How I maintain my weight
"Did anyone get any idea what this joker just waffled?"
Of course, as did you. Which is why you bothered to reply in the first place. The two pound diet is trash science in its truth claims. You may at leasure provide scientific proposed information to the contrary of course, at which point real scientific discussion can begin. |

How I maintain my weight
I have read your posting three times and as far as I can understand,
you didn't say anything. One thing was clear, though: you don't know how to spell "gimmick." "The lack of knowledge is expected in the eternally condemned demons, who are without the help of the LORD, Who is the Source of all knowledge." Lacking any valid scientific support for the trash science of the two pound diet claims you are reduced to this? May God bless you. |

Or should I take an increase in carbs that include higher calories. Sorry guys, this old head can't get around this at all. Tom |

"Please be patient with me and this question. On insulin 50 years now
and recently have lost a lot of weight due to an illness not connected to diabetes. There is one thing that I just don't understand after all these years and for that I apologise. What actually puts weight on more quickly. Is it an increase in carbs or and increase in calories. Or should I take an increase in carbs that include higher calories. Sorry guys, this old head can't get around this at all." First, there is nothing about which to be sorry. Diabetics is somewhat a special case but in general we can more weight by eating more food then we need to maintain our current weight at a given activity level. We measure the energy content of a food by calories. All the food that is in excess of needs is stored as fat regardless of if it is protein, carbs or fat. Fat is the bodies storage method. In times past when food was not so easily to hand and could be uncertain on a regular basis we used the stored energy in fat. In these days we lose fat by mimicking less food times by eating less so the stored energy is used. When one is ill it is often usual to eat less so there would be a loss of stored fat for that reason. Some illnesses can also contribute to weight loss by other methods. Protein is used for many purposes other then as an energy source, in building and maintaining some tissues such as muscle for example. If during the time we eat less the same amount of protein is not maintained then the body also uses such sources as muscles to have protein for other important tissue reasons. So total weight loss can be the combination of both of these stored cells. A diabetic has to control carbs in the blood as you well know. Insulin is the substance which causes carbs as glucose to enter cells and when there is more carbs then we need for basic energy needs the excess is stored as fat as already discussed. In short if your doctor wants you to gain weight just eat more quality foods of your choice keeping in mind that an increase in carbs means an increase in insulin in your case. If your current weight is within normal ranges then consider not adding weight, which also means less insulin to serve less body tissue and from not eating some carbs to stay where you are. I hope the short outline helps you understand more about weight loss and gain. Please feel free to ask any question. |

When caloric intake exceeds caloric burn-off, you will have the tendency to gain weight. Carbs, proteins and fats, the three "things with calories that make up food molecularly all have calories in their foodstuffs but in differing ratios fat = 9cal/gram, protein and carbs = 4 cals/gram (roughly for all) http://www.nutristrategy.com/nutrition/calories.htm Or should I take an increase in carbs that include higher calories. Sorry guys, this old head can't get around this at all. Tom If you want to add weight most quickly, you would eat from the fat groups of food in the list above since they are the most calorically dense. |
