this idea that losing weight or gaining weight is simply a matter of calories in/ calories out and that the source of those calories doesnt matter is complete bs.

there is plenty of research out there showing A CALORIE IS NOT A CALORIE.

proteins, carbs, and fats all have very different effects on the metabolism, such as effect on homrome levels (insulin spike, glucagon, ect)...source of the calorie will also effect hunger n appetite, thermic effects, ect, ect, ect.

eating 300 cals or ben n jerrys/krispy kreme dounuts is goin to yeild a very different effect then eating 300 cals of baked chicken breast with veggies.

there are plenty of studies out there showing that diets with different macronutrient ratios but the same caloric intake have produced different results in a persons body composition.

this nonsense goes along with the idea that protein is protein...its just complete bs.

Why do you even open a thread on this BS theory?

TA is delusional and psychotic. Eating the wrong stuff makes you sick at least.

Just let it rest in peace.

I must admit Ive even been tempted to try his methods just cos shit food is cheaper where i am

but at the end of the day im sure my body would utilise a lean chicken breast , brown rice and green beans for fat loss and muscle rather than a donut and cream etc

You are wrong. Eat your chicken breast AND whatever you want.
