[quote=Anonymous]I feel like the default should be: stay physically active, eat what feels right. And we should only deviate from that if there is a problem. Like if weight starts to interfere with your ability to be active or impacts mobility. Or obviously if there are heart disease or blood sugar issues that call for a shift in diet. But it's weird to me that the default is always "Lose 10 pounds, watch your calories and fat/sugar/carb/etc. intake." I'm not saying dieting is bad, I just don't understand why it is the default. My body can do everything I ask of it, and it demands food to do those things. I give it food. I could probably calorie restrict and "optimize" my weight, but why? I don't have a single physical or medical indication that my weight is an issue. As far as anyone can tell, I'm very healthy. So no, I don't want to introduce the constant and stressful watching of food intake to my otherwise healthy, happy life. Why?[/quote]
