A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Yeah you can't run off a bad diet, you do need to make sure you are getting enough protein aligned with your goals, and some fats, but outside of that, you just need to eat less than you burn.
Running might help increase the deficit a bit, or give you some extra food, but you're probably going to struggle to cover thousands of additional calories.
And now they're pointing at that guy who was taking in absurd amounts of calories from meat per day, because they don't realize he had a nutritional deficiency that meant most of it wasn't getting processed.
You can do a similar thing on rice, as it happens, because rice doesn't contain enough B1 and you develop beriberi.
Right. I walk like 5km a day and I lost 30kg. Secret eat less than you burn.
