  • This girl is on her way to obesity. She is quite ignorant of good nutrition.

  • This video is absolutely obscene! People get fat from eating excess unnatural carbohydrates. Sugars, wheat, soy, non-fat-high-carb garbage.

  • @Jazzabelle85 Those are fantastic results. Also, try to go local as much as possible, and stick to grass-fed beef, it's much better than grain fed!

  • @OramAndy I watched Fat Head just yesterday! I absolutely loved it. I immediately told other to watch it. I learned so much from it. I have experienced it in the past 2 months myself. I've been eating more fat than ever before, just cut carbs and I've lost 25 lbs in 8 weeks time, without ANY exercise. I'm living proof that calorie in/calorie out is not as simple as it sounds.

  • @adamdevo People on the Atkins diet actually consume more calories. This isn't breaking any laws of the universe. People on the Atkins diet burn more of their calories rather than storing them as fat. Here: "Rats with access to high-fructose corn syrup gained significantly more weight than those with access to table sugar, even when their overall caloric intake was the same." That's quoting the results of a study by Princeton University. Even at the same caloric intake, some rats were fatter.

  • @turoniner There's a guy on here, who was actually directing his comment at you, who has lost 55 lbs by switching off grains and to bacon. There are tons more like him. A person would most likely have to eat more carb-rich food (by weight) to be full than the same person eating fat-rich food. This is because the intake of fat signals your brain that you're full. Fat also takes a while to digest, unlike grains, so you're full for longer. And I am not saying that eating more will make you fat.

  • @Jazzabelle85 I actually know a guy who eats trash and doesn't work out at all, and he's ripped. And to further the calorie argument, zero calorie diet sodas have been shown to cause more weight gain than calorie-rich non-diet sodas. Have you seen Fat Head? If not, you should watch it right away, you would enjoy it.

  • @adamdevo Nothing is the point.

  • @SubZeroSkyLine what @OramAndy says. But I guess there is no point in discussing the complex human body with narrow-minded people like you. If it were that simple, there would be NO skinny people that eat a lot and don't exercise... and those people actually exist, believe it or not.

  • @adamdevo you're totally missing the points. sure 1,500 calories equal 1,500 calories DUH, but it's about what carbs and fat DO to your body. I am saying that if you consume the same AMOUNT of calories in fat as well as carbs, the carbs are what make you fat and spike your blood sugar. don't be so narrow minded.

  • @OramAndy Well you made a LOT of leaps. 1) Carbs DO raise insulin levels which raises nutrient UPTAKE. Not necessarily body fat percentage. Just uptake. You could stay at maintenance levels with right caloric balance. 2) It's plausible to say most anything. You could just as plausibly say that on a high fat diet he was eating more 3) A high "grain" dieter could easily be healthier and lighter (with most vegetables, legumes, and whole grains) than a high-fat dieter (bacon, cheese). Sorry, friend.

  • @OramAndy nothing. whats your point?
