And do you expect to get an answer to that here? 555

Why not?

Yes I know, there are many here who post only to increase their post counts with absolutely nothing useful, but also I have found others who post very knowledgeable, useful and helpful posts.

In a public forum, after awhile one knows exactly how to separate the wheat from the chaff... that's life on this planet, I believe.

So presumably you eat a high fat diet? What's your BMI?

Expand  

It's possible to eat normal levels of fat, provided one has trained their metabolism to utilize it rather than sugar. That's the basis of low-carb diets.

BMI can be somewhat misleading. Most midfielders in Australian Rules football fail BMI criteria miserably, because they are all muscle. The preferred method of measurement is skin fold testing.

BMI doesn't work for me.  Put in my numbers for when out of boot camp, best shape ever, and not much different than now, a couple kgs, and has me borderline overweight, then, and overweight now.   That's silly.

I always buy Flora. But my favourite cereal is a ridiculous price now:

I did buy several packs from Shopee at 129 Bt months ago.

Ah, the good old days...

hard to comment on you, but definitely a majority of people don't understand what "healthy BMI range" looks like. Scotland for example average dress size is 16 and they think it's normal, a friends wife commented my girlfriend was anorexic who was size 10 and healthy for sure, to her size 16 is normal

Not too bad, falls into the overweight range

Family genetics mean I will always battle to get into normal range. OTOH, I'll never have to worry about osteoporosis.

I'd like to be around to see how you compare at age 79, but it's unlikely.

From what I've seen, people who exercise seem to lose weight as they get older, eat less etc, lose muscle. I've cracked what I need to do to lose a kg if required, now BMI 22.9, could go lower if I wanted. If I make it to 79 I suspect I'll be similar, and I should add I'm big on carbs and sugar, not sugar phobic

Quite right, that's why I have daily exercise routines to maintain or build muscle mass. It's a balancing act.

I haven't reduced my food intake, just become more selective in what I eat.

Dr. Ekberg is the best nutritionist on YouTube.... Listen/watch this video and you will learn very much.

Expand  

It's interesting to note every single product he mentions in the video is a packaged or processed food. Not a single fresh food gets a mention.

It's going to be real butter or nothing depending of what I put on additionally, so no butter and bacon for an example or if I eat caviar, cheese tomato
