Right, time to lose weight.

Yes, that is why I am changing my lifestyle.

Eating no carbs? You think you're going to spend the rest of your life eating no carbs? You know that's incredibly unhealthy and unreasonable? Here's a simple idea around a change of lifestyle that is realistic and maintainable....don't drink three glasses of wine a night...400-500 calories a day saving right there.

When I have got to a good weight I can on occasion eat refined carbs and sugars. And no it isnt 'incredibly unhealthy and unreasonable'. Mankind didnt have refined carbs or sugars till about 200 years ago. And no, not drinking red wine is NOT realistic.

LOL Ok, I'll leave you to your pseudo-science mumbo jumbo. When you finally crack the science make sure you go to Africa to spread the word there, maybe help lift those poor uneducated people from their obesity crisis too.

Munchies_Matt

What on earth are you on? It is not 'pseudo-science' to state, correctly, that refined carbs and sugars are a relatively recent introduction to our diet and that hence not eating them is in no way dangerous, or odd. And WTF has Africa got to do with it?

Your original post talked about carbs, not refined carbs and refined sugars. My reply was about carbs, you are now talking about refined carbs ergo are now fighting a straw-man argument as your actual arguments hold no weight.

Well since plant fiber is a carb, dont you suppose I was referring to the usual rice, potatoes, flour trio? (not to mention sugars)

Wow, I didnt realise me wanting to lose weight was such an argument. Apparently to some it is. You for example.

LOL so now we need to know what you mean, not what you say? Regardless, not eating refined carbs is fairly unrealistic too.

I didn't say it was, I think it's fairly obvious the arguments I was referring to are your arguments that losing weight involves knowledge if chemistry, that it is complicated, that you can maintain a no-carb lifestyle and all the other things you (and others) have repeatedly said on this thread. Seeing as it looks like you're finally out of anything of merit to say there is no point dragging this onto semantics.

So you never heard of the GI diet, refined carbs? Really? Do we need to tell you everything?

F-ES Sitecore wrote:

Because white rice, potatoes, and white flour is impossible not to eat? FFS get real would you.

No I didnt. I never mentioned chemistry.

Garbage fad diet that won't help you lose weight in the long-term.

I said fairly unrealistic, not impossible....it's even in the text you quoted. Straw-man argument.

You might not have mentioned the literal word chemistry, but when you talk about sugars, fats, insulin and their effects that is chemistry - "the scientific discipline involved with compounds composed of atoms, i.e. elements, and molecules, i.e. combinations of atoms: their composition, structure, properties, behavior and the changes they undergo during a reaction with other compounds"

You are wrong and full of shit.

See, you are fighting still. Since your first comment you have been antagonistic, negative, and combative. This post of yours just exposes you true intent. Why? Had a bad day? Compensating? Someone damaged you as a kid and you are angry at the world?

Still got no actual arguments I see so are resorting to ad hominem. F-ES: 3 Matt: 0
