Focusing only on cutting calories can lower your basal metabolic rate (BMR), leading to increased fat storage and persistent hunger. A healthy metabolism depends on selecting the right types of calories, not just reducing calorie intake. This is why the CICO model is completely flawed and heavily promoted by big pharmaceutical companies. It encourages a cycle where people with high insulin remain hungry, tired, and metabolically unhealthy, consuming more food but still feeling sluggish and lacking energy.

eating less or don't eat is not feasible in the long run as body still need nutrients

Why eat less don't work? I managed to lose a few kilos when I eat less rice. From 65 to about 61 kg.

I have an NS friend he lost over 20kg just by controlling his diet. Never even exercise sia.

Obviously. Why not do the logical thing? Eat lesser energy than you use. Oh right, in before health gurus write walls of text on this groundbreaking concept.

if i tell you your body doesnt need as much as you think?
or evem feel?

yes our body lies to us, most of the time.
to retain as much fats and gain as much reserves as possible.

eve if you lose them, your body will be desperate to gain them back

use our brain, look at the scale and your body measurement

Exactly. We live in an age of abundance.

Long time ago there was this fad of eating a medicine that prevents your intestines from absorbing fat. Hence, you Lao Sai out oily stool (fat / oil pass through your system without being absorbed)

but this fad no more. Seldom heard people on this medicine

Oh i remember this.

People are still using them, it's called Orlistat. It will make you pass out oily stool when you eat it with fatty food.

Sometimes, it's not just about being overweight. Take my case, for example. I weighed 108kg, but I drank a lot of water and sweated a lot too. I didn’t overeat and I’m not really into sweets. The problem was I didn’t exercise because I was too lazy (I admit it). I couldn’t figure out why I wasn’t losing weight, even though I didn’t eat supper. So, I went to the doctor, and turns out I had water retention. The doctor gave me water pills, and within a month, I dropped to 100kg. It really goes to show, everyone’s body is different.

If you are eating only one or two meals per day and your weight remains unchanged, it is advisable to promptly assess your insulin levels. Weight loss medications may merely mask the symptom of weight gain without addressing the insulin level.

Metabolic dysfunction progresses slowly over many years, and once blood glucose levels rise, much of the damage may already be in place, making reversal difficult. Taking early, deliberate action is essential to preserving key health indicators, such as maintaining HDL above 80 mg/dL and triglycerides below 70 mg/dL. These goals are well within reach by following a clean diet.

I tried Avalon aloe Vera detox pills... Decade + ago

Made me live miserably
Ate homecook not too bad as long as don't add much sauce... But once eat out or something that the pills don't agree as "healthy" I had so many toilet runs...

Even on dates... Terrible experience
And even if lost weight it was quite short term

The Slim 10 saga in 2002 involved a number of people who were diagnosed with adverse health effects after consuming weight-loss pills that contained prohibited ingredients. Among them were two women who suffered liver failure. They were logistics manager Selvarani Raja, who died from the condition, and actress Andrea De Cruz, who survived after receiving a liver transplant. Both the importer and the distributor of the pills, Health Biz and TV Media, were fined by the health authorities and paid damages after two civil suits were brought against them by the victims and their families.

Chemical found in some weight-loss drugs listed as poison, sale restricted in Singapore - Nov 11, 2023
2,4-Dinitrophenol (DNP) and its salts that are intended for human consumption were added to the Poisons Act on Nov 1, according to The Straits Times’ checks.
The legislation has been put in place to control the import and supply of health-enhancing products, such as health supplements and traditional medicine, that contain substances specified in the Poisons List.
“(DNP) is an industrial chemical, which is not suitable for human consumption. It is prohibited in all health products in Singapore,” said the Health Sciences Authority (HSA) in a reply to ST.
It added that it has detected DNP being sold as weight-loss products on local e-commerce platforms, and has worked closely with the platforms’ administrators to promptly remove these online listings to minimise harm to the public.
