What is the best diet out there?

anyone tried that intermittent fasting?

Anybody try exercise and eating good food in moderation ? - no? that's why America is so fat - and you see insulin commercials on TV all the time.

@BobGrant45 Yes, if you want to massively increase your risk of heart disease, bowel cancer and type-2 diabetes. There is literally no scientific evidence to support an all meat diet and it is just a variation on the failed Atkins diet.

@BobGrant45 Well that meme is certainly all the evidence I need🤦‍♂️

I didn’t change it for weight loss reason, but originally going vegan I lost a good amount of weight. Then I switched to high carb vegan and now I’m down almost 30 pounds.

I also feel my best now too.

@MorbidCynic high carb vegan...i need to look into that...but i love meat

MorbidCynic · F

@LILY61 there are actually really good meat replacements these days. It’s not like it used to be when I became vegetarian 11 years ago 😅 brands like the beyond meats (burgers, ground “beef”, and sausage) are REALLY great. So is Gardein and Qourn. You can even make your own meat replacements.

But I’m a carbovore, so I guess it’s easier for me hahah

Intermittent fasting is a bad idea; you'll just end up eating more because you're so hungry.

If you want to diet and lose weight, cut down or eliminate things that are high in sugar - anything over 15g of sugar per 100 g.

Cutting out fat is nowhere near as effective, and low fat alternatives often have more sugar.

LILY61

@SW-User it is soooo hard to do and i don't take sugar in my drinks anymore

SW-User

@LILY61 That's a great start. Just take it slow. See if you can cut or reduce sugar to certain food items a little at a time.

your weight and shape are the result of a lifestyle. in the end physical activities and whole foods define weight and shape.

so I feel eating 70% fresh vegetables, 20% starches, 10% fresh animal parts in combination with at least 1 hour of active movement every day sets a standard. and then you can eat what you want.

LILY61

@Tracos thanks for taking this seriously. the 10% fresh animal parts made me giggle though

A couple or more days a week I do just a brunchtime meal and dinner

Moonpenny · F

Do very low calorie for two weeks (800-900 cals), then go up to 1000-1200 and do moderate exercise all the time. You can eat meat but try and make your diet very low-carb but you do need some.

Sorry! Had to change some of this....it was a bit garbled!

I did it to lose 15 lbs and it worked. Then if I started to creep up I’d just fast for 20 hours which also worked. Now I’m vegan and I don’t have the creeping up problem.

LILY61

@SW-User i just can't stand the idea of not eating meat...if i were left alone in the woods with a bow and arrow....poor Bambi, thumper, Yogi, Rocky and Bullwinkle would be in deep crap

SW-User

@LILY61 Very few of us are hunting in the woods. I could no longer support the animal agriculture that is destroying the planet more than transportation.

I’m trying the keto diet just started it But I lost two pounds my first week

LILY61

@Myself11 is it easy?

Myself11 · 61-69, M

@LILY61 yes just have to count carbs and keep the sugar down

Myself11 · 61-69, M

@LILY61 google low carb diet

samueltyler2 · 80-89, M

I lost 40 pounds with weight watchers. Being careful to this day, I gained less than 10 of it back. Now I fluctuate within 2-3 pounds.

Keeper · M

I usually lose weight once I stop drinking beer.

But that's not any fun.

LILY61

@Keeper i had to stop drinking...grrrrrr...but yeah, that is fattening

Subsumedpat · 36-40, M

The intermittent fasting works. Of course when you get it off you then still have the problem of keeping it off.

JohnOinger · 41-45, M

@LILY61 So what do you think of Jason Mompa & Would You Do Him

LILY61

@JohnOinger he gives me the willies'. i used to love him on North shore. he was so cool on that.

JohnOinger · 41-45, M

@LILY61 nice

texasdaddydom · 51-55, M

6-6-12 times between eating worked for me

LILY61

@texasdaddydom what is that?

texasdaddydom · 51-55, M

@LILY61 those are the times between eating meals 6 hours between breakfast and lunch 6 hours between lunch and dinner and then 12 hours between dinner and breakfast. Why do people say eat less more often but that did not work for me this did along with sensible portions of healthy food and exercise

revenant · F

Fasting is the best for me.

LILY61

@revenant how long do you fast for?

revenant · F

@LILY61 I can do 2 days. It liberates the mind once you have taken the initiative.

samueltyler2 · 80-89, M

Thanks for the heart.

LILY61

@samueltyler2 u r welcome. i just hate spending all that money when i should be spending less.

samueltyler2 · 80-89, M

@LILY61 if you really need to lose weight try weight watchers. You don't eat their food. You just learn what to eat and portion size.

I have other bug photos I might send if you'd like.
