Do you need to be in a calorie deficit to lose weight OR are hormone levels more important?

when I restrict my calories to much I tend to hold more water and end up looking fatter despite the scale sometimes being lower. starving yourself is non sense, aldosterone cortisol etc increases. Optimising hormones is the way to go.

I have been a fan of DR for over a decade and when I went vegan 10 years back, I went from being a fairy lean, but still puffy highly active fitness instructor to string bean (w/ veins on my forearms) lean. I am in Natasha's group for like minded support because so many around me think I am "a weird freak of nature". I try to teach them the truth, but so few are open to it. Yet, at age 50 I am effortlessly lean w/ amazing energy and balanced hormones. Thank God I never took birth control or any other pharma drugs or restricted my calories. Thanks again for another great video of TRUTH!

It's taken me years to get my head around why you're right. I finally got it. It's just amazing as it's actually so simple. You are right, and this should be taught in every school and university around the world. Unbelievable that it took some crazy maverick cyclist vegan to figure this out. But then of course they can never admit the truth because it would mean saying no to meat dairy and eggs.

Another awesome DR vid. Never blows your mind with the information, just blows your mind that you never saw how simple it was before. ✅👍✌️

The only advice you ever need, just wish that more people would listen.

I must admit and give credit where credit is do! It’s amazing that you have stuck to your vegan belief and keep spreading the vegan message! My wife and I are new vegans. And our family and friends are so against it! They are all sick on meds and over weight! But they have all the free wrong advice we can’t change anybody to try to be vegan. I realized your right people what to hear good things about there bad habits they are lazy don’t like change and they can disagree with us but they will still be wrong. So it’s amazing how much you have been able to change people

love the Dogma and Pragma reference at the end

I work 13 hr shifts. I smash the fruits and potatoes. All my colleagues think I’m a machine. Thanks DR.

[sophiekarner]

Absolutely spot on DR esp weighing scales. I recently walked 900km across Spain, first thing people ask is 'how much weight did you lose?' Although I went down three belt notches I lost no weight. Added muscle... I weighed exactly the same as before.

Diet and cycling tips, durians wheelhouse!

Very true, most people will never understand this though. They will grow old and die, never knowing the truth.

[kagejujutsuss]

Doing high carb vegan for 2years and I feel amazing

I have discovered so many new things and have the energy to just do anything in life without feeling like I could fail

60s-90s top cycling team’s diets,
....how EPO (late 80s)/ red eggs shifted diet/ What Ferrari taught
important natural vs answers too.

[lifeafterlon]

Solid, simple truth you can act upon. I hope this vid helps a lot of people.

[Zestysarah]

Finally quit birth control a few months ago. Warning to other ladies: don’t do it. It still affects my body in less than flattering ways I.e. masculine hair growth on my face. Disgusting. Cramming in the sugar and hoping to heal this hormonal issue. Really hoping it works.

[SeraSmile]

Pragmatic. Truth. Can we also address the hilarity that DR is randomly enjoying his time in the lake, but then enlightened with a video topic. Stops everything and starts spitting out facts... whilst still floating around in the lake!! Why is this so funny to me? I love it. Keep the life-changing TRUTH coming!! #CTFU

[Gypseygirls]

I found you years ago.
Love following you..💕💕💕💗💗💗💕💖🍄

Hey DR I notice on Phil G. last video from the track part 2 he didn't have his road frame as a sponsor anymore on his list of bike and equipment sponsors! Great job!

[isaacyoung]

FANTASTIC VIDEO! what I'm tired of is people food shaming.. Healthy hormone levels are earned via eating a healthy diet that is correct for YOU INDIVIDUALLY.. Stop food shaming people!
