Simply buy less of it and/or replace your normal consumption of it with something else. | ||

Though, I have a nice supply of steak, chicken breast and lean turkey in the fridge, still have to get at least 1 bowl of rice a day. carbs are energy. if you do not use it then you will get fat... FAT is inactivity incarnate. | ||

I wasn't fat before, i wasn't even chubby, i was like 175lb (80kg) when i started, now i've lost between 10 and 12 kg of fat (20-24lb). carbohydrates are used by our bodies as our primary energy source, and you can stuff your face with them as much as you like but if you eat more than you burn in a day, it's turned to fat. you should by no means cut out red meat, this is a great protein source and your body needs it. in addition to that, meat is filling and will reduce the amount of carbohydrates you actually eat. if you stop eating carbohydrates or reduce the amount, your water retention decreases and you'll lose weight but it will be water. rice, potatoes, brown bread, wheat and such are low GI carbs, which means your body digests them slowly and that means the energy release is gradual, which means in term that your body has a supply of energy for a few hours after eating but also that you have a much greater chance of burning the energy than if you ate the same amount of carbohydrates in a high GI form, like sugar which is digested very rapidly and spikes your energy then converts to fat. you don't have to cut down on carbs if you're getting fat, you just need to cut down on overall calories and balance out your diet more. I can tell you this will kill you quicker than carbs. I am by no means an expert, but after a chapter in my Human Bio H. class, Let me tell you, this fucking destroys kidneys with toxic keytones, and a lot of weight loss you may have is body water. I have to go to school now, if this thread's still around I'll explain myself a little bit... | ||

edit: also, if this were true that it kills you, none of us would be alive today as a lot our ancestors lived in ketosis because there was no source of carbohydrates around. http://www.brianpeskin.com/reports/Ketosis.pdf this seems like a good scientific read edit edit: this website offers some great insight, but is really wrong about the ketosis thing. it is quite easy to get into actually and ketosis strips do show this.. not sure where the facts for that came from. | ||

Why? What adverse health effects do you feel? (Besides the recent SC2 disease that has been making players quit SC1) | ||

I don't eat any pork either unless I go to a world famous barbeque place in my hometown, which I realize is self serving, but I'm okay with that because not eating pork anywhere else is enough to make me feel better about myself/ my beliefs. I'm trying right now to intake minimal caffeine, which includes chocolate. I'll only eat chocolate if my girlfriend and I order a dessert with it. I''ve also been soda free for 2 weeks. | ||

(Besides the recent SC2 disease that has been making players quit SC1) I feel no adverse health effects aside from me not having a 6 pack or something (lol). Again, it's not really for health reasons, but more just to see if I can actually do it ! It's like having a really hot girl naked in front of me and training my penis not to have sex with her. I'm single. Why wouldn't I want to? The point is just some kind of mental training really, no other particular reason. | ||

Eating a good amount of chicken and fish is perfectly fine though.It's OK to cut down on fats and excessive carbs (sweets), but what's wrong with meat? I always thought that meat with vegetables is the best diet possible. Also, you don't really "need" carbs in your body, but replacing them with complex carbs (brown rice instead of white rice, whole wheat bread instead of white bread, cutting out sugar, etc.) would probably show more benefits than just cutting them out almost completely. Edit: and Xeris, that's a really bad analogy if you want to get us to understand why you're doing this | ||
