CR just stands for Calorie Restriction. It doesn't stand for any *particular* diet. So its not like i'm throwing out "EVERYONE EAT LOW FAT!"  |
No, you're not saying that, and yes, people who eat low carb tend to eat less calories. But they do NOT count calories. Calories never enter into it. You'd know that if you did low carb. CR, which is what you're pushing, is not a carb-counting diet. It is a calorie counting diet. Low carb people tend to eat less calories than they would otherwise because that's a natural consequence of being on a LC diet plan. CR is CALORIE restriction. Not CARBOHYDRATE restriction. CR IS NOT A PART OF A LOW CARB PLAN - at least not as the term LC is used in the typical lexicon of dieting. YOU ARE WRONG. STOP SAYING THAT.
And while it may be true that there may be CR people who do LC, your argument is painfully weak. How many people on here, other than you, do CR? Keep in mind that I'm NOT asking "how many people on here eat less calories than they otherwise would." What, then, are you doing on here OTHER than pushing an agenda?? You don't read low carb books, you don't struggle with your weight (at least not in the same sense as everyone else on the board), you don't offer support, you don't offer insights that are relevant to the kinds of issues and problems faced by people on the board - you just come in and post articles (that never have anything to do with low carb) and write posts that push CR - which, again, IS NOT LC.
Are LC and CR both diets? Yes. But you're like a born-again christian posting on a muslim message board about Jesus, then saying "but we're both judeochristian religions, and you believe in Jesus, too!" to rationalize your pushing issues that aren't pertinent or helpful to the dominant group. You might think your doing something positive, but you're not helpful and your actions are occasionally destructive to the community at large. Honestly, you should stop.
Once again, for emphasis:

CR IS NOT A PART OF A LOW CARB PLAN. This is wrong. The INTENTION of restricting calories is at the crux of a CALORIE restriction diet. IT IS NOT taken into consideration for a LC diet. And the fact is that your posts to the site reek of CR salesmanship rather than objective contribution, precisely because you DON'T contribute in any other way. Again, honestly, please just stop.
