|
Date: July 4th, 2022 12:24 PM Author: Razzle-dazzle senate crotch Good tasting is in the eye of the beholder but if you like potatoes you can easily do this with potatoes, an egg a day, and a multivitamin to hit what you're missing. Potato diet is very, very cheap and easy and it's almost impossible to eat too many calories.
Pound of potatoes is 350 calories so to even get to 1,000 calories (with the egg) you have to eat a tick under 3 pounds. Assuming you pig out and have five pounds of potatoes we're still only talking about 1700 calories most people will lose weight on that. There's a reason this shit works |

Date: July 4th, 2022 12:30 PM Author: hideous multi-colored death wish boiling water I mean if your sole concern is losing weight it might work for some but you would lose lots of muscle at the same time to begin with if you have any, plus you are going to be malnourished due to lack of animal protein/saturated fat etc.
Also many people who need to lose a significant amount of weight tend to be sensitive to carbs so a carb heavy diet like this probably wouldn’t do much for them. If you’re going to do something like that it would be far superior to due a low carb diet and focus on fatty animal meat, eggs, etc. as that is more satiating and nutritious. Your calories would be low but your nutrition would be much higher. Of course it’s much more expensive than eating only potatoes like a peasant though. |
|
Date: July 4th, 2022 1:11 PM Author: Razzle-dazzle senate crotch Sure-- there's infinite ways to do this, the potato diet is just one cheap and easy way to lose weight quickly. The egg and multivitamin is enough for the other stuff and this isn't intended to be forever. I haven't done it, but in principle it would even be possible to do for someone with no kitchen or any form of heat by just doing canned in water potatoes.
But all of this is somewhat beside the point. The point is people who say they "can't" lose weight or "can't afford to lose weight" are flaming, they are choosing not to, because literally anybody could do the potato diet and most could also do the diet you describe. |

Once you're at your ideal weight you can go back to eating whatever and that includes whatever meat you like. If you want something sweet, you can add honey to your potato. If you want a snack, eat a potato. Wendy's sells baked potatoes a la carte. Taco Bell doesn't directly serve potatoes, but they sell cheesy fiesta potatoes. You can order them on the app or the drivethrough minus the sour cream and cheese but with extra potato. This literally could not be easier.

Date: July 4th, 2022 7:23 PM Author: Deep candlestick maker I made a thread about this discovery years ago when I saw whole kernels of corn in my shit. It made me realize that your body does not absorb all of the food that you eat. If you were to eat 1000 K of corn what amount woukd pass through you undigested and unabsorved? It's patently obvious that calories in cannot be measured so carefully. I can rant about this for ever. There's no way your body is absorbing 10,000 calories from a while cheesecake. It's going to let some of that shit pass straight thru to the toilet. |

Date: July 4th, 2022 1:21 PM Author: Adulterous submissive becky There's some truth to it, but it leaves a lot missing from the picture.
Microplastics, processed sysco slop, mutated monsanto trash, etc. That shit all fucks with hormones and lowers metabolism. So effectively calories out goes down. Also could make you more likely to binge eat/overeat because you aren't satiated. So calories in goes up.
Depending on what you eat and how you exercise calories can go to or come from muscle, and go to or come from fat. Typically your body will burn fat and glycogen up to a certain point and then start to break down muscle. It's usually not a concern unless you are doing heavy cardio, but it might be with all of our jacked up hormones these days. |

Just because you're putting in 5,000 calories doesn't necessarily mean your body is aborbing 5,000 calories. I'm just making shit up, but it sure seems to me that if you ate like 5,000 calories in one meal, your body is not going to take in those calories the same way they would if it was 5,000 over the course of the day. |

Date: July 4th, 2022 6:27 PM Author: filthy mother Calories is calories out accurately describes the long term dynamics of weight loss or gain and is basically irrefutable unless you propose to refute physics
It's not a nutritional be all end all (although fasting and low calorie diets are pretty overpowered in terms of health outcomes). But like 80% of Americans could improve their health outcomes if they'd just reduce their calorie intake meaningfully below their expenditure |
|
Date: July 4th, 2022 7:16 PM Author: hideous multi-colored death wish boiling water Lol where does the “refute physics” meme come from? A person’s body metabolizes different types of food differently even if they have the same number of calories. The result on body chemistry and body composition is likewise different.
Of course as a general rule it can help people lose weight but the real culprit is the type of food people are eating that is damaging their bodies, disrupting their hormones and metabolic processes, etc.

Date: July 4th, 2022 8:10 PM Author: filthy mother Your first paragraph is vague handwaving that ignores the main issue.
If someone has a caloric deficit, then they will lose weight, whether their calories come from snickers bars or steaks or a balanced diet. Losing weight has a whole host of positive health associations, probably play least partially because excess fat increases cellular senescence
This doesn't mean that a snickers bar diet has much to recommend to it compared to normal diet. But it does mean that you can lose weight on such a diet, and will experience certain positive health effects from that weight loss (and if one has a really big caloric deficit, one might even experience some of the benefits of intermittent fasting incidentally)
Improved health outcomes for a huge percentage of (fat) people is actually really fucking simple: eat less than you burn. Also eat some variety so you don't get weird nutritional issues. No need to overcomplicate shit |

2. eats primarily whole and unprocessed foods in reasonable quantities
3. routinely engages in physical activity

Fats love to scream and yell that sensible, normal eating is some kind of unachievable nightmare regimen that no mentally normal person can maintain. The truth is the fats have a mental disorder that prevents them from making a few simple lifestyle changes because they are addicted to eating and lack the simple discipline to move around for an hour every day. |
