So this person works out 5 days a week and eats <1500 calories and stays fat.

They also only ate a diet of yogurt while "working out 10 hours a day" and couldn't stay thin.

Seems legit.

Labels lie, in some cases by 25%, which can mean the difference between losing weight and gaining weight.

You're much better off simply not eating foods that require labels... you'll never find one potato that has 25% more calories by weight than another potato of the same variety.

Hold on let me do the math lets see 0 idea units with 25% variance is still 0 idea units of how much clueless idiots have about their intake.

Telling overweight women that improvement is impossible, they should give up and stay fat if not grow fatter isn't the least feminist thing I've ever heard. But it's up there.

My friends gym does the full Extreme work out poo poo with diet and excersie. Then there's cheat day. I'm like friend don't do that as you'd probably accomplish your goal faster and learn to maintain a healthier diet for the long term. Don't eat 3 pizzas and a gallon of double mocha choco ice cream on cheat day is my advice. Cheat days are weak minded bs

Every day shoudl be a cheat day. Eat whatever you wish

It's strange when people speak of eating garbage as freedom and happiness as a point of pride. At least drug addicts and gamblers are somewhat ashamed of their slavery.

we should do what we do with drug addicts in america and start a war on obesity only it might actually work

if you're fat, you're imprisoned, forced to eat properly portioned low calorie diets, then released back into the general population once you're in the middle of your acceptable weight range

i can't see how this wouldn't work

You forget we live in a capitalist society. Any regulatory efforts to reduce the food we eat (especially garbage) is tantamount to attacking freedom itself. Government nutrition recommendations are always heavily compromised by private food industries.

quote:

By 2014, all-out war had erupted over school lunches, with the first lady and health advocates on one side and school cafeteria managers, food manufacturers and Republicans on the other. Farm-state lawmakers wanted a waiver that would let schools opt out if they lost money under the healthier food options. “Only the Obama administration could take an anti-hunger program and turn it into an anti-obesity program and not understand the difference,” said Brian Rell, chief of staff to Rep. Robert Aderholt, the Alabama Republican who led the effort to relax the rules.

good post, asking the government to actually fight obesity is like expecting a president who actually fights over population

you'll have a truly fit america around the same time you have a mostly socialist america, it's unlikely any of us will live to see an america not driven by increasingly large numbers

The Final Solution to the Obesity Problem: A loving diet and some exercise, you shameful fatass.

It took me some thorough shaming to get me into a gym and lift (excluding diet poo poo). Shaming works, just treat the fatty like a heroin addict. He's a complete mess who needs continuous help. You can't just, say "we'll help you through *blahblahblah*", give him a methadone clinic next door to his dealer and expect him to cure himself.

Just lift and diet and the inspiration in the gym will be those fit hotties that a typical goon visually slobbers over in the gym (refrain from this if at all possible). Large firm asses. Thick legs. Get fit and gently caress. Don't be an absolute mess like I currently am. At least give it a shot.

Actually, aside from those generally correct things, two people in the thread did claim to be on impossibly low calorie diets while either maintaining or gaining weight.

That's where all the lectures on thermodynamics and calorie under reporting come from since the one guy said he was exercising constantly while eating an impossibly small amount of calories and somehow not losing weight.

Other guy is claiming to be on more strict rations than people in concentration camps but somehow not losing weight either.

That's not what I said at all dude.

I said I ate pretty much next to nil for a year due to financial hardships, then when I started eating normally again, that I gained a ton of weight quickly. Then I asked for clarification on the idea of starvation mode and the possible effects on metabolism since some posters said it's not actually a thing and I wanted to learn more.


If you're going to get lovely about something some one said, maybe make sure you actually know what it was that was said.
