Bkmk
The principle here is that we normally should not eat until actually needed for energy, and then eat only what is enough for that purpose, and no more until needful again. And in which eating high fat foods should be minimal amounts. Of course, if you are going to go a long time without food and esp. is expending a lot of energy, then eating more than what is normally needed is still consistent with this principal. The idea is that of expending caloric intake before replenishing it.
Pray to God to have the right weight, committing yourself to serve the Lord Jesus while trusting Him to save sinner you on His account (see tag), and pray to Him to use you to bring you to people, to make a positive difference in peoples lives for time and for eternity, the latter by bringing them to Christ, by the grace of God.
There really isn’t anything wrong with high fat foods. They are not necessarily as bad for you as the government claims. What is doing people in is the carbs.
Scripture indeed does have much to say about fat and not all of it is bad. Psalm 63 comes to mind.
Eating on a regular schedule is fine. If you wait until your reserves are deleted to eat again, you will be doing your body no favors. You won't have a reserve of any kind for an emergency should something come up where you are forced to miss some meals.
You can still apply the principle of eating only for strength without waiting until the last minute to do so.
That of course is debatable nowadays.
The low-carb diet is actually a high-fat diet in that the body burns fat instead of sugar from carbs.
The biggest problem in America is the addiction to sugar that comes from a high carbohydrate diet (from bread, pasta, starches, etc.)
In earlier times, a high carb diet might have been fine because humans were more physically active and burn those carbs off. But a sedentary lifestyle and high-carb diet is a killer.
BTW, sugar is very addictive and unsatisfying at the same time. The more sugar you eat, the more you want. Of course, carbs are converted into sugar in the blood stream.
Also, when they eat. I lost over 30 lbs by changing when I eat. I moved my usual night snacks to the afternoon and stopped eating or drinking things with calories after eating dinner. Little by little it melted away.

White flour carbs, versus whole grains, while calories in, calories out still remains true.
Scripture indeed does have much to say about fat and not all of it is bad. Psalm 63 comes to mind.Yes, Ps. 63, "My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips." (Psalms 63:5) And Scripture indeed does have much to say about carbs, and not all of it is bad. Psalms 104:15 comes to mind. "And wine that maketh glad the heart of man, and oil to make his face to shine, and bread which strengtheneth man’s heart." (cf. 1 Samuel 21:6; Josh. 9:12)
yup... post #25 i caught it

You will be doing your body a favor on the long term provided you have access to a variety of foods, having a reserve of such for quick replenishment when actually needed. For man is designed to regularly deplete reserves before replenishment, as beginning with the fall of man and until relatively recently, most people had to plant, harvest and or raise and kill what he would eat, versus having a refer full of food and eating for pleasure more than actual need.
The difference is that today we usually have a variety of foods=better nutrition accessible for replenishment, but with the downside usually meaning that, with the reduction of physical exercise, most of the West is overweight (72% in the US) and even obese (42%) which is far worse than not having a reserve of any kind for an emergency, providing access to a variety of foods is available. Obviously, if doing something like hiking a long trail, then loading up is normally advisable.
However, not everyone's metabolism and health is the same, and may God help you in your situation.
“Eat less, exercise more”
Impossible to out exercise a poor diet.
” And in which eating high fat foods should be minimal amounts.”
Bad advice. All there is to eat is protein, carbs or fat. We almost all eat roughly equivalent amounts of protein when eating freely. So that leaves the ability to reduce fat or reduce carbs.
Having done yo-yo diets for 45 years following US government advice to go “Low Fat”, going “Low Carb” has literally been life changing! Since doing that 5-6 years ago, I’ve lost 45 pounds and kept it off. With higher fat, I don’t get hungry and don’t get cravings AND my body is finally burning off fat instead of hording it!
Using low fat diets, I’ve dieted down to 120 pounds on my 5’8” male body and STILL had a thick layer of belly fat! My body would reach a point in dieting where it would burn protein (muscle) instead of touching the fat reserves.
Since going low carb, the fat reserves on my body initially dropped about 70% and, over the last 5 years, have gradually dropped more. I expect my belly fat to be almost gone within a year.
I don’t think people who have never been very fat understand that it really is NOT just “calorie in / calorie out”. I’ve dieted down to starvation levels without my body converting fat to energy so I know it happens. And I know keto and fasting have changed that. Not prayer. The problem was I followed BAD ADVICE for 45 years, failing repeatedly - because the advice DID NOT WORK.
I needed good advice. Gary Taubes’s book “Good Calories, Bad Calories” started the change. And it worked. Not 100% in 6 months, but a big change in 6 months followed by gradual improvement for the last 5 years.
This is critical to understand: If your body’s hormones have gotten badly out of whack, cutting calories will NOT get rid of the fat without also getting rid of a lot of muscle. A male who is 5’8 and 120 pounds is very underweight - yet I did it without losing nearly as much belly fat as I have now at 157 pounds!
The solution requires fixing your body’s hormones so your body starts to respond to food the way a healthy body does.
BTW, a high fat/low carb near-carnivore diet has also improved my ability to put on and keep muscle. Over the last 3 years, my weight has remained steady while my fat has been slowly going away. It looks like I’ll be genuinely slim - not “ripped”, which is unhealthy, but slim - and weigh around 155-160 at the end. But with muscle replacing the fat.
I’ve gradually moved from “keto” to “near carnivore” and eating one meal and a snack for each day. I’d prefer OMAD - One Meal A Day - but I just can eat enough during that one meal!
Still, slender with muscle at 160 will be vastly better than scrawny yet FAT at 120!
