[QUOTE="Dillinger, post: 209972, member: 13582"] But what is the explanation for what you are saying? Why are people who eat a lot of calories getting fat and those on reduced portions who have cut out 'the junk' losing weight? Either it is the calories in/ calories out idea or it is something else. It seems undeniable to me that it is something else. And that something else is carbohydrate and insulin related. If you reduce portion sizes you are also reducing carbohydrate consumption; and that is why you are losing weight. If you stop eating 'junk' the main element of that will be starchy carbs; and hence the weight loss. Insulin is the key; that is why Taubes talks about sugar and fructose so much. [/QUOTE]
