[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]IME people who love cheese find it easy to eat too many calories from cheese. All Atkins/Keto does is help you restrict calories, so if you can easily overeat any kind of low carb food, you’re going to have to stay away from that thing or else count calories (and it seems like people like low carb because it makes it easier to avoid counting calories while still restricting them).[/quote]

Thanks, this is exactly my problem. I love cheese and happily eat it on/with everything. On Atkins I would eat it with every meal and for snacks. May have to cut it out except for cream in my coffee.[/quote]
It wasn’t the cheese that was hindering your success. It was that you were still eating too many carbs. Seriously. [/quote]

No, they were eating too many calories. It always comes down to calories. [/quote]

This. There are no replicated high quality studies supporting the contention that being “in ketosis” changes the conversion of calories into fat. [/quote]
The point is that OP wasn’t *in* ketosis. [/quote]

and my point was that Ketosis does. not. matter. At the end of the day weight/fat is lost when you are in a calorie deficit. doesn't matter if those calories are from fat, carbs or protein. [/quote]
You’ve been reading 90s diet books again. Go have a snackwells. They’re low cal! [/quote]

And you can go jump on the next diet bandwagon. In the end ALL diets accomplish the same thing weight loss through calorie reduction. Hundreds of different ways to do that, look up the guy who lost weight eating only twinkies. [/quote]

You are ignoring that there is actual science behind low carb diets though.  Eating low carb keeps your blood sugar stable throughout the day which means you feel less hungry and don't "need" to eat like you do when you are eating a bunch of carbs.  White rice is simply not going to keep you feeling full the way that an omelet would.  I love pasta, bread, rice, potatoes, corn....but I also know that those food trigger hunger in mean, not because I'm weak willed but because my blood sugar literally goes on a roller coaster ride after eating that stuff.  For me, I have MUCH better luck sticking with Keto friendly foods.  I feel and look better, I have more energy, my lab work looks great.  There is no downside in my opinion.[/quote]

Why are you trying to lean on science without actually citing to science?[/quote]
