    Yep, way to many people over eat, and it has nothing to do with what’s in the food, people are just super seditaty these days and eat constantly.

    Clicking the downvote button doesn’t magically make me wrong. There is a reason that you can eat straight Twinkies for a month and watch the calories and still lose weight. You’re not smarter than physics.

      Bitching about down votes doesn’t magically make you right. You’re being downvoted because what you said is idiotic.

      It has a lot to do with what’s in the food. Sure, if you eat nothing but 1500 calories of Twinkies every day, when you were eating 3000 balanced calories, you’ll lose weight.

      That is about 12 Twinkies. Not even an entire box of Twinkies. And that’s all you get to eat in a day.

      It would be much easier to reduce calories if half of them were from vegetables and the other half from meat. Feeling hungry has a lot to do with why diets fail. You can’t just apply physics to the human body and expect emotional and hormonal changes not to have an impact on the choices that human makes.

        Naa I’m being down voted because people want the easy way out, all the time. You’re the same type that runs with the Healthy at any size. The same groups that promote that sudo science bullshit. No where did I say it was healthy to eat Twinkies and lose weight, but acting like people are fat because of the food that’s offered is a fucking cop out.

          Actual studies have been done on this. You’re not only wrong but you’re scientifically wrong.

          https://clinicalcenter.nih.gov/about/news/newsletter/2019/summer/story-01.html#:~:text=This is the first study that shows causality%3A ultra-processed,and they eat fewer calories.

          Eating ultra processed foods are not only unhealthy, they also cause you to eat more than you would if you were eating exactly the same thing with real food.

          An argument you’ll note that is not only consistent with my guest comment, but actually argues for people doing more work than they’re likely doing to lose weight.

          Literally every point you made was incorrect.

            Subjects were instructed to consume as much or as little as desired.

            The study also lasted 2 weeks and had less than 40 people in it. This is a bullshit study, we know people are going to eat ultra processed foods because it tastes good. Hell I’m guilty of it even, I will eat an entire pizza on my own if I don’t stop myself. This study should say, people lack will power to not eat free fast food… it’s a complete nothing burger of a study.

              Ah yes, the age old, “I know better than an actual scientist because their science disagrees with my feelings

                No the age old, one study with no peer review and less than 50 people who were told to eat whatever they want is not an good study. It’s a joke.

                  Buddy either you have hard data to back your claim or you don’t. You’re saying that diet has less impact on weight than exercise and that’s literally false. It’s the most wrong thing you could say and still sound like you’re speaking English.
