    In regards to the “calorie” article, it shows that losing weight is not always as simple as some people make it out to be.

    Atkins is proved correct!

  3. Devon Herrick says:

    A calorie is not a calorie.

    According to the article, people on the low-carb diet burned about 300 calories more than those on a low-fat diet. Prior research has found that high-protein diets (i.e. more protein, less carbs) resulted in more lean muscle mass gain.

  5. Alice says:

    Neither solely diet nor exercise make for effective, sustainable weight loss. A combination of a healthy diet and regular exercise is the only foolproof method.

    There’s a lot of variation among people who are dieting/trying to burn more calories. Body-type, genes, age, all sorts of factors.

    Excellent article on health libertarianism.
