Re: oh no…there’s a wedding coming up
I thought it’d be obvious by now since I mentioned it numerous times already. I didn’t say you don’t need energy. You just seem to think that the only source of energy is food. You don’t need to take any calories in a day (but that is nearly impossible to do). Losing dress size means fat-loss. Here, I’ll break it down one last time then I’m out of this thread:
- food eaten (calories ingested) >> increase in blood/sugar concentration above normal >> excess sugar in blood converted to glycogen >> excess glycogen stored as fat
- less food eaten (reduced caloric intake) >> decrease in blood/sugar concentration below normal >> glycogen hydrolyzed in to blood/sugar >> fat metabolized in to glycogen [fat loss]
- minimal calories ingested >> blood/sugar concentration lowest >> more glycogen hydrolyzed >> more fat metabolized [more fat loss]
Its a simple concept, and I’m not going to explain it further. I don’t like repeating the same thing over & over again.
Good luck with your workouts!
