not all calories are equal, proteins/fats/carbs are metabolized differently

Quote (IareBruno14 @ Jul 26 2015 03:34am)

The fact is the more carbs you eat the more you're required to exercise just to prevent fat storage, carbs have a much larger effect on insulin than protein and fats do because they're directly metabolized to glucose, and because carbs are the first source of energy used by the body you aren't burning any fat unless you burn through most of the carbs first. If you don't, excess glucose in your blood results in a higher insulin spike and more fat storage

Too much fat is harmful for many different reasons to mental and physical health

eating healthy is a great first step but the extra weight will continue to be a danger while it is there thus not allowing "fat and healthy" to be accurate

It is possible to be overweight change your ways to eating healthy yet remain overweight because of maintaining rather than eating at a deficit which is better than eating unhealthy but it still poses health risks

I know people that eat quite normal but are just fat cuz genetics.

I mean maybe they could loose the weight but it would be much harder for them than me cuz their body is much different than mine

I have fibromyalgia, the pain medications don't help, they hinder my ability to stay awake, which obviously stops me from being a mother and also being active/getting exercise.



My problem is that I eat like shit
I make sure to focus on my son eating well and then take care of everything necessary around the house (dishes, laundry, general cleaning up after a five year old) then I just don't give a fuck about what I grab to eat.
It also hurts to stand to prepare food, I know I'm making excuses, so I know that that's my issue.
I don't eat much but what I do eat isn't always the best.
I legitimately hate fast food, so I try to avoid it, but that doesn't mean my diet is great.

that's true, but it doesn't contradict what he said

the relation between calories (energy) and mass, whether it be muscle or adipose is direct and pure
