I have an identical twin brother. He is lean. I am fat. We measured how much we eat and the calorie measurement is identical. The dietary fat, protein, and carbs are all identical. We also collected our faeces and incinerated it and it also had an identical calorie measurement.

What is causing me to be obese while my brother is lean?
>>

What would your brother say is the reason? And in what order would he carry the grain, goose and fox to the doors with the lady and the tiger?

What the fuck is cico? I think carbs are fine if you want my opinion. Legumes, beans, lentils, all that are perfectly good.

>>77505819
Huh? What are you talking about. Even if he was fat before and they now match there calories, accoring to the CICO retards he should be losing weight because as an obese person he has a much higher basal metabolic rate. It's clearly a hormonal issue
>>
>>77505804
insulin can't store sugar you don't intake. is it easier and more precise to control the amount of sugar that enters your body (things that get converted to sugar, more accurately) or adjust the amount of insulin your body creates somehow? much of which, as you claim, is in response to the aforementioned sugars?

so if you're designing a control scheme for weight control, it's obviously best to control the sugar input. and luckily, the conversion of other macros to sugar is a chemical process with a maximum yield, so you can always reduce your input low enough to lose weight

if you want to convert "calories" to "maximum moles of sugar yield by human metabolic processes", you can do that, but it reveals you're just being pendantic to push the blame towards "hormones" (mostly out of your control, so "not your fault" that you can't lose weight, you're on keto, you're controlling hormones the best you can) instead of "calories" (admitting you just eat too much)
>>

Please don't take the drug that makes you effectively a diabetic and have the high blood sugar literally tear you apart.
>>
>>77502463
I don't believe you are effectively counting your calories if you are fat. If you've been counting your calories long enough to know this information, you have cared enough to not be fat. So clearly you just counted a day or two and assume that's what you do everyday even though you probably drink sugary drinks and have off the cuff snacks all the time but you don't count.
>>
>>77505912
Yes. Like 30% are. And this is still your dumbass scenario of medicating yourself into diabetes, not a realistic diet.
>>
>>77505918
*untreatened* type 1 diabetic
>>
>>77505907
Yes, you cannot store fat without insulin. See pic related: >>77505878

Also as mentioned type 1 diabetics prove it. Type 1 diabetics can underdose their insulin to eat as much as they want and not get fat. It's called "diabulimia"
>>
>>77505915
It doesn't matter how accurately you estimate your calorie intake. Calorie restriction doesn't lead to sustained weight loss. It just destroys metabolism and causes weight regain.
>>
>>77505922
Those literally die. You ever see a fat starvation victim?
>>
>>77505928
You have now moved the goalposts to "literally no insulin at all." Untreated Type 1 diabetics die even on a zero-carb diet. Keto does not save them. You haven't proven anything.
>>
>>77505798
How can it be the same if you are fat. Also do you work the same job and go everywhere together. Surely it cannot be exactly same level of activity. Did you track steps on the phone? Do you sit more? Do you spend more time on pc? Are you two twins who do everything together? There has to be an outlier here
>>
>>77505922
Wait, so the people who actually literally have direct control over their insulin get fat? 30% of them? And you propose people without that should rely on insulin control rather than intake control?
>>
>>77505932
starvation means no food at all. Someone can technically be in a caloric deficit and still be obese

>How can it be the same if you are fat.
Hormonal differences.
>>
>>77505942
Type 1 diabetics can reduce insulin dose to lose weight. It's called diabulimia.

The only factor in being fat or lean is insulin.

You think diabetics practice perfect "insulin control"? All they care is not to die 24/7. They eat the same shit 99% of americans eat and just dope themselves up with insulin afterwards or before

So, what are the ways to adjust insulin, insulin response, and insulin adaptivity?

I've heard walk after a big meal.
Another is go low carb, or keto.
For me it is paying attention to glycemic load.
Eating higher fiber carbs, and combine with meat, and veg.
>>
>>77505958
You have most of the big ones.

Others include:
- if you eat carbs with a meal eat them last (i.e. dessert)
- no snacking
- fasting
- no powdered or liquid carbs

The thing about fiber doesn't work if you blend it into a smoothie for example. It's food structure not just the presence of fiber.
>>
>>77505958
>>77505963
Also don't take night shift work because that leads to higher insulin. Which seems to suggest that sleep quality in general is important. Have a good sleep schedule and don't look at screens or expose yourself to blue light at night. Don't drink caffeine in the afternoon. Et cetera.
>>
>>77505956
So if they didn't just inject a bunch of insulin, if they wanted to control their weight, they'd have to adjust the amount of insulin the inject precisely based on the amount of food they eat? So they have to track their food intake and make sure it's appropriate anyway? Sounds like despite your protests >>77505852
was spot on, even with precise doseanle insulin control that everyone else doesn't have.
>>
>>77505951
This leads to diabetic ketoacidosis. Sounds like just not eating as much is still superior to insulin control.
>>77505948
>starvation means no food at all
It doesn not necessarily mean literal no food, just not enough. And until fat reserves have been burned through, the body will utilize those. So you can't die of too low energy intake while fat. But as has now been pointed out, you CAN die due to too low insulin while fat, even with sufficient energy intake. Again, proving which method is superior for weight control (and safer).
>>
>>77505991
The point is that CICO is false. Hormonal theory is correct.
>>
>>77505977
Diabetics try to mimick a healthy pancreas by injecting exogenous insulin.
So just like "healthy" people, if they eat too many carbs they also will get fat.
If they don't inject the insulin their elevated blood glucose fucks up all their cells and organs and they die, but they won't store fat and even lose fat. So what do you choose?
>>
>>77505995
But we just proved that regardless of hormones being the mechanism underneath, energy tracking and control is the best way to make use of it. That's CICO proved. You didn't even rebut anything, just chanted a mantra at me.
>>
>>77505997
You conflated carbs and glucose again. They can get fat on keto in that scenario too, just like someone with a healthy pancreas.

This is nonsensical cope. The laws of thermodynamics do not care about your metabolism. If you are eating more than the energy you are expending , you will get fat. If you are eating less, you will lose weight. The only variable is if your metabolism makes you feel tired or not. A non-issue in the equation. Your metabolism is not beating the laws of thermodynamics. You did not discover infinite energy.
>>
>>77506051
>muh thermodynamics
Thermodynamics say nothing about CAUSALITY (i.e. WHY a fat cell grows or shrinks). It's just a DESCRIPTION of a system you retarded faggot. If a fat cell grows then of course it takes in more energy (calories) than it expands. The question is WHY it happens, or in other words, WHAT triggers the fat cell to grow? Does the fat cell somehow KNOW how much calories you have consumed in a day and keeps track of incoming and outgoing calories? surely not.
Everything in our bodies is regulated through hormones that signal cells WHAT TO DO

He only understands the insulin pathway to fat storage (and can't even make logical conclusions based on that, as this thread demonstrates). He thinks you literally can't store fat on ketosis, as if your body can't just store excess dietary fat directly in fat cells as fatty acids even with low insulin. It's both scientifically and anecdotally demonstrated.
>>
>>77506057
You seem to think we don't understand the why, the how. But the fact is everyone else, both those who understand it and those that don't, cares about results, how to model and effect the desired change. "Insulin" is not a model, "CICO" is. As avoiding energy surplus is always necessary to avoid gaining or maintaining weight, even on ketosis (because yes, you can gain fat in ketosis), tracking and controlling energy balance will always be beneficical. And regardless of complaints about the exactitude of CI or CO, thermodynamics always ensures there is a known upper limit to how much fat can be gained for a given energy input. So if keto helps you control your hunger so you can just eat intuitively without having to think about the underlying physics, that's great for you, plenty of people here agree. But we also think you're annoying for constantly belligerently insisting that hormones are magic and not just one facet of a large system that everyone else has no trouble predicting with the established model, calling us retards when you're the one with some large gaps in your understanding.

Diabetics often try to be careful with what they eat, but having witnessed it myself, it often doesn't matter, their blood sugar still goes crazy so they just have to take the meds. Eating right though can reduce their blood sugar swings though.

You can also store energy as fat when udndereating. Depends and WHAT your body does with the ingested energy. Thermodynamics tells you nothing about whats actually, biochemically is happening in the body. Again, it's just a description of a system, no arrow of causality there.

This is a fake scenario but it’s well documented in the medical literature that what actually drives fat loss is TDEE and there’s a lot that can influence that including, yes, insulin.

the key lies in the detail. VLCK (very low carb keto) with macro ratio (C:F:P) of 10:63:28 and LF (low fat) with 60:25:15.
both groups have a 500kcal calorie deficit.

Whether fat or any other macro, or even gasoline as you posted previously, calories are simply a measure of the energy contained within a substance. It's not even right to say "contained within" because the energy fundamentally is the substance.

Actually that's exactly how engineering and applied science is done.
The gravitational weight of an object is represented by an equivalent force acting downwards at the centre of mass. External forces (any load at all really) are represented by vectors of equivalent magnitude and direction. The actual real-world phenomena are irrelevant once you have the correct loading.
Forces are forces.
Energy is energy.
Calories are calories.

Define "caloric surplus" in a way that makes it distinct from "weight gain".

Sorry... "what" into her fat cells??
>>
>>77509550
caloric surplus = weight gain
>>
>>77509563
energy
>>
>>77509567
How does this happen? What's the endocrinological mechanism?
>>
>>77509555
Easy. Calorietards (you) are really stupid.
>>
>>77509567
Then "caloric surplus" can't cause "weight gain" because both are the effect.

This is why CICO is false. You're just using different language to say the effect. You are not identifying cause.

The cause of "caloric surplus" aka "weight gain" is hormones.
>>
>>77509574
yes and that energy from food is called calories
>>77509583
semantics... A calorie surplus causes weight gain. Weight gain is the effect from being in a calorie surplus
>>
>>77509589
Or alternatively
>weight gain causes weight gain
>weight gain causes calorie surplus
>calorie surplus causes calorie surplus
It's all the same thing. The effect. None of this identifies cause.
>>
>>77507277
No they weren’t lol. It’s impossible to control metabolic rate.

>>77507275
The reason that happens is because it changes your TDEE. It will actually block energy expenditure from fat.
>>
>>77509602
Hormones control metabolic rate.
>>
>>77505958
The most straightforward and clinically proven way is just fasting. 36-48 isn’t hours is optimal. 12-36 hours is okay. If you’re not fasting at least 12 hours a day you’re basically not fasting at all and that’s why your insulin response is fucked up. Americans eat too late and too early and that’s one of the major reasons they’re so fat.
>>
How accurate are those calorie labels? What if I overeat by 20 kcal every day (basically one swallow of food)? I will be obese in 20 years.
I also can't be in a deficit all my life because then I will die. Something doesn't add up here. Do I need do oscillate from too much to too little? If that's so, how do animals do it?
>>
>>77509606
Sure but OP is suggesting metabolic rate is equivalent. If the scenario you’re describing is the case that can’t be true.
>>
>>77509609
yea most Americans are NOT eating too much they're just eating at the wrong times. Give it up big guy you're turning into the vegan shill
>>77509594
like here holy circular logic and reductive reasoning. You said a whole bunch of nothing then tried to change the subject
>>
>>77509615
That's not what the OP suggests at all.

The fat group had slower metabolism because their food was powdered. Powdered food raises insulin. Insulin lowers metabolism.
>>
>>77509610
Accurate enough to be reliable but it’s worth noting not every calorie you put down your gullet is a calorie that goes into the thermodynamic system though. The reason fiber helps people lose weight for example is not only because it blunts insulin response and controls appetite but because it basically shuttles additional food through the digestive system before it can become “calories in”.
>>
>>77509616
Define "calorie surplus" in a way that distinguishes it from "weight gain". If they are the same thing (they are) then one cannot cause the other. Because they are the same thing. A thing can't cause itself.
>>
>>77509616
They’re doing both.

You cannot deny that it takes 12 hours to deplete liver glycogen and burn much body fat at all. Until those 12 hours your fat burning is negligible. Almost all of the energy burn is coming from recent dietary sources.
>>
>>77509622
>calorie surplus
eating more than you burn off
>what distinguishes it from weight gain
In the case of single digit body fat individuals being in a small surplus is recommended to prevent muscle catabolism. Most Americans are sedentary and have excessive body fat with minimal muscle/lean mass
>>
>>77509630
If someone calculates their TDEE and eats more than their TDEE but doesn't gain weight were they in a calorie surplus?
>>
>>77509618
Retard. The study implies food composition influenced through some mechanism, possibly hormones, changes in energy expenditure but OP is asserting the caloric intake and expenditure are identical. Read it again. Presumably the mice had lower TDEE but OP doesn’t get that. He thinks hormones just made fat appear out of thin air.
>>
>>77509637
there muscles used the excess calories to prevent the breakdown of muscle tissues and once you get to 10.001% body fat, if you're genetically blessed that can be brought down to 8.001% but most men need to be at least 8% body fat for proper hormone function, you ironically enough will just start gaining fat if you stay in the surplus
>>
>>77509647
their* muscles. honestly just shut the fuck up ketolard I am not going to continue arguing in circle with you

The food composition and calorie intake are identical. Same calories. Same carbs. Same fat. Same protein.

Powdered food raises insulin more than solid food. Therefore the powdered food group became fat despite eating identical calories.
>>
>>77509647
So is someone who doesn't gain any weight in calories surplus or not? How do you know?
>>
>>77509666
Jfc dude. Are you illiterate or what?

If you still don’t get it, answer this question:

“We measured how much we eat and the calorie measurement is identical. The dietary fat, protein, and carbs are all identical. We also collected our faeces and incinerated it and it also had an identical calorie measurement.”
Does this imply the energy expenditure is identical? Yes or no?
>>
>>77509675
Nobody said the energy expenditure was identical. One group ended up obese because they were eating powdered food. The powdered food raises insulin more than the solid food. Insulin lowers metabolism.
>>
>>77509669
they gain muscle mass slowly too IE gain weight but if their body fat gets too high and they stay in a surplus too long they start gaining fat mass how is this is so hard to understand
>>
>>77509682
What if someone gains no weight. Neither muscle or adipose mass. Then are they in a "calorie surplus"? Why or why not?
>>
>>77509730
>what about this hypothetical that is virtually impossible
nope not gonna bite anymore enjoy your 80% fat diet that totally won't make you fat once you exceed your TDEE constantly
>>
>>77509622
>>77509637
>>77509669
>>77509730
All this hypothetical "what if" horseshit when actual room calorimeters exist. Come back when you've eaten 5000 kcal of fat and protein a day under those conditions for a few weeks, instead of doing dumbass LARPs like in the OP.
>>
>>77509740
For real, with stupid posts like >>77509622 (balance of oxygen consumption vs carbon dioxide production, there you go), it's clear despite seething against CICO because it doesn't say anything about the actual biochemistry of fat storage (of course it doesn't, it's not supposed, it's an model based on the observed behavior of all the biomechanics involved, yes including, but not limited to insulin), he doesn't understand the chemistry or any of its implications, even with just his single pet hormone.
>>
>>77509679
So you think what I quoted does not imply the expenditure is identical?
>>
>>77509765
Is faeces the only form of CO in "CICO"?
>>
>>77509577
That's not the molecule itself, retard.
If you just want to look at its package, step on the scale and you'll see weight. In your case, lots of it.

Are you all just whacking each other off with all this science bullshit? Just eat more or less. It’s really that simple. And calorie tracking is for consistency but you can also just eyeball food and eat consistent meals, just more or less of it as needed. It’s not that hard.

Calorietard.
>>
>>77509786
Oh you’re retarded.

If you have a system and you add a certain amount of calories to a system, and then a certain lesser amount is processed as waste, what happens to the rest? Does it vanish? Perhaps it’s burned?
>>
>>77510125
You seem confused about "CO" and "expenditure" and other basic concepts. Your body can do many things with the calories you intake and don't pass as faeces. Can you tell me if storing calories in fat cells counts as "expenditure"?

>>77510773
physics isn't what's being discussed here

>>77510874
CICO claims to be physics. Therefore rodents are sufficient for disproving CICO. If it's false in rodents it is false everywhere.
>>
>>77510878
>CICO claims to be physics
was it John Cico that said that?
>Therefore rodents are sufficient for disproving CICO.
no because as I mentioned humans are not rodents
>>

Everyone who believes CICO says it is just a law of physics.
