bob dobbs is dead posted:leisure exercise levels have increased since 1970 Honj Steak posted:As has probably the average caloric intake. Exercise alone doesn’t make you lose weight since modern industrial food is very addictive, calorically dense and lacks the nutrients that make us feel full for long. There are actually some rather odd studies that indicate that, controlling for obvious differences, exercise itself doesn't seem to be as effective as it was in the early 80s or thereabouts. Ostensibly, the same effort doesn't produce as strong a burn as it did 40 years ago. It's a very strange thing that when I last looked it wasn't just a statistical anomaly. It's not something I'd take as gospel and I haven't followed up on it, but it's intriguing. Kcal in/out is a useful front end tool like BMI is, but it has a distinct cutoff of usefulness just as BMI does. In much the same way as "yes additional protein intake is strongly recommended when building muscle mass" turns into dolts consuming more protein than their body can physically process into useful products, there's a lot of issues in connecting outcomes to causes for most people. I rarely try to engage on most things because my interest is in oncology nutrition and it's loving dire out there. But dieting is useful/effective really only in that most of it's effect is coming from people being attentive to their intake. All things being equal the actual diet itself (if it's actually a diet and not the ramblings of weirdos eating fermented meat) is a minimal part of any weight loss. But it's mostly effective for people in the "I put on some weight during COVID" category and not the folks who are 300+ etc etc. I can go trawling or bug the exercise and bariatric folks for stuff, but it's probably not super necessary unless someone really cares. Unfortunately the actually probable solutions to my eye aren't something we'll ever get in the US, because they're expensive and aren't sexy, or the intense bigotry to the poor or uneducated sets off all kinds of lovely means testing. At this point I'm just sad when someone brings me the latest psychotic Internet "cure your cancer with apple cider vinegar" poo poo.

Being near thinking rocks makes you fat because this is the 237th time humanity has invented computers and 236th time it's been blasted back into hunter-gatherers by evil robots. After a while evolution cottoned on. Hope y'all enjoy your diets when I've got a million calories sitting pretty in my aorta

i hope the character design people just game the system by alternating between most-diversity-points and least-diversity-points characters to make sure the roster is within tolerance with the least effort
