Cut the Foods that Make you Fat

Once and for all, calories don’t count! I call this the, ‘Black Forest Cake Syndrome.’ Here is how it works. If you were to eat 1,200 calories per day in meat, fish, vegetables and your best friend ate 1,200 calories in Black Forest Cake everyday and nothing else, which person would get fat? The Black Forest Cake Girl of course because a calorie is not just a calorie. In fact calories don’t make you fat, forget about them and lets get on to what matters when you are trying to loose body fat.

All food nutrients (protein, carbohydrate, fat, vitamins, minerals, sugar, alcohol) will illicit a response in your body to dictate how you use each ‘calorie’ of Black Forest Cake or protein, fat, and fiber. The response to 1,200 calories of sugary cake is totally different to a balanced meal even though they have the same caloric value. The hormonal response is what will make you fat not the calories!

Sugar, fruit sugar (fructose), milk sugar (lactose), high fructose corn syrup when eaten will immediately cause the pancreas to release insulin. Insulin shuttles the sugars out of your blood stream into cells where they are used for energy in the metabolic processes or made into storage forms of carbohydrates (glycogen), or storage forms of fat (triglycerides).
