Coffee landed the other side of the room, too! Wow!And then everyone stood up and clapped!
I've definitely seen a show where someone only ate fast food and lost weight. Supersize Me shows Morgan Spurlock gaining nearly 2 stone after a month on fast food only but I'm fairly certain he just ate everything he could, and always took the 'supersized' option when offered (though it's been years since I've seen it). That's the whole premise of Subway's 2000s marketing - that you could eat a Subway (fast food) every day and lose weight. Very interesting.my now hazy memories of metabolic chemistry at uni basically boil down to glucose = energy.
doesn’t matter what you eat, your basic fuel is glucose. It’s all broken down to that one molecule.
All this tit about insulin and blood sugar spikes and oh no! Carbs! Is crap because your Mac Donald’s is broken down to glucose and used as energy in the same way your home made hand cooked offerings are.
obviously the “health” angle lies in the inclusion of proteins and fats, vitamins/minerals, salt etc for other functions and repair. But your energy source is glucose.
your brain in particular burns through glucose, maybe that’s why all the low carbers seem hard of thinking.
from a weight point of view each individual needs to tweak their energy in/out if they don’t want to gain. How they do it again is irrelevant. Whether it’s one Big Mac a day or 1500 cals hand knitted by fairies.
maybe I should start a one Big Mac a day weight loss diet. I could write a book and mcds would sponsor me.
again from my hazy recollections I always remember burning ketones as fuel was bad, usually found in diabetics in a ketoacidotic crisis. So when the theory behind no carb and keto is to deprive yourself of glucose to the extent you start burning ketones as fuel, that does not compute.
I peel tatties to Janis Joplin because I feel she would’ve understood the hardship of such an act.I wash dishes furiously to songs like that.
I enjoyed the film but even at the time, I remember thinking (and everyone saying) that of course eating nothing but three square McD's a day for a month, upsizing and finishing it all even when you don't want it is going to duck you up. No moral judgement, it's just food, but it wasn't a revelation that doing that isn't good for you.I've definitely seen a show where someone only ate fast food and lost weight.

What a stupid question.And then everyone stood up and clapped!
Isn't that the premise of Slim Fast and all the other weight loss shakes?In my eating disorder days at 6th form I’d go along to mcd’s with the rest of them and have a chocolate milkshake. That’s it.
400 cals. One milkshake a day.
Guess what? Despite all the sugar and carbs I lost a ton of weight very quickly.
there’s definitely something in this Mac Donald’s weight loss diet idea![]()
Yeah I think he was an alcoholic as well, I'm sure an all supersized McDonalds diet isn't going to do you much good but the liver issues were the alcohol.I enjoyed the film but even at the time, I remember thinking (and everyone saying) that of course eating nothing but three square McD's a day for a month, upsizing and finishing it all even when you don't want it is going to duck you up. No moral judgement, it's just food, but it wasn't a revelation that doing that isn't good for you.
And didn't it later emerge that he still had his alcohol addiction at the time and he admitted the times he threw up might have been down to being hungover? I might be wrong, but I think there was also a scene where a doctor said his liver looked terrible, and as the alcohol was never mentioned, it was very much implied that the food was responsible but it seems unlikely. That was very wrong in a documentary.
I remember being irritated too when he trotted out his mum and girlfriend to lament and wail ("oh sweetie, I love you, I don't want you to get hurt!"). He's not being sent to war! He's choosing to do this and we all know it isn't healthy! If he gets too ill he should stop, he's made his point!
Then he admitted sexual misconduct...
Like absolute duck they're a size 6/8 at that weight and height. 67kg is 148lbs or close enough, I'm 5ft 6 and when I was 148lbs for most of my 20s I was a size 10 on top and a size 12 on bottom (pear shaped).Had a laugh at this one in the what do you weigh at 5''10" (or whatever the height was)
I'm substantially shorter (5ft3) and I'm a size 6/8 and weight 65-67kg
Bollocks you weigh that at that height and wear a size 6-8 unless we're talking US 6-8 which is UK 10-12 and even then probably only if you're pretty muscular. Fortunately someone did call it out. Also laughing that the person asked for weight in KG and I know they said stone is fine but it's not difficult to do the conversion.
I hate ice breakers , most stupid thing ever, so in my working days I just lied outrageously. My favourite was when I said I'm descended from inhabitants of Tristan da Cunha. Some rapid eye blinking from the trainer and a swift move to the next victim lol.I’d duck up anyone younger than me who was interviewing by revealing the classic Agadoo.
If the “what song represents you” really did happen I can see most of the cunts earnestly proclaiming Imagine thinking they’re bleeping saints.
