  • You’re right. Though each time I try to go in calorie deficit I can see that first few days feel awful and then suddenly my body is able to be content with 500 calorie deficit easily for months until I indulge again for day 2-3 days. Almost as if it accepts the fate until more food is available.

    Yeah. Our bodies are doing the right thing after millions of years of evolution. When you find something high fat high carb and salty, go crazy before the bear kills you. It just doesn’t know that there’s infinitely more food and almost no chance of a bear attacking you. We developed food much faster than our brains could adapt.

    At the same time, we are not just our bodies but also our gut biome, and they particularly enjoy less processed foods, high in fiber, highly fermentable, and still intact even after crossing stomach.
