Starvation should not significantly compromise your ability to catch your next meal otherwise this would lead to a positive reinforcement loop whereby small calorie deficits quickly lead to large calorie deficits and accelerate you towards 0% bodyfat and death.

It is easy to fall into this mindset, because for many, going on calorie reduction plans turns us into lazy slugs who don't want to get out of bed. The feeling is, "if I can just get my butt out the door for a jog...." Most people do really believe in CICO thermodynamics and really don't know how much a self-adjusting open system we have.Exceptionally Brashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13177479330600606059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7221767529759848946.post-44983706064002292112012-09-14T11:45:28.135-05:002012-09-14T11:45:28.135-05:00Nobody yet knows what drives us to eat too much.

That is out of Sharma scope of practice. Calories are just the accounting and sloppy accounting at that. ELMM is just like saying to make money on the stock market, buy at the lows and sell at the highs.
