Brian,

You just cited a single uncontrolled single-subject case study to disprove years of scientific study.

The idea that it is ‘only insulin’ is pure conjecture, and is not a tested, nor proven statement.

Calories in/calories out theory isnt the whole picture i dont think. I recently stumbled across a self experiment where an individual eat in excess of 5000 calories/day of animal fat and protien going as close to zero carb as possible, and still lost weight. Its here…

Now that puts holes all over the calorie theory. Clearly its all about insulin. Keep your carbs around 50-100grams/day and you’ll lose weight alot more effortlessly.

I think doug wins a reward for encapturing ESE the best. I wish I could capture the sheer brilliant elegance and effectiveness as well as his did.

So let’s just say dougX2, lol.

p.s.

I can’t express how glad I am that John committed to doing more content! The world needs more of Johnny B. His way of getting to the CORE of things is just brilliant.

Great video. I was chuckling…

It reminded me of a post that Brad wrote for my friend Rusty Moore’s Fitness Black Book blog where he talked about all these different diet strategies and how they all worked…because they got people to do something different and (usually) all involved eating less.

The ESE approach is so simple and practical…I lost 2 inches off my waist in about 4 weeks (from a 34 to a 32), and I was in pretty fair shape to begin with.

Dear Brad,

I’ve tried your ESE twice per week and have found it to be successful once I got past the guilty programming of you’ve got to eat 6x per day and what about losing muscle mass? After several weeks I began to get stomach pains about an hour after eating which I never had previous to ESE. I think maybe I have reduced the need for Hydrochloric acid in my stomach so when I went back to eating I wasn’t making enough? I really enjoy your scientific analysis of eating,and thought I’d just ask you if you’ve had any other comments about similar circumstances?

Thanks, Bruce

Great review Jon. Couldn’t agree more about the same message being touted by these books about having a caloric deficit. Is there anything easier then ESE? I’ve found it to be the easiest program to follow out there while others try to complicate things and make losing weight to be harder than it really is.

@Brad Pilon I was attempting to just do once a week, but have not even accomplished that. The first attempt was successful, about two months ago. I think a part of me is not 100% into it because I keep reading about how we should have an early hearty breakfast...so when I begin to waver I just choose to believe the other programs that tell us how important it is to keep feeding our muscles. I do believe deep down that you are right so I just need to DO IT! Thanks, Sara, I do remember that the day this worked for me I had lots of activities lined up. Congrats on your progress, that's fantastic.
