Maybe Dr Drew should've gone more into detail about what "move more, eat less" meant in his terms. He's a great doctor, he should've just elaborated more.

I love this quote from your post “It’s very simple, move more, eat less. Exercise and cut down on your calorie intake. It’s not that hard.”. Ya. one must move more and eat less.

I do count my carbs, with a limited amount per meal as opposed to a certain amount per day, as per my nutritionist's instructions. I think I'll have to see her again, she said to come back to her if I got stuck. Thank you though! I watched the hour long video you linked to and realized that I already knew the answer.

I agree with weight loss and being healthy. Weight loss will control many things such as hypertension, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels. Many people need help though in losing weight and there are alot of good natural weight loss supplements available. <a href="http://www.slim-in-2010.info" rel="nofollow">Nice Reviews of Weight Loss Supplements</a> Nice post!

Physical fitness has many important benefits, to be sure, but as Kevin and I have discussed, the name of the body fat game is the carb/insulin factor. We've done quite a few shows discussing the various aspects of this, so a good place to start would be to subscribe to the show and listen to those episodes, maybe <a href="http://healthymindfitbody.com/2009/12/11/13-weight-loss-plateaus-metabolism-and-calorie-myths/" rel="nofollow">beginning with 13</a>. In a nutshell, typically any plateau that you hit is not the result of lack of exercise, but rather of eating too many carbohydrate-based foods (and too little fat for energy in place of the carbs you cut). And don't forget adequate protein. So, instead of counting calories, consider lowering the percentage of carbs in your meals and replacing that lost energy with fats, such as nuts and nut butters. Feel free to comment more either here or after the show notes of episode 13, for instance, in order to ensure that you're on the right track. Plateaus can be overcome!

I lost 42 pounds in the first four months, pretty consistently, but now at a plateau for at least a month. Grrrrrr. So what is the answer then to this myth? Help!
