High carb, low fat, high activity (a lot of LISS + resistance training) is probably going to be the “healthiest” fat loss approach without ending highly stress-hormone adapted (something Georgie talks about in his latest “Strong Sistas” podcast ep)
-
Stress hormones and lipolysis will increase during weight loss but we don’t have to go over board with it.
High carb low fat was actually shown to retain more muscle during weight loss compared to high fat low carb

For fat to be burned off it has to be used so in a way it’s unavoidable right? Or am I missing something.
Hi,
My point of view:
First to remind: It’s easier to lose weight than not to regain it. Stabilization will be needed with staples.- 1st challenge: Avoid to stress if you want to lose fat from adipocytes. Otherwise, adrenalin and cortisol afterwards will prevent you from burning fat.
No lipolysis allowed if stress.
2 hours are required to recover a normal state of carburation.
Help needed with breath exercise (sophrology).
Some magnesium bisglycinate could help to make it easier to recover (300 mg x2 or 3) (to take after a “crisis”; useless if you want to anticipate a difficult situation.-
Enough potassium is required to help glycolysis.
RP said insulin is only 8 % of the solution.
- Never drink black coffee without sugar nor smoking before eating carbs, at sunrise.
Since high insulin lowers blood sugar as it disposes of amino acids, eating a large amount of protein without carbohydrate can cause a sharp decrease in blood sugar.

Some specific exercises could help to strengthen the abdominal muscles. - Don’t try to lose more than 1.5 kg – 2 kg (4 pounds) per week.
- Never go under 80 % of the required macronutrients, otherwise the brain will set the balance back. Defensive process.
- I would take 1.2 gr meat / kg weight when trying to lose weight. Not necessary to take 2 gr. Never go under 0.8 gr.
- 25 gr protein is good. 35 gr maxi per meal (if no enzymes are taken). Optimizing process.
Note: there are +/ 20-24 gr protein in meat. - We weigh oneself once a week, not every day.
A green soup could help if necessary to saturate.
I would not go under 20 % lipids. Not a good idea.
Hope it could help.
Note: I’ve been coaching people for more than 10 years.

You will get very confusing and contrasting answers on how to go about weight loss.
One will say avoid lipolysis and another, I, will say allow it. RPF has long advocated avoiding lipolysis via using niacinamide, but this is why that advice doesn't work. If you Avoid lipolysis how will you get rid of stored body fat? Which is why it is better to let lipolysis happen by minimizing insulin production. as insulin inhibits lipolysis. Taking niacinamide for the purpose of inhibiting lipolysis is wrong-headed. Haidut advocates this, but haidut has never lost weight. And RPF guys never wonder why that is. I believe use of niscinamide to lose weight is contradictory to the idea of losing weight.
I give you my reasons and the logic behind it. It doesn't matter how long someone has been coaching. Results matter. How many years masons build means nothing if what they build keeps leaving cracks behind in the plaster. Yet such masons like to brag about their experience.
Which is why I would not want to proceed in advising you, as most people who ask will make the wrong decision, as voices around create a lot of noise and make finding the right approach difficult.

Well seen.
I confirm that when I took high dose B3 (niacinamide), I was unable to lose weight. It prevents me from losing fat, thus lypolysis.
As Yerrag said, obviously, to lose weight, you need to lose fat from adipocytes. Between 2 meals, there must be a deficit or better a higher carburation. In this way, when walking 20’ after a night meal, it’s fine to help avoiding high level of blood carbs.
The body needs time to be accustomed (brain) to burn fat for fuel.Two sides of a problem with B3:
En commençant avec 50 mg / jour de B3, l‘organisme s’habitue.
La niacine provoque un «rebond lipolyse ». Cette vitamine essaie d'abord d'empêcher la lipolyse et puis après une à deux heures, il y a un contre-effet qui amène la libération massive de triglycérides des adipocytes et en même temps la sortie de substances chimiques toxiques (dans le processus de détoxication).
Ce processus a été décrit par L.A. Carlsen de Suède. -
Glad you noticed weight gain when megadosing B3. Thst makes the two of us. @mostlylurking have you noticed as well?

Well, I don't think I've ever high dosed B3. I take 100mgs of niacinamide, 4Xday which equals to 400mgs/day. That's not high dosing is it?
I suspect that my own weight gain is from learning how to make fabulous apple pie combined with sitting on my fat behind in front of this computer too much.
I'd like to add that I did lose 35 pounds in around 4 months simply by changing how I take my niacinamide. I used to take 200mgs twice a day which equaled 400mgs/day. Then I changed to taking 100mgs of it 4 times a day and the weight came off. I guess something just started working better from taking it more frequently. This weight loss happened prior to perfecting my pastry....

@mostlylurking
Well, you didn't go overboard with the B3. I did.
I was taking 2 x500 mg for 1- 2 months. But I was taking 2k mg of B1 30mg of niacin, 120mg of B2, and 60mg of B6 for a month.
I noticed my belly grow, and I put on around 10 lbs, mostly with astrocytes. I thought it was the B2.
Then my cat bit me by the ankle bone, and since then I have been mostly bedridden because I couldn't walk with the pain that accompanied the slow healing of a wound that because of the thin dermal layer near bones (often associated with bed sores) that are slow to heal. I'm on week 6 and likely it would be 7 before all the wound heals. In you ask,
I'm not diabetic.But throughout a month of this ordeal, I was eating my usual regular carb meals 3x a day (though it would also be called lo carb by less knowledgeable folks) but I would lose weight instead of gain despite the lack of movement that constitutes external metabolism.
I lost back all the weight and girth I had gained. And it was because I had backed off my 1000mg daily supplementation of niacinamide.
Ever since the RPF days, I had wondered about the sanity of using niacinamide to avoid lipolysis in order to lose weight or to improve sugar metabolism and to increase metabolism, but I never voiced it out.
No one ever did as well. Now, I think a case can start to be built up against too much B3 supplementation if the goal is to lose weight as one improves his sugar metabolism.

Can I blame my belly on the B2? I take around 400mgs/day same as my niacinamide.

Interesting concept.... You might be onto something....

You just might be right!

It likely will work. I used a 1% mixture of Clorox in an isotonic salt solution aka Dakin's solution, made by Dr. Dakin about 100 yrs. ago. The surgeon doctor I consulted recommended it.

It's not the same thing. Watch the two videos I posted earlier. The second one is how to make it.
-
@mostlylurking I know it's not the same thing.
I've made chlorine dioxide countless times already. But Dakin's works, and it's a done deal. Next time, chlorine dioxide it shall be.

Okey dokey. the second video shows how to make a consistent concentrated product that you dilute just before use. I've used it for several years. I keep the concentrated mix in the refrigerator for months and work out of it.
