Raising BMR and quality calories before restricting makes a lot of sense for those who trying to lose weight.
I know someone like this and this young lady is obese! Starving clearly hasn't worked for her.
I think it's prudent here to bring up Mercola's recent substacks on the fat to carb ratio(Randal Cycle) and the importance of eliminating seed oils. To raise BMR you need to get the mitochondria producing ATP. you need to eat enough simple carbs to provide the glucose your body needs, eliminate complex carbs and keep the fat intake below 30% so you are producing a lot of ATP.
Focus on whole organic foods. Get engaged in activities whether they're growing your own food, cleaning house and yards, a hobby or sport. Exercising just to exercise is boring. Most people aren't going to do it, but if their mind is engaged with an objective, it will drive them to physical activity.
Long-term studies in animal models have also shown that diets based on high-GI starches promote weight gain, visceral adiposity, and higher concentrations of lipogenic enzymes than isoenergetic, macronutrient- and micronutrient-controlled diets with a Low GI starch. In a study of healthy pregnant women, a high-GI diet was associated with higher term weight than a nutrient-balanced, low-GI diet. In a study of diet and complications of type 1 diabetes, overall dietary GI was an independent predictor of waist circumference in men. Functional foods have been studied as a means to improve weight control in those who lead a healthy lifestyle. Functional foods have been evaluated for their effectiveness as therapies for obesity in two ways: first are foods that reduce appetite and increase pleasure, and another are foods that increase thermogenesis. Nutraceutical therapies are currently being widely investigated as potential treatments for obesity and weight loss. Low-glycemic carbohydrates, chromium, and green tea extract are among the substances that have been shown to promote weight loss.
A high dietary GI is associated with increased odds of NAFLD in subjects with T2DM. Studies also indicate that high glycemic index and glycemic load were associated with an increased risk of mortality from CVD and stroke.
