anaerobic exercise you´ll burn extra calories while recovering.

I would say almost the opposite. Cut your calories down with a healthier diet is the most straightforward way to lose weight.

It depends what you find ´easy´. Exercise has been part of my (almost) daily routine pretty much since I could stand up on my own. Like cleaning teeth or taking a tulip. I don't see what people find so hard about it.

I would define easy in this case as having the most effect. I enjoy exercise and usually train 6-7 times a week (although have had to have a break for a bit as I hurt my back).

To get rid of a cheese and bacon baguette with a packet of crisps and can of coke would take some serious exercise which means finding the time in the day etc. To swap it for a graze box (of some other healthy equivalent) is trivial and avoid a load of those unhealthy calories in the first place is trivial.

Do the exercise and replace the can of coke with some juice or ice tea would be even easier.
