Another thing that I wanted to add to this thread is that the bodies we were given, or born with are so amazing! Everyone of us are unique in our own way, and have a different metabolism that functions at a different rate. Those of us who can't seem to stay on a diet, let alone lose weight on a "diet." End up yo-yo dieting. Jumping from one diet to the next. This is indeed a dilemma!

We all know that dieting doesn't work! Time and time again we fall-off-the-wagon on fad diets that just do not work, nor do they last. This is one of the reasons we as americans can't seem to stay slim. That is why there is an obesity epidemic in our country. The sad thing is that our children, who are the next generation are becoming obese faster then most adults who gained the weight in their adult years.

I believe our metobolisms are very difference from those with a normal weight. They seem to be able to eat anything and not gain an ounce. But, their metabolisms are different then ours. We, on the other hand need to follow a low carb, or ketogenic diet that gives us the results we so desire.

Just wanted to point that out there for discussion if anyone is interested, but still want to keep the "topic" of what is being fat adapted vs being in ketosis as the general focus on this thread.

Thanks!
