@7.62 thats the convential wisdom but it's changing. High carb diets, particularly processed carbs, make people eat frequently due to the blood sugar crashes caused by high insulin which is caused by high carb intake. Once you get off the suger and processed carbs you are less hungry, have sustained energy and you don't have the crashes.

This about it this way. When our anchestors didn't have anything to eat they would have to catch the next thing. It would make no evolutionary sense for poeple to stop functioning if they haven't eaten for 45min. Humans would have died out long ago if that was true. Another way of looking at the whole thing is that almost all of us have a good reserve of body fat (> 18% for adult males) and most of us have too much (> 24%). If you have body fat then you can't really be hungry just because you haven't eaten for a few hours. Not eating for a while also has quite a few benifits including raising human growth hormone.

It's all changing. High fat diets are the new black. Exercing while in the fasted state is the thing to do.

Regarding heart disease and cholosteral which is the thing that started all this low fat high sugar madness. I eat nothing but green veg and fat (including a lot of saturated animal fat). In 2016 my cholosteral was 4.7. A month ago it was 3.6. Good cholosteral is up, bad is down.

So basically do the opposite of what the doctor tells you. If the convential wisdom was right most of the population would be skinny. Just walking in the mall tells you that the majority of people are horribly overweight which logically means the convential wisdom is wrong.
