De novo lipogensis is not a process that stops lipolisis. Lipolisys is triggered by hormone sensitive lipase and only two primary things that affect is activity are catecholamines and insulin, insulin inactivates HSL, so basically anything that rises insulin levels makes fat mobilization impossible, but it has nothing to do with de novo lipogenesis.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u2022  Carbohydrates are excellent for growth (as well as fat gain)\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EExcessive calories are excellent for fat gain. If you eat high carb every day but don\u0027t go over maintenance calories you simply cannot gain fat.

I actually do appreciate it, and helps me with writing (I\u0027m not a writer and never really have been). Especially helps me with how I come off as which I\u0027m always concerned with..\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EMy intention by adding so many different extremes (such as 4-5k) and loading the reader with information was to remove any fear of fats\/portion control. I seemed to focus more on fat being good and carbs being bad in this article, simply to destroy any lingering presumptions left over from mainstream dieting advice. I could have done a better job with supporting the carb side of the article, but these days in the mainstream and government view it\u0027s quite the opposite already. I\u0027m also not looking to teach the reader how to grow but rather remove fat, and ketosis is very effective for this.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EI would have to disagree on some points you have though (and agree on others). In descending order:\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E- I do agree the calories (and the 4-5k) ideology was overlooked a bit (but again, for reason)\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n- I\u0027m not well read enough in the literature to address the granularity regarding de novo lipogenesis and its interference with lipolysis, unfortunately.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n-  I cycle carbs as well, and sometimes I\u0027ll even have 800g+. I\u0027m actually messing around right now eating nothing but pizza (one meal per day, medium pepperoni pizza). I had 12 oreo doublestuf cakesters. I\u0027m doing this to test how easy it is to lean out (from the garbage I shoveled over thanksgiving week and the week prior). Back to around 10% and I don\u0027t see any reason why I shouldn\u0027t be able to keep losing\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n- Carb phobia is well founded and to be concerned about, it has it\u0027s uses. I won\u0027t disagree.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EAs for the random bits, GI and such is a bit of a grey territory to discuss if you\u0027re speaking from a chemistry point of view. There are lingering studies that show that nutrient type (whether fast or slow metabolized protein, or fast\/slow carb) spike insulin in about the same amounts. Also, another thing on glycemic index is that it is poorly understood. From wikipedia: \u0022A practical limitation of the glycemic index is that it does not take into account the amount of carbohydrate actually consumed. A related measure, the glycemic load, factors this in by multiplying the glycemic index of the food in question by the carbohydrate content of the actual serving\u0022. You\u0027ll also get people like kiefer from carbnite\/backloading saying that lower glycemic index\/load foods are worse than fast absorbing, because it keeps you in lipogenesis for longer periods of time (and thus limiting or deminishing the period you could be in fat burning).\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EYes, you can also get fat on ketosis. But even Robb Wolf has trouble considering how this is possible. In one podcast of his he says something along the lines of: \u0022Are people shoveling down quarts of cream every day with every meal?\u0022. The general idea is not to worry on calories but focus on the more important aspect of staying in a ketogenic state.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EAnyways, thanks for the input. Hope I hit some concerns of yours about the article. I probably won\u0027t go into this much further because I don\u0027t want to bog down readers even more than already -- this was quite the article information wise already.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E- Eric\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E------\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nEDIT: I just realized that I accidentally skipped over the part of you mentioning thermogenesis. I didn\u0027t want to leave this unspoken because it\u0027s somewhat important. Yes, there is the first law of thermodynamics. But, the caloric model tends to be a horrible model for diet, because the body treats each nutrient differently. Our focus is better pointed towards modifying our nutrient partitioning. Take a look at the bulletproof exec: He\u0027s low body fat and eats 4-5k calories a day. He also rarely exercises. The caloric model says this is impossible. There was also that one guy who has not ingested food nor water for the past 70 years (for religious reasons), and he is apparently as fit as a fiddle.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E      \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022pull-right\u0022\u003E\u003Cul class=\u0022links list-inline\u0022\u003E\u003Cli class=\u0022comment-reply first last\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022\/comment\/reply\/806\/5081\u0022\u003Ereply\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003C\/ul\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\n\n\u003Cdiv class=\u0022indented\u0022\u003E\u003Ca id=\u0022comment-5089\u0022\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\u0022comment comment-by-anonymous well clearfix\u0022 about=\u0022\/comment\/5089#comment-5089\u0022 typeof=\u0022sioc:Post sioct:Comment\u0022\u003E\n      \u003Cdiv class=\u0022user-picture\u0022\u003E\n    \u003Cimg typeof=\u0022foaf:Image\u0022 class=\u0022img-responsive\u0022 data-src=\u0022https:\/\/www.girlschase.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures\/circle-guest-85x85.png\u0022 src=\u0022https:\/\/www.girlschase.com\/sites\/all\/modules\/contrib\/lazyloader\/image_placeholder.gif\u0022 alt=\u0022mindfulness\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 title=\u0022mindfulness\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 \/\u003E\u003Cnoscript\u003E\u003Cimg typeof=\u0022foaf:Image\u0022 class=\u0022img-responsive\u0022 src=\u0022https:\/\/www.girlschase.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures\/circle-guest-85x85.png\u0022 alt=\u0022mindfulness\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 title=\u0022mindfulness\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 \/\u003E\u003C\/noscript\u003E  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \n    \u003Ch3 property=\u0022dc:title\u0022 datatype=\u0022\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022\/comment\/5089#comment-5089\u0022 class=\u0022permalink\u0022 rel=\u0022bookmark\u0022\u003EHello Eric,\nI really thought\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/h3\u003E\n  \n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022submitted\u0022\u003E\n            Posted by \u003Cspan rel=\u0022sioc:has_creator\u0022\u003E\u003Cspan class=\u0022username\u0022 xml:lang=\u0022\u0022 typeof=\u0022sioc:UserAccount\u0022 property=\u0022foaf:name\u0022 datatype=\u0022\u0022\u003Emindfulness (not verified)\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E on Friday, 7 December 2012  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022content\u0022\u003E\n    \u003Cspan rel=\u0022sioc:reply_of\u0022 resource=\u0022\/content\/weight-loss-men-23-tips-blow-your-mind\u0022 class=\u0022rdf-meta element-hidden\u0022\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cspan rel=\u0022sioc:reply_of\u0022 resource=\u0022\/comment\/5081#comment-5081\u0022 class=\u0022rdf-meta element-hidden\u0022\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field-items\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field-item even\u0022 property=\u0022content:encoded\u0022\u003E\u003Cp\u003EHello Eric,\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EI really thought you would not post my comment, I wanted to make some remarks rather out of the public than show it under article, it could sound a little harsh and my English could have been better to make it sound more friendly.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EBasically we would have to go deeper down in the nuances and probably most of the readers would not benefit from it, so I\u0027ll try to write more generally now and sum up at the end.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EFat\/carbs \u0027war\u0027 is all about context, basically everything is about context.

One thing to keep in mind with refeeding like this is that one needs to keep fat to absolute minimum, all of it will be stored, so it can\u0027t be really eating anything one wants as much as one wants.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EProblem most people have is that they eat very dense caloric food in excess, that is why all the \u0027fast food\u0027 is labeled as really bad. You eat two big macs with fries and coke in one sitting and you almost got 2000 calories, and that number of calories is around calorie requirement for regular joe having a desk job. Apart the fact that there are almost no vitamines, minerals etc. and I don\u0027t recommend this kind of food generally, the fact is that this food is roughly as good as any other, as long as you are not overeating.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EYou said you are experimenting and eat pizza, yes you can eat pizza and still loose fat, what it important is how much you eat it.  That is also why \u0027eating whole food\u0027 etc. is labeled as good, it is less dense in calories and it will keep one more full for longer period of times and this lead to eating less calories in the end.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EIf it fits your macros and caloric requirements for loosing fat is all good (roughly), I don\u0027t want to support eating not healthy, but some of the readers might get headache if I told them what I eat and I\u0027m under 10% all the time, with a lot of strength, like benching around 1.7 of my weight, all natural.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EAs for insulin, it is all about context again, some time you need it some times you don\u0027t. I wouldn\u0027t really attach myself to insulin index and GI as long as your body will be able to get into lipolisys mode. As a side note, fat burning process consists mainly from three stages, lipolisys (mobilization), transportation to skeletal muscles and then oxidation, so one can keep in mind than even if one managed to achieve state of lipolisis that fat still may not be burned at all and free fatty acids will be reestrified, they will go back to where they came from.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EEven the link from wikipedia says that fast absorbing carbs can be better because insulin level will go down quickly and no insulin means HSL can do its job and inform cells to release fatty acids. That is way intermittent fasting works so well, you basically for most of the day are in a state that favors lipolisys.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EAs for ketosis, the fact that body is using ketones for energy it does not mean excessive energy will not be stored as fat, it just won\u0027t dissapear. The two examples are just anecdotal evidences and I think we should not take into consideration some extremes that probably are not even real (like not eating for 70 years, even if it was possible for one man it still proves nothing for 99,99% of the people).\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003ETo sum up, I really can\u0027t agree that caloric model is a horrible model, I think it would be better to say that calories in and calories out are the core, the fundamentals you can build on and then you choose ketosis, IF, paleo or any other diet that fits you, but you still have to count calories. \u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EAnd even if one is not aiming to build great physique, one should do some kind of resistance training (2-3 times a week is enough then) to improve calorie partioning and prevent body from reaching for muscles when in calorie deficit.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThanks for the discussion Eric. Wanted to wish everybody good luck in they journey to great body, it is really achievable, just like learning seduction, it takes time and need you to be persistent :)\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E      \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022pull-right\u0022\u003E\u003Cul class=\u0022links list-inline\u0022\u003E\u003Cli class=\u0022comment-reply first last\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022\/comment\/reply\/806\/5089\u0022\u003Ereply\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003C\/ul\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\n\n\u003Cdiv class=\u0022indented\u0022\u003E\u003Ca id=\u0022comment-5093\u0022\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\u0022comment comment-by-node-author well clearfix\u0022 about=\u0022\/comment\/5093#comment-5093\u0022 typeof=\u0022sioc:Post sioct:Comment\u0022\u003E\n  \u003Cimg class=\u0022authortag\u0022 src=\u0022\/sites\/all\/themes\/custom\/girlschase\/images\/comment-author-1.png\u0022 alt=\u0022Author\u0022 width=\u002260px\u0022 height=\u002260px\u0022 \/\u003E    \u003Cdiv class=\u0022user-picture\u0022\u003E\n    \u003Ca href=\u0022\/users\/eric-reeves\u0022 title=\u0022View user profile.\u0022\u003E\u003Cimg typeof=\u0022foaf:Image\u0022 class=\u0022img-responsive\u0022 data-src=\u0022https:\/\/www.girlschase.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures\/picture-3295-1473593010.png\u0022 src=\u0022https:\/\/www.girlschase.com\/sites\/all\/modules\/contrib\/lazyloader\/image_placeholder.gif\u0022 alt=\u0022Eric Reeves\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 title=\u0022Eric Reeves\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 \/\u003E\u003Cnoscript\u003E\u003Cimg typeof=\u0022foaf:Image\u0022 class=\u0022img-responsive\u0022 src=\u0022https:\/\/www.girlschase.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures\/picture-3295-1473593010.png\u0022 alt=\u0022Eric Reeves\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 title=\u0022Eric Reeves\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 \/\u003E\u003C\/noscript\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \n    \u003Ch3 property=\u0022dc:title\u0022 datatype=\u0022\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022\/comment\/5093#comment-5093\u0022 class=\u0022permalink\u0022 rel=\u0022bookmark\u0022\u003ERe: Hello Eric, I really thought\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/h3\u003E\n  \n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022submitted\u0022\u003E\n            Posted by \u003Cspan rel=\u0022sioc:has_creator\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022\/users\/eric-reeves\u0022 title=\u0022View user profile.\u0022 class=\u0022username\u0022 xml:lang=\u0022\u0022 about=\u0022\/users\/eric-reeves\u0022 typeof=\u0022sioc:UserAccount\u0022 property=\u0022foaf:name\u0022 datatype=\u0022\u0022\u003EEric Reeves\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E on Friday, 7 December 2012  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022content\u0022\u003E\n    \u003Cspan rel=\u0022sioc:reply_of\u0022 resource=\u0022\/content\/weight-loss-men-23-tips-blow-your-mind\u0022 class=\u0022rdf-meta element-hidden\u0022\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cspan rel=\u0022sioc:reply_of\u0022 resource=\u0022\/comment\/5089#comment-5089\u0022 class=\u0022rdf-meta element-hidden\u0022\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field-items\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field-item even\u0022 property=\u0022content:encoded\u0022\u003E\u003Cp\u003EHah, yes I don\u0027t really know who accepted your post but I would have regardless.

I just want to note to everyone that those other diets will work when followed, but they aren\u0027t as efficient or as healthy as fasting.  And since we are all about the law of least effort fasting is definitely the way to go. Also testosterone is drived from cholesterol! More of a reason to eat more fats specially meat and whole EGGS high in cholesterol. I tell all of my friends and strangers that I eat 2 1\/2 dozen whole eggs a week they freak out and start saying I must have high cholesterol. False! It\u0027s the opposite. Once I started eating more fats like eggs with olive oil my weight dropped quickly. I felt great.  I have a few questions tho.. How much protein a day to you recommend? Currently I eat 56g the recommend daily allowance. I learned my lesson with protein when I was eating 200g(my bodyweight) everyday, I gained 10 lbs in about a week!. Also do you have any tips on buying whole foods in bulk? I tried the warrior diet which is a fasting diet that promotes whole foods a few months ago and I just went broke.

If you shovel in lots of protein\/fat but low carbs, the huge amount of food is going to spike your insulin HIGH. If you shovel in lots of carbs and no protein or fat, the same will happen. \u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EBudgeting can be tough, but also easy when you\u0027re trying to bulk. Try to stay away from low carb, because again (and one of the reasons the government advocates bread) it\u0027s not very cost efficient. \u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EBuy 5 lbs of rice or more (white sticky rice is good)\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nBuy bacon in bulk packs\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nBuy meat that is grain fed\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nBuy the cheapest milk gallons you can get.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nBuy the 5-dozen egg packs (safeway or costco)\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nBananas are good as well.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EWe\u0027re not concerned too much about health here (because again, bulking assumes you\u0027re at a decent health\/bodyfat levels anyhow), so whole foods don\u0027t matter too much. Grain fed meats have no omega 3\u0027s, but also less oemga6s, so the benefits grass fed become negligible when you start trying to bulk \/ shovel food.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EHope that helps bro\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E- Eric\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E-----\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EEdit: One other thing about bulking, try to not go too high in bodyfat levels. Bodyfat is strongly correlated with insulin resistance, so the higher you go the less nutrient uptake. It\u0027s often why bodybuilders cycle cutting and bulking, it\u0027s easy to put on mass when at low bodyfat.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E

IF definitely helped me more than any other diet. i was getting sick of cooking for every 2 hours. IF is more of a convenience with better results. I also learned bulking the hard way last year. I lost 25lbs then started bulking and gained all that weight back and probably only gained 2lbs of muscle if that. This also proved to me that most supplements are a waste. Like you noted all that extra protein turns to sugar. Not ideal for losing or gaining! I found that the best supplement after a good work out is chocolate milk. You get your macros, micros, simple sugars, and BCAAs. It\u0027s much tastier then the protein shakes. Anyone should try it out if you drink milk. Also to add a little to your car analogy and cholesterol.. I always heard cholesterol is oil for our bodies, or lubricant. It\u0027s in every part of us and lubricates every organ. Just like oil in a car, if you put good oil in your car it runs smoothly, if your put bad oil in your car it\u0027s sluggish, if you run out of oil your engine ceases.

I\u0027ve read in multiple nutrition books and articles that it messes up your hormone production(thyroid gland). I try to avoid it as much as possible but it\u0027s like sugar, it\u0027s in everything now.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003ETo anyone that plays sports, try taking shots of coffee creamer before your game for energy.  I did this when I played hockey, the whole team did actually and it worked great.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EAlso I want to warn anybody that bodybuilds. If you bulk and cut and bulk and cut, I\u0027m warning you now you will be very fat when your older... Here is why.. When you bulk you have an excess amount of calories. All of those extra calories make you fat! Even protein calories. No extra protein won\u0027t make you stronger or leaner. Everytime you have extra calories or are bulking your body creates fat cells. This is where fat gets stored(obviously). Your body cannot destroy fat cells! So as time goes by it will get harder to cut and easier to bulk. Eventually you have a lot of extra fat cells to store fat, and that is exactly what your body will do store fat.

Eventually you\u0027ll get to one meal per day, and if you do this that means you can eat as much garbage you want in an hour timespan. So like an entire medium pizza would be 2k-2.5k cals or something, and you\u0027ll be pretty full and still losing weight (if you don\u0027t keep eating afterwards) eating a pizza once every day.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E      \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022pull-right\u0022\u003E\u003Cul class=\u0022links list-inline\u0022\u003E\u003Cli class=\u0022comment-reply first last\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022\/comment\/reply\/806\/5133\u0022\u003Ereply\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003C\/ul\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\n\n\u003Cdiv class=\u0022indented\u0022\u003E\u003Ca id=\u0022comment-5137\u0022\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\u0022comment comment-by-anonymous well clearfix\u0022 about=\u0022\/comment\/5137#comment-5137\u0022 typeof=\u0022sioc:Post sioct:Comment\u0022\u003E\n      \u003Cdiv class=\u0022user-picture\u0022\u003E\n    \u003Cimg typeof=\u0022foaf:Image\u0022 class=\u0022img-responsive\u0022 data-src=\u0022https:\/\/www.girlschase.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures\/circle-guest-85x85.png\u0022 src=\u0022https:\/\/www.girlschase.com\/sites\/all\/modules\/contrib\/lazyloader\/image_placeholder.gif\u0022 alt=\u0022Knight\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 title=\u0022Knight\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 \/\u003E\u003Cnoscript\u003E\u003Cimg typeof=\u0022foaf:Image\u0022 class=\u0022img-responsive\u0022 src=\u0022https:\/\/www.girlschase.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures\/circle-guest-85x85.png\u0022 alt=\u0022Knight\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 title=\u0022Knight\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 \/\u003E\u003C\/noscript\u003E  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \n    \u003Ch3 property=\u0022dc:title\u0022 datatype=\u0022\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022\/comment\/5137#comment-5137\u0022 class=\u0022permalink\u0022 rel=\u0022bookmark\u0022\u003EOh, I get it now\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/h3\u003E\n  \n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022submitted\u0022\u003E\n            Posted by \u003Cspan rel=\u0022sioc:has_creator\u0022\u003E\u003Cspan class=\u0022username\u0022 xml:lang=\u0022\u0022 typeof=\u0022sioc:UserAccount\u0022 property=\u0022foaf:name\u0022 datatype=\u0022\u0022\u003EKnight (not verified)\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E on Saturday, 8 December 2012  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022content\u0022\u003E\n    \u003Cspan rel=\u0022sioc:reply_of\u0022 resource=\u0022\/content\/weight-loss-men-23-tips-blow-your-mind\u0022 class=\u0022rdf-meta element-hidden\u0022\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cspan rel=\u0022sioc:reply_of\u0022 resource=\u0022\/comment\/5133#comment-5133\u0022 class=\u0022rdf-meta element-hidden\u0022\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field-items\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field-item even\u0022 property=\u0022content:encoded\u0022\u003E\u003Cp\u003EToday (my second day of learning about IF) I went 3pm to 6pm.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nWill get smaller still!\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nSo you\u0027re saying I can eat anything in that time frame?\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nI ate avocado, peanut butter, cream and other stuff at 3pm.

I\u0027ll also be able to help others do the same, and it makes me incredibly happy seeing the responses and willingness of the people (like you) on this site.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EGlad to be here,\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nEric\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E      \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022pull-right\u0022\u003E\u003Cul class=\u0022links list-inline\u0022\u003E\u003Cli class=\u0022comment-reply first last\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022\/comment\/reply\/806\/5143\u0022\u003Ereply\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003C\/ul\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Ca id=\u0022comment-5142\u0022\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\u0022comment comment-by-anonymous well clearfix\u0022 about=\u0022\/comment\/5142#comment-5142\u0022 typeof=\u0022sioc:Post sioct:Comment\u0022\u003E\n      \u003Cdiv class=\u0022user-picture\u0022\u003E\n    \u003Cimg typeof=\u0022foaf:Image\u0022 class=\u0022img-responsive\u0022 data-src=\u0022https:\/\/www.girlschase.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures\/circle-guest-85x85.png\u0022 src=\u0022https:\/\/www.girlschase.com\/sites\/all\/modules\/contrib\/lazyloader\/image_placeholder.gif\u0022 alt=\u0022Anonymous\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 title=\u0022Anonymous\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 \/\u003E\u003Cnoscript\u003E\u003Cimg typeof=\u0022foaf:Image\u0022 class=\u0022img-responsive\u0022 src=\u0022https:\/\/www.girlschase.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures\/circle-guest-85x85.png\u0022 alt=\u0022Anonymous\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 title=\u0022Anonymous\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 \/\u003E\u003C\/noscript\u003E  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \n    \u003Ch3 property=\u0022dc:title\u0022 datatype=\u0022\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022\/comment\/5142#comment-5142\u0022 class=\u0022permalink\u0022 rel=\u0022bookmark\u0022\u003E\u0026quot;Your insulin resistance\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/h3\u003E\n  \n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022submitted\u0022\u003E\n            Posted by \u003Cspan rel=\u0022sioc:has_creator\u0022\u003E\u003Cspan class=\u0022username\u0022 xml:lang=\u0022\u0022 typeof=\u0022sioc:UserAccount\u0022 property=\u0022foaf:name\u0022 datatype=\u0022\u0022\u003EAnonymous (not verified)\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E on Saturday, 8 December 2012  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022content\u0022\u003E\n    \u003Cspan rel=\u0022sioc:reply_of\u0022 resource=\u0022\/content\/weight-loss-men-23-tips-blow-your-mind\u0022 class=\u0022rdf-meta element-hidden\u0022\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field-items\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field-item even\u0022 property=\u0022content:encoded\u0022\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0022Your insulin resistance increases throughout the day, so insulin-spiking foods should be saved for the evening\u0022\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003Ethis is plain wrong, insulin resistance is BAD because your pancreas needs to produce higher amounts of insulin to moderate blood sugar\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003Einsulin spiking foods late at night?!?

You do a good job of maintaining a focused, positive energy much like the other authors on this site. I can\u0027t resist giving some feedback\/making a few comments, for this topic is near to my heart if you\u0027ll pardon the pun. I know mindfulness has already touched on a few points, and I agree with his point that context is significant with regards to this topic; hopefully I\u0027m not being redundant. First, I think it\u0027s important to make a disclaimer to patients with chronic diseases\/therapies (for example chronic kidney disease, cirrhosis, diabetes, patients on long term anticoagulation etc.) that they should at least inform their physician(s) before initiating significant lifestyle changes in this regard. Also, the physiology of cholesterol and triglyceride metabolism and the pharmacology of lipid medications is still somewhat controversial in the scientific and medical community. One other point is that the primary source of energy for the brain is glucose. At any rate, nice job! Keep up the good work, I\u0027ll be looking for more of your work on the blog.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EOh and regarding vitamin D toxicity (as a disclaimer I may be biased in this area if you notice my user name) it is very rare, but possible at doses around more than 40,000 IUs daily.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EDan\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E      \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022pull-right\u0022\u003E\u003Cul class=\u0022links list-inline\u0022\u003E\u003Cli class=\u0022comment-reply first last\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022\/comment\/reply\/806\/5178\u0022\u003Ereply\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003C\/ul\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\n\n\u003Cdiv class=\u0022indented\u0022\u003E\u003Ca id=\u0022comment-5181\u0022\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\u0022comment comment-by-node-author well clearfix\u0022 about=\u0022\/comment\/5181#comment-5181\u0022 typeof=\u0022sioc:Post sioct:Comment\u0022\u003E\n  \u003Cimg class=\u0022authortag\u0022 src=\u0022\/sites\/all\/themes\/custom\/girlschase\/images\/comment-author-1.png\u0022 alt=\u0022Author\u0022 width=\u002260px\u0022 height=\u002260px\u0022 \/\u003E    \u003Cdiv class=\u0022user-picture\u0022\u003E\n    \u003Ca href=\u0022\/users\/eric-reeves\u0022 title=\u0022View user profile.\u0022\u003E\u003Cimg typeof=\u0022foaf:Image\u0022 class=\u0022img-responsive\u0022 data-src=\u0022https:\/\/www.girlschase.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures\/picture-3295-1473593010.png\u0022 src=\u0022https:\/\/www.girlschase.com\/sites\/all\/modules\/contrib\/lazyloader\/image_placeholder.gif\u0022 alt=\u0022Eric Reeves\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 title=\u0022Eric Reeves\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 \/\u003E\u003Cnoscript\u003E\u003Cimg typeof=\u0022foaf:Image\u0022 class=\u0022img-responsive\u0022 src=\u0022https:\/\/www.girlschase.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures\/picture-3295-1473593010.png\u0022 alt=\u0022Eric Reeves\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 title=\u0022Eric Reeves\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 \/\u003E\u003C\/noscript\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \n    \u003Ch3 property=\u0022dc:title\u0022 datatype=\u0022\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022\/comment\/5181#comment-5181\u0022 class=\u0022permalink\u0022 rel=\u0022bookmark\u0022\u003EI agree\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/h3\u003E\n  \n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022submitted\u0022\u003E\n            Posted by \u003Cspan rel=\u0022sioc:has_creator\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022\/users\/eric-reeves\u0022 title=\u0022View user profile.\u0022 class=\u0022username\u0022 xml:lang=\u0022\u0022 about=\u0022\/users\/eric-reeves\u0022 typeof=\u0022sioc:UserAccount\u0022 property=\u0022foaf:name\u0022 datatype=\u0022\u0022\u003EEric Reeves\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E on Sunday, 9 December 2012  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022content\u0022\u003E\n    \u003Cspan rel=\u0022sioc:reply_of\u0022 resource=\u0022\/content\/weight-loss-men-23-tips-blow-your-mind\u0022 class=\u0022rdf-meta element-hidden\u0022\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cspan rel=\u0022sioc:reply_of\u0022 resource=\u0022\/comment\/5178#comment-5178\u0022 class=\u0022rdf-meta element-hidden\u0022\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field-items\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field-item even\u0022 property=\u0022content:encoded\u0022\u003E\u003Cp\u003EI agree wholeheartedly with you Dan.

This is made easily through gluconeogenesis from proteins, which is why I don\u0027t advocate 100% fat diets (unless you\u0027re stuck and have tried everything to try and cure something like migraines).

However if your trying to lose stubborn belly fat fasting and ketosis will definitely help, actually they are in my opinion the best when it comes to stubborn fat.  Fasting means you don\u0027t eat for say 20 hours and then the other 4 hours of the day you can eat. Or you can not eat for 16 and then for 8 hours you can eat. Ketosis is a state at which your body is using fat for energy.  To enter ketosis one will have to eat fatty meals with protein. Carbs kick you out of ketosis because your body will use them for energy instead of fat, so it\u0027s reccomened to eat very little carbs.. 30g or less. Try to eat healthy foods... No processed foods or stuff with sugar. So basically lean protein, carbs(30g or less per day), healthy fats(lots of it). Eat minimal fruits, unlimited veggies. Fasting and ketosis are both frowned upon to a ton of professionals and other common people and are not considered normal by any means. They are very effective though.

Lost weight in the first 3 (first 2 by brute force excercising, then i finally changed my diet for the better) then experimented the other 3. Now i\u0027m mostly constant weight but i want to reach 10-12% body fat and see my abs which never happened before :)\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nFor some reasons i never really considered to go keto. Then i discovered fasting and now you convinced me to try ketogenic diet too. Recently i was messing up with Eat stop eat (just fast 1\/2 days a week) and Intermittent fasting.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EMy first questions are about bulletproof coffee: i tried it 2 times already and it tasted fine. I didn\u0027t have to much of a kick but it was noticeable, maybe too little butter (10-15g in a mug of coffee). Also i didn\u0027t have any MCT at hand.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n- does bulletproof coffee actually ends a fast? It wasn\u0027t clear in your post.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n- I found MCT in powder form, is it any good or better stick with coconut oil?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003ESecondly:\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n- dairy\/milk: is it important to have them from grass-fed\/organic sources?\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n- eggs: is it important to have them from free chickens (not caged)?\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n- cheese: which kinds do you recommend? i\u0027m guessing 20months+ with tends to have 0 carbs?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThirdly:\u003Cbr \/\u003E\ni\u0027m two days into this. The first day i ate only in the evening (continuing my IF from the days before). The second day i wanted to try bulletproof coffee so i had it for breakfast and then i had lunch (grilled salmon, 1 egg in butter, 100g+ cheese). Before lunch i went to the gym and in the afternoon the girl was over at my place for some extra activity. I wanted to skip dinner and fast to today but i felt very tired so i ate (3 eggs in butter, slice turkey breast in butter plus oil, some cheese again, tomato, some other few things).\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nThe night was a mess and i couldn\u0027t sleep much (but i must say it was 2 days i was going to bed at 4am+). So obviously today i\u0027m a mess too. This morning i had bulletproof coffee again and i\u0027m waiting for lunch.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nI go to the gym 3 times over 4 days (legs, chest\/triceps\/abs, back\/biceps days).\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n- Do i need to eat more? or is this ok and i\u0027m just going through adaptation?\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EIf this is kind of too long\/personal for publishing you can write me in private :)\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThanks man for the article!\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E      \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022pull-right\u0022\u003E\u003Cul class=\u0022links list-inline\u0022\u003E\u003Cli class=\u0022comment-reply first last\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022\/comment\/reply\/806\/5267\u0022\u003Ereply\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/li\u003E\n\u003C\/ul\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003Ca id=\u0022comment-5277\u0022\u003E\u003C\/a\u003E\n\u003Cdiv class=\u0022comment comment-by-anonymous well clearfix\u0022 about=\u0022\/comment\/5277#comment-5277\u0022 typeof=\u0022sioc:Post sioct:Comment\u0022\u003E\n      \u003Cdiv class=\u0022user-picture\u0022\u003E\n    \u003Cimg typeof=\u0022foaf:Image\u0022 class=\u0022img-responsive\u0022 data-src=\u0022https:\/\/www.girlschase.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures\/circle-guest-85x85.png\u0022 src=\u0022https:\/\/www.girlschase.com\/sites\/all\/modules\/contrib\/lazyloader\/image_placeholder.gif\u0022 alt=\u0022Anonymous\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 title=\u0022Anonymous\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 \/\u003E\u003Cnoscript\u003E\u003Cimg typeof=\u0022foaf:Image\u0022 class=\u0022img-responsive\u0022 src=\u0022https:\/\/www.girlschase.com\/sites\/default\/files\/pictures\/circle-guest-85x85.png\u0022 alt=\u0022Anonymous\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 title=\u0022Anonymous\u0026#039;s picture\u0022 \/\u003E\u003C\/noscript\u003E  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \n    \u003Ch3 property=\u0022dc:title\u0022 datatype=\u0022\u0022\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022\/comment\/5277#comment-5277\u0022 class=\u0022permalink\u0022 rel=\u0022bookmark\u0022\u003Ehey\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/h3\u003E\n  \n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022submitted\u0022\u003E\n            Posted by \u003Cspan rel=\u0022sioc:has_creator\u0022\u003E\u003Cspan class=\u0022username\u0022 xml:lang=\u0022\u0022 typeof=\u0022sioc:UserAccount\u0022 property=\u0022foaf:name\u0022 datatype=\u0022\u0022\u003EAnonymous (not verified)\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E on Wednesday, 12 December 2012  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \u003Cdiv class=\u0022content\u0022\u003E\n    \u003Cspan rel=\u0022sioc:reply_of\u0022 resource=\u0022\/content\/weight-loss-men-23-tips-blow-your-mind\u0022 class=\u0022rdf-meta element-hidden\u0022\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field-items\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv class=\u0022field-item even\u0022 property=\u0022content:encoded\u0022\u003E\u003Cp\u003EHey lepre!\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003ESounds like you\u0027re very motivated and on the right path, which is awesome.. we just need to tweak some stuff.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003ETo get down to the lower bodyfats, you\u0027ll typically need to focus on eating cleaner (less sugars and processed foods) while also eating less.
