You don't want to cut calories by more than 20%. Thats 400 off of a 2000 cal diet. Thats 2800cal a week or 0.8lbs. But you'll only lose about .5lbs because of increases in body efficiency. Lose more and you'll trigger body deffenses.

Again, you make no distinction between high and low glycemic carbs..

kirk-people have been eating low fat for a long time huh!!?? Is that like the diet pops and light pizzas?

Ahh, good fats and bad fats. Big differance and I did mention that above. Good fats are very, very important. But you don't get much of that by barbequing some beef now do we or frying some chicken.


Anything can make you fat. Especially fat. Its actually scary how many cows are fed meat etc. Dead cows, even ones that have had mad cow etc. Road kill, what not. If you think that grass fattens cows up fast enough for the farmers to make good money alone? They aren't always fed just grains. the old days maybe but today? Too big a buisness.

You see many fat deer, elk, moose etc? Trust me, they eat greens etc no meat in their diet.

How many vegies in todays world get rickets etc???
