What really annoys me is when someone like this guy here starts talking about dieting by eating less. THAT IS NOT THE FUCKING CASE. Diet is eating the correct foods at the correct time of the day.
For instance when this was said:
[color:"orange"] [ The key to losing fatigue is to challenge yourself physcially. Build up a good sweat, eat less.
The hard part about dieting is the eating less factor. There is all kinds of good foods out there, which is hard to resist. Fast foods like Mc Donalds are primarily responsible for their contribution to poor health here in the U.S. which is why 1 out of 5 persons here in the U.S. is considered overweight. ] [/color]
Do you actually believe this shit or did you make it up as you went?
First things first, I read through your post and some of what you said pertains, but most is just echoback of what the media keeps telling people works and in the end you try bullshit diets like Atkins because this is just jargon and nothing worth a shit.
I agree with the processed foods comment, processed foods are less nutritious than the real thing. They also often sneak in horrible little things like Sodium and Sugars.
[color:"orange"] Stay away from fast foods, and foods and drinks high in sugars, take energy supplements, stay active. [/color]
Much of this is right but what is this crap about energy supplements? If you fucking eat right you don't need to dope yourself up on specialized supplements. Almost invariably by taking too many supplements you will cause the body to stop producing said chemical and cause an imbalance that can be fairly challenging to overcome later on when the doctor finally kicks you off the supplementation. All newcomers to nutrition and dieting start screaming supplement the moment they start seeing a deficiency. Try eating a real food that takes care of the problem rather than running for the bottle on the shelf, you might even find such foods take care of (dare I say it) another regimen necessity.
[color:"orange"] If this doesn't work, than I suggest that you live the low carb life style. I personally guarentee instant weight loss within 1 week if you follow the Atkin's diet. [/color]
Here we go, another person screaming Atkins as soon as they figure out they haven't the intestinal fortitude to actually do it the right way. What makes me sick is people are going to listen to this bullshit and go out and try losing weight with the atkins diet plan. Atkins starves the body of some very critical nutritional components, that is why doctors tell you not to stay on it for a prolonged period. That fatigue you experience is from a little thing we call iron toxification (too much iron in the blood) and it is a direct result of iron rich red meat diets. Save the people you are talking to the despair and tell them what they need to hear. Get a fucking pair of balls, make a life decision and stick to the fucking thing. I have no respect for a person that whines about his fat ass then turns around and sucks down a package of ho hos. Those are the persons I tell to fuck off and just go suck down a couple containers of pure crisco in hopes it clogs and artery and kills their stupid ass.
Look you make a wonderful point about diet and exercise but your emphasis in your post hasn't been enough on what and when to eat and the carbohydrate to protein splits.
I personally don't know anyone who takes anabolics to lose weight, it just won't happen. I know a significant amount of information about anabolics due to the past time I have chosen. Though I personally don't want or need to take anabolics I know many people who do. The simple fact now remains in the world of specialized anabolics, they certainly don't have the same adverse affects as they did ten or even five years ago. DON'T TAKE THEM BECAUSE YOU ARE BETTER THAN THAT. It is just a matter of fucking pride.
If your mother gave you all the information you just posted here, much of it was absolutely INCORRECT. Though she is most likely a book learner and not an experienced, tried and tribulated expert. I got my knowledge from two sources, pure science and years of tinkering with not only my diet but with others diets. Actually, I did learn a ton from an old russian olympic trainer. Those guys know their shit cold. They took blood from athletes 5 times a day for 30 years looking for what caused different changes in athletic performance and gain.
The bottom line is this, don't fucking go on a gimmick diet. Do this shit right so you don't need to alter lifestyle once you reach your desired shape/form. Eat right = 80% and exercise properly = 20% and you will first gain muscle and using that muscle with the proper diet you will burn fat quickly. Atkins is a god damn gimmick, it works, but under prolonged conditions over time most people gain back the weight they lost on it because they are too lazy to change their lifestyle to accomodate the change in diet.
