Also what about those injections that so many people are trying? Ozempine
Another friend of mine lost 30 pounds since the summer. |
This week's family first talks about the shots

No there’s no such thing. There’s something you’re doing wrong. My dr said to me, in the Holocaust not one person stayed heavy. If you don’t take in more calories than necessary you lose weight.
Are you drinking at least 8 oz of water every day? Eating healthy fats? What are you eating in a day? If you eat too little your body stores up fat because it goes into starvation mode.
I tried every diet and would lose some and then gain again, until I did high protein, low carb. I did no fruit (that turns to sugar just like candy does). Veggies, lots of healthy fats (avocados, olive oil, coconut oil), any proteins I want… lost over 70 lbs.— best diet ever, no hunger.

What a horrible thing for your doctor to say.
Ok, I think op meant "other than starving yourself to death" which yes, may work.

Your doctor doesn't sound brilliant.
Does he know how many people during the holocaust managed not just to "not stay heavy", but also to die? And I'm not talking about those sent to the gas chambers or shot and buried in mass graves. I'm talking about people who died in concentrations camps due to disease and starvation.
If you don't take in more calories than necessary you lose weight- unless your body thinks you're starving (for real, not the feeling you have when you have to have that chocolate chip cookie fresh from the oven because it smells so good). In that case it readjusts your metabolism to function on the least amount of calories possible. That's the beauty of how Hashem created our bodies. It's the reason not everybody died in the camps even though their caloric intake was severely restricted. It's also one interesting aspect of our weight loss journeys.

The bolded is just horrible, blaming every overweight person. I hate this site sometimes.
I drink way more than 8oz of water a day but will never go low carb as a vegetarian. Personally I love being curvy anyway. As many people have pointed out, being skinny doesn’t always equate to being healthier.
