Well what can I say, I must have a perfect body/metabolism. I eat when I'm hungry, I eat well. I exercise well, have a varied diet and don't smoke and don't eat any crap or processed foods. All that I've achieved and by the very admission of members here I have achieved incredible results, I've done this purely down to eating well, and being careful but working hard. Sure I appreciate that your body may need supplementing as it utilises extra nutrients, but I've achieved what I've wanted to achieve through nature.
People are lazier these days. Look over the past millennium, there were many fit strong human beings they never supplemented their diets. Why should I have to do so now?
I don't do the whole bulk/cut thing - I guess if I was trying to drop weight I'd maybe have a different idea, however I was over 17st once (when playing rugby) and just ate less, worked out harder, did more exercise and dropped down to 13st over a couple of years. I'm in perfect health - well I'm happy enough, and it's been down entirely to me. Sure I spend close to £60 a week on food for myself alone, but I buy good quality foods, vary my diet and eat well. Nature has all it has for me. I don't need supplements. Some people who need help who use them to take it to the next step will help, and I KNOW that some supplements DO work and work well. Someone like Chong, his physique is awesome, but my goals are different to his. I can't be bothered with pulsing supps, and taking them here and there, and keeping an eye on them. I'd rather just live my life.
The gym is a big part of my life, but as much as it's important it moves around me, not me around it.
I know the effects of a lot of these drugs and supplements, and I know they'd work if I wanted to take them. But you don't need them.
If there was a safe and effective supplement to losing weight then the NHS would use it drunkenmaster. Now you could get into a debate on whether the NHS should be providing such things, but it certainly does provide treatments for obesity. At the end of the day obesity is such a major problem and such health implications that is is worth it financially for the NHS to cough up and treat.
The idea of taking levothyroxine or anything you feel will boost your thyroid levels is just dangerous. The feedback pathways for your thyroid are pretty good at regulating themselves, and either will largely ignore your supplementation, or if direct supplementing with thyroxine will actively reduce your endogenous production of thyroxine to stop you becoming hyperthyroid as this is dangerous for your body. Unless you actually have a medical problem that requires this then you should NOT be on levothyroxine, and it is NEVER prescribed to aid in weight loss, if you truly know of it being prescribed in this way then it's a matter for the GMC.
however I'd much rather let my body tell me what it needs and I'm quite introspective to what my body needs. I can tell if my blood sugar is low, I know what vegetables it needs, it's funny I get cravings for things at times like carrots and broccoli etc... lol. I admit I am perhaps quite fortunate with my genetics, however I think in a way we were talking a little at cross purposes, as my issue was people RELYING on suppse and using it as an quick fix rather than REALLY understanding them.
Your either completely jacked because you know all this stuff or really skinny because you spend too much time reading and not enough time squatting![]()
forgot to mention, I get that too, and I only get that while I'm eating healthily. Randomly I'll crave some food that seems odd to eat on its own, like spinach, eggs, some fat, whatever. When I'm eating a more normal fairly high carb diet I really don't get that, I just feel bad, tired, hungry and in need of more carbs all the time.
I would also suggest a bunch of anti oxidants for many reasons, oil food is cooked in is often really chock full of free radicals as so many use oils that are mssively oxidised in cooking. Omega 3, in nuts, or tablets, or tablespoon of oil a couple times a day really is so good for you not least because, again compared to 100 years ago omega 3 in foods has gone massively down with omega 6 going massively up and the worse the ratio gets the less omega 3 your body can absorb and transform into dha/epa(two types of omega 3's). Its probably the single supplement everyone in any health should take every day tbh. Also remember that so many toxins that we ingest in tiny quantities that aren't really harmful, can be fat soluble and over years build up inside fat in the body. OFten times for no reason when you're losing weight you'll suddenly feel like death warmed up and it can simply be because of something releases as something stored in fat is released into the body, toxins, even bacteria i think can stay dormant in fat for a long time. Again why anti oxidants are just fantastic for you.
I seldom use oil to cook with - as much as I love fried food, I tend to grillI do eat a lot of oily fishes and enjoy nuts etc... However as you say in our foods these days owing to the way of the world a lot more toxins are ingested - there's not much we can do about it really...
I love going on a free radical hunt
I know you can get antioxidant tablets... but where's the harm in eating some strawberries or apples or other foods high in antioxidants? Surely if we follow nature's way it's better no?
Even it it does work, what's the point? Appetite suppressants wouldn't accomplish anything you couldn't do yourself, and using them would be classifying yourself as weak-minded..There is another pill doing the rounds at the moment which is an appetite suppressant. .. A friend of mine lost 12 pounds the first week he was on them and typically most people seem to be losing 8 pounds or more a week.

At the end of the day people believe what they want to believe and do exactly what they want to do.
So many people talk the talk, especially in forums like this.... yet very few seem to ever walk the walk? I just listen to the walkers![]()
