[quote=Anonymous]I agree with most things posted! It IS about calories in vs. calories out. Most people are not counting their calories correctly (see the poster who was drinking a crap ton of extra calories from her coffee creamer alone). When I was obese, I thought I was eating less than I actually was, and it's easy to overlook all the extra calories you add in drinks, snacks, tasting food while you're cooking, "splurges" on the weekend, alcohol, etc. Peloton 1-3x a week mixed in with other things? Fine. But if that's all you're doing? Terrible for you. Protein is totally overrated. We need it, but not in the crazy amounts many suggest. People ought to eat wayyyy more carbs. Specifically, nutritious carbs with lots of fiber. Exercise is a big key to losing, and keeping weight off. I'll add: Metabolism is not something you're born with that you cannot change. Eating better quality foods and getting good regular exercise will increase your metabolism, and help you burn more calories even during the times you're sitting on the sofa. [/quote]
