Gary remains the best of the best. His books and presentations changed my life. My doctors are nice people but I should be at least some evidence that what they preach is wrong.
Keep the best til the end? I've never seen that insulin Vs fat turnover graph and personal variation in the inflection point potentially explains so mucg. Thank you Gary
great lecture
great lecture.
Excellent presentation! Thank you so much! 💯 agree
If CICO hypothesis was true, we would all be either losing or gaining weight all the time
Hot water would make us gain weight.
Anatomy vs metabolism: 5 kcal/day of dead meat but on a living body it's 200 kcal/day to maintain a 30 pound overweight

Out of date for the part were it is almost correct, and for the larger part, wrong and incomplete, and sometimes even blind and weird conclusions. Finally supporting the idea that there is no personal responsibility.
Let us assume a person is not active, eating wrong and eating too much, and gaining mass with a rate of 3 kilogram per year. After 5 y, which is not a long time span, it sums up too 15 kilos. From here, the person inside that body will register the weight gain rather easily. A branching point has been reached: either the person assigns relevance or NOT. If she does, then another branching occurs: is it worth the expected inconvenience by feeling hungry, or NOT? by changing the life style?
There are enough examples of people that demonstrate that nobody dies from being hungry when being 15 kilos overweight. "hormonal dysregulation" as you call it, is not a primary cause. Refined starches are NEITHER !
I have a constant body weight since 40y, and I do eat past, Austrian pastries, white rice. And yes, sometimes i do fasting and I am hungry then, I do even resistance training after a 20h fast.
The issue is n the head of the obese person, nowhere else. Because the head assigns the relevance of sth, not the body.
He’s giving a history of how obesity was studied in the past, and yes, those studies are out of date. Calories in calories out isn’t the cause of weight gain or weight loss. It’s not in the head. It’s a persons hormones that drive weight gain or weight loss, and the types of food we eat, not the caloric content. Not to mention sugar and carb addiction, which is very real. Just as difficult to overcome as alcoholism or any other addiction.
