“Those who do not view armed self defense as a basic human right, ignore the mass graves of those who died on their knees at the hands of tyrants.”
Don't know. I told the doctor essentially the same thing. I was given a paper with a whole bunch of stuff to test for. It's the paper you give the person drawing blood. Afterwards I came back to the doctor and was told theres nothing wrong.

May be isocaloric, but macros would be vastly different, hence not equivalent. To prove the point that cals are still the #1 driver of weight loss, a science teacher ate only McDonald's for 6 months and lose 56lbs:

Others followed and got the same result.
Macros matter, total cals matter more when it comes to weight loss. That's a different issue to issues such as preservation of FFM, health, etc. Weight loss is cal flux, macros, and exercise, in that order.
I always favor a higher % as P when fat loss is the goal, but it's not "magical" per se, and most effects from say keto diets (and example of classic MMM thinking) comes from the reduced cals and higher P intakes, vs "magical" impact in metabolism and such.

I've got multiple doctors telling me similar. And the takeaway is that it's virtually impossible to exercise your way to lower weight in your late 50s. So a dietary component has to be present and is probably the most critical part. (But exercise is important for other reasons)
As long as you can eat in five minutes more calories than you have burned in 1-1.5 hours of Hard Exercise this will be true.
While managing diet is critical for weight loss, the other thing that people discount is how carbs impact blood sugar, and thus enable coronary artery disease.
High blood sugar has a trifecta of negative effects on your arteries. (Etching of and clinging to the artery walls, then the conversion to fats/triglycerides)
As my cardiologists explained, the triglycerides that cause artery issues for the most part were converted from blood sugar, and were not originally present as fat/triglycerides in the food when you ate it. So the whole low-fat heart healthy diet thing is inaccurate and unhealthy. And is 15 to 20 years behind the research and at least 10 years behind recognize practice by doctors who stay current.
I did the whole Keto thing while working out 5 days on 1 day off for 12 weeks. Went from 11 to 7% body fat according to an app and those stupid calipers. Not sure how accurate it was. Weight stayed the same more or less but I lost fat for sure. The only place it didn't seem to affect is around my belly button. I'm finding it hardest to loose fat there.
I will say the Keto deff worked for me but if everyone in your house isn't doing it with you, it must suck.
If all else fails, there Anavar (Oxandrolone) lol
I am part of that power which eternally wills evil, and eternally works good.
I have been doing strict keto (75%fat, 20%protein, 5%carb) since mid June, and I am down 47 lbs. For whatever reason, this diet is very easy for me, and i don't feel like i am "on a diet". Beer and pb&j are the only things I miss.
That being said, I suspect that one of the reasons for my results, is that the large amounts of fat are keeping me full and I am in a caloric deficit without any effort. I feel like I pped the easy button. Taking in between 1700-1900 calories per day.

If it's working for you and it's easy to follow to boot, drive on I say. Remember however, losing the weight is not the difficult part, keeping it off is the difficult part. I have met a few people in my decades of being in the biz who stayed on such a diet long term and functioned well on them, the other 99% usually stopped the keto/VLCD diet, went back to their "normal" way of eating, and gained the weight back, some times more then they began. Hence, my position is, any diet followed that forces one to go back to their "normal" way of eating, is a loser. One has to follow a way of eating they can follow essentially forever, it ends badly the vast majority of the time.
