If you want to control your fat you must control your insulin

One of the things I learned from Ben Bikman- Why is weight control not just about calories in calories out? Without insulin you cannot store fat. Period!!!! Think about that, insulin is the gatekeeper to the entrance and exit of fat in your cells. This is why a symptom of type 1 diabetes is losing weight no matter, no matter!!! how many calories they eat. My takeaway is -Clearly if you want to control your fat you must control your insulin.

Comparing The Obesity Code by Jason Fung to The Calorie Myth by Jonathon Bailor

Comparison of The Obesity Code and The Calorie Myth -Someone asked me if I had heard of Jonathon Bailor and the Sane Solution because it seems to be inline with some of the stuff I've been posting. And the answer is Yes, I am a little familiar with him. I have Jonathan's book, The Calorie Myth (like I confessed - I have a lot of diet books) and I read it a couple of years ago and I liked it!

Even when I weighed what I would like to weigh now, I struggled. I wished like many people, that I could just eat what I want and weigh what I want, like some people that I observed seemed to do. Last fall several members of my family and I began an attempt to lose some weight with the Loseit app. Things seemed to work fairly well for a month or so and then  the holidays hit and you can probably imagine what that did to the diet. Again I wondered, like maybe some of you, how do some people seem free to eat the celebratory foods without weight issues but others don't? At the beginning of the year, I thought I would summon up the energy to renew my pledge to Loseit. But I couldn't do it. The idea of being hungry for the many, many weeks I would need to lose all the weight I need to was just too depressing. Also although trackin...
