Is it all about calories?

Question

If its all about the calories, does that mean the amount of food consumed is unimportant if it is healthy and low calories. I eat none stop, but I eat such low cal no fat foods I stay under 1200 calories a day. Is something wrong with this?

Answer 1

If the food is healthy, nutritious and if you can work enough fiber in there, that's good. You have to consume a little fat, too. No more than two protein bars per day. But it's only one side of the equation.

For total health, you also have to exercise. But you knew that, right?

I wish you good health!

Answer 2

if you want to lose weight fast and naturally, check out the transition kit.

This system is a clinically-proven method of weight management based on the glycemic index of foods, behavior modification and exercise. Glycemic index (GI) measures how quickly foods impact blood sugar levels.

This theory proves that it doesn't matter how many calories you consume daily, it matters the most depends on how many sugar or carbohydrates you consume daily. They have the biggest impact to increase blood sugar. When blood sugar increase, your brain will tell your body to store fat. That's the reason why most of the people counting how many calories they consume daily but still gain weight.

The Transitions Low Glycemic Food Book is an easy-to-use guide to help you identify common low glycemic foods and beverages. It is designed to be used at home or on the go as your first resource whenever you want to select a food that can help you reach your weight loss, health and dietary goals.

Other helpful nutritional supplements aiding weight lose include Carbohydrate Absorption Inhibitor, Stimulant-free Fat Conversion Inhibitor, etc.

P.S. My makeup instructor uses the kit and drop from size 12 to 2 in 2 years. If I have never seen her old photos, I wouldn't believe what kind of dramatical change she has been through! She looks very healthy and gorgeous, unlike others who reduce weight dramatically but look sick and unhealthy.

Answer 3

No, its not all about calories, you should watch Calories, fat and sugar. Also, don't go for low calories food, unless this are fruit and vegetables. Many low calories food on the market have low fiber and lots of sugar or sodium that are not good in excess either.

Go for healthy and small portions instead.

Answer 5

Calories just mean how much energy a food has. It's important to find out where those calories came from rather than just worrying about the total amount. You don't want empty calories meaning those that come from added sugar or ones that come from saturated fat.

Answer 6
