Stop Eating Sugar
 

Added sugar in particular. Most fruit is okay.

Please watch this.

I can't do that.

Can't drink it either I guess...

I'm addicted to Full Throttle. Damn. I have at least 1 every two or three days.

lol true.

Eh, once a week or so it's fun. I love cookies.

Sugar is a carb, BTW. :D

welp I guess I'm dead

I was so excited this was on tonight. I've basically been doing this for the last 3 months and have lost almost 50 lbs.

Die.

I'm screwed. :facepalm:

You're married, who cares?

Yep, already talked about it with Buck....but Fathead has a lot of good info in it supporting this as well. More in line with Carbs though.

Yep.

That's a good documentary to watch, but like all documentaries, it's trying to push a point and it sways one way.

Replacing fat with sugar is stupid, but that's what our government has forced by saying Fat will kill you.

Also, let's be real here.

Too much sugar is bad. But sugar won't kill you.

High fructose corn syrup is the nasty stuff to watch out for. At least more than sugar.

Hi fructose corn syrup is fructose, which is the same as the sugar you're eating.

Stop eating sugar.

Better open up for Mr. Salty.

What kind of workout plan have you been on Buck?

No way you've lost nearly 50 pounds by just cutting out sugar. There's gotta be some cardio in there too.

Thanks.

I'm getting my cholesterol checked this week. I've replaced my sugar with fat and also my carbs with fat.

We'll see if my diet is killing me or saving my life. I'm certain it's the latter.

Modern society: "OMG, panic! Our diets are so unhealthy! This is a crisis of infinite importance!"

Meanwhile, everyone lives to 80.

Sounds too good to be true, huh?

Workout plan is minimal. Pushups/Situps mostly.

No, **** you, I'm not going to stop eating sugar.

Like every other kind of food, it's fine in moderation.

Yeah but going through life fat and stupid is no way to live.

I mean, I was once so ashamed of my body I didn't even consider the prospect of having any kind of sex life. Think about that for a second.

Stress and worry is bad for you as well.

Not being fat or having to worry about heart disease takes so much stress away.

Congrats though, and keep at it.

Fair point, but I do think obesity is a different issue entirely from sugar hysteria.

So I need to quit eating red meat and now sugar. I think I'll suck it up and just die happy instead.

I'm a believer in most everything is okay in moderation, not always a follower, but a believer.

The Red Meat one is bullshit though. There is actual science behind the sugar one.

Yeah, skinny people don't have heart attacks.

Agreed....moderation is the key. I do think that along with moderation people should be more aware of what they are putting in their body and how your body reacts to it.

Yeah, you see where I said "or having to worry about heart disease..."?

Do you see that part?

Do you Brock?

Skinny people who have heart attacks largely have them based on genetic factors.

FIELD MARSHALL MONTGOMERY: "I neither drink nor smoke and am a hundred percent fit."

WINSTON CHURCHILL: "I drink and smoke and I am two hundred percent fit."

Also stop smoking cigarettes and stop drinking so much god damn alcohol.

Unless you are ****ed by genetics like me. I look healthier than 99% of people but have been on high BP meds since I was 21. I couldn't do anything to control it. God damn parents are health nuts too, and none of us have ever been over weight. But we all have high BP.

Implying only fat people have heart attacks. If that wasn't what you meant, learn to write better.

I lost 75 lbs without jogging a block, lifting a weight or anything else, sitting in front of a computer monitor, studying and going to classes. Just, every time I'd get hungry I'd get some more ice water to fill my belly.

Weirdly, though, once I got to 195, I can't lose anything more, despite a prolonged sinus/viral thing where I consumed little more than water for weeks on end. Seriously I'd eat 10-12 peanut butter pretzels, or a couple sausage links, ambitious days I'd have a single meal of spaghetti and meatballs [I was so tired breathing through the mucus in my esophagus that cooking food was more tiring than I was hungry]. And I'd dip to MAYBE 193.

Start logging your food and send it to me after a week.

I'm betting it's sugar. My extremely high BP has lowered into the normal range since I cut sugar. Coincidence?

You don't actually have to worry about anything, really.

You lowered your BMR. Your body got used to surviving off of so few calories that your metabolism slowed.

I did not imply that at all.

GoChiefs II: The Buckening

I have a bachelor's in health and human performance, I am a certified personal trainer and I competed in Olympic lifting and still workout hard. I know the research. I tried everything as well with diet modification and nothing worked. I do feel better when I am low carbing it though. Some of us are just screwed!

Do you think so, doctor?

The biggest factor for heart disease is family history.

Oh good god.

Moderation people! Moderation.

Stop chowing it like it's a ****ing food group and it's not a problem.

Yep. A lot of people seem to get mad over our diets. And when we try to help them with theirs they get even more mad.

I always here this term "moderation" too. Sounds like a cop-out to me.

Also R8ers lost a bunch of weight and got healthy doing the same thing.

Maybe they don't want to accept facts from people they just don't like....or a Chargers fan.

Good. I am glad you are informed. Have you ever done straight keto for like a month and then checked your BP?

This is what my father's cardiologist said.

While explaining to him why his heart was in perfect condition even though he's 60 and has smoked 2 packs a day for 45 years.

LMAO

Cool! :thumb:

/grabs a s'mores candy

So is it bad to eat an entire party size bag of Reese's Pieces every day?

"Hey guys, I sat around on my fat ass shoving twinkies into my hole as fast as I could. Then I stopped doing that and started exercising and I lost a bunch of weight. I think it's because I cut off the sugar!!!"

:rolleyes:

Sugar isn't killing people. People are killing themselves by eating too much of it and sitting on the god damn couch all day.

No, not straight keto but 50 grams of carbs or less per day for a few months on end. I do notice a bit better readings when eating like this. I am not planning on coming off my meds though because of these slightly lower readings. Good news is my cholesterol is awesome!

It's okay as long as you're using moderation.

Yep, that's exactly it.

Quit being reeruned.

yo, how her titties be?

How is moderating a cop out?

All or nothing is for people who can't handle showing discipline. I understand it. Some people have to do things that way.

Don't make me kill you Buck.

cancer will get us all eventually, unless you die in a car wreck or by a bad guy or some other shit. Live life bro's

I don't think you should ever eat anything with added sugar.

What a crock of shit.. april fools..

Guess what, people have been dying for ever for hbp, fatness, diabetes even in countries that dont have high sugar intake for centuries.. This is BS science used to scare..

My dear friend Winston Churchill whom I mentioned earlier smoke and drank his way to age 90.

He either had a fantastic ticker built like a brick shit house or he didn't eat any sugar.

That's great, but the rest of us who don't have a gluten problem can eat sugar, yeah, IN MODERATION, if you don't know what that means, look it up.

For me it is not eating sweets every day. I quit regular soda a while back, I'd give up all soda if I could stand coffee or tea, but that isn't in my taste buds grand scheme.

I don't eat much sugar, but sometimes I treat myself. I'm not curing cancer. Just showing some discipline.

A bag of Reeses everyday isnt moderation.

Most if it comes down to genetics.

My dad ate Bacon and eggs, daily for decades.

He is almost 72 and has perfect blood pressure and normal cholesterol.

Yep. These fads are a religion to some people.

LOL, fad.

Buck the amount of video games, internet and tv is also killing you more quickly then if you were not.. You going to quit that also??

No.

Man all these scientists saying you should stop eating sugar and they've quit themselves because the results scared them. What a stupid fad.
