I also use the time to plan the next chapter in a book or listen to a book. The 4, calories is easier than I thought it would be I had it cinched eight hours into today with plenty of breaks.
By cinched, I mean I can mostly do nothing for the rest of the day, and I'll reach 4, calories. In the next posts, I'll be passing on some diet information. My diet includes no animal products or oils like olive oil. It's starch based with fruits and vegetables. The picture below is of today's lunch. Potatoes, cabbage, cauliflower, and carrots. It's in a family sized serving bowl.
You lost me there; I like my meat, dairy, and olive oil too much for that. I'd rather eat those things and put in an extra thousand steps or two per day.
We've all made our own diet decisions by now. It will be necessary to consume some fat to maintain weight a high activity level. When I have that need, I may find some animal products are required. Getting 4, calories a day is cutting into my writing time, so it will take a few days of short posts to develop the reasons why I eat the way I do.
After I lose enough weight, I may be forced to change some things. For now, my opinions on the optimum diet for health come from Dr. McDougall who wrote "The Starch Solution.
I've read all the ones that are online. If anyone is interested, Dr. McDougall has a website and a forum. Carbohydrates can't turn to fat. Carbohydrates control hunger. This post may be somewhat controversal. I trust Dr. McDougall more than anyone else concerning healthy food. If you want his complete story, I suggest reading "The Starch Solution. The controversial statement is: Carbohydrates cannot turn to fat. This includes sugar. Before you jump on me, please click the link at the top of the post and at least read the section titled: Excess Starch Does Not Turn to Body Fat , The human body does not have a process to turn excess carbohydrates into fat.
Instead, it turns it to heat. The body has the capacity to store about two pounds of carbohydrates in the muscles and liver. At some level below this, we get real hunger pangs that we feel in the stomach. Some are addicted to refined sugars, and they may have cravings all the time. Note: I reserve the right to change my opinions at any time as I learn new and accurate information. First, let me state Dr.
McDougall would not agree with almost anything I say about higher exercise levels. He and his staff as well as most of his followers on his forum are against calorie counting. Calorie counting works for me, so I use it. It doesn't mean everyone needs to. If the body cannot turn carbohydrates into fat, then a person cannot gain weight unless they eat fat.
This is why I keep my fat intake less than five percent of the calores eaten. This is only possible by avoiding all animal products, all added oils, and all nuts. Our muscles and brains work most efficiently on glucose, which is not found in animal products or oils. Yes, we do need fats to survive and to be healthy, but most of us have sufficient fat stores to meet this need.
I do not consider the Huffington Post to be a reliable source. I don't have time to look for the underlying primary source to see if it's quoted correcty or even if it's a reliable peer reviewed study. However, if a person doesn't eat any carbs, the body goes into ketosis, and people lose weight by making themselves sick.
