Mike Chandler's huge body transformation from May to November

There's nothing wrong with McDonald's. Your body has no idea where your food comes from or what it is. It just breaks it down. Calories, protein, carbs, and fats are all the same to it. Perfectly fine to eat McDonald's, presuming you keep it in moderation like any other food. Excess calories above what you're burning is what causes weight, not "crap food" like McDonald's.

People blame McDonald's for their weight because of that moronic documentary Super Size Me from the early 2000s. The dude didn't gain 24lbs in a month because he ate only McDonald's, but because he ate 5,000 calories a day. He could've ate McDonald's for 30 days straight and lost weight if he were in a calorie deficit, or stayed the exact same if he kept to his maintenance. He was in a massive surplus by eating 5000 calories so unsurprisingly gained massive amounts of weight. It was pure propaganda.

Next thing you know someone's going to say Diet Coke's bad for you. 0 calories is 0 calories.

Diet coke is bad. It has aspartame. Just because it has 0 calories doesn't mean you can drink it all day, there's other chemicals and artificial crap in there.
 
This is pretty much what p90x commercials do to make people think these crazy "transformations" are possible for everyone, easily.

Take someone that's in shape, have em take a couple months off, add a little weight and get bloated, then put em thru a cut phase. Looks easy when it's someone that already had that physique and just bloated up a bit.
 
Not that drastic for 6 months. If he wasn't sticking his gut out and was flexing like the 2nd pic, he wouldn't be in the same shape but still pretty good shape

Not this crap again. Aspartame isn’t bad for you except in massively high doses that nobody is consuming.

Aspartame is one of the most feared and maligned food additives in history.

But the European Food Safety Authority has just published research that concludes that consuming the artificial sweetener, which has been used extensively for more than three decades, is perfectly safe for the vast majority of people. The EFSA said that the acceptable daily limit for aspartame is 40 milligrams per kilogram of body weight. Considering that a can of Diet Coke contains about 180 mg of aspartame, and the average adult weighs about 70 kilograms (or 154 pounds), a quick mathematical calculation will reveal that you can drink about 16 cans per day without worry.

Moreover, the EFSA said that aspartame becomes toxic only once you consume 4,000 mg/kg of body weight – or about 1,600 cans of Diet Coke a day.

Everything is bad for you in too high of doses. Including water and oxygen. Better stop taking those too.
 
The first pick looks like it could be Hendo

Diet coke is bad because of the fake sugar they put in it.
Just because a cigarette is zero calories doesn't mean it's good for you.

With that said you're right. There was a gut on youtube who for a month ate nothing but oeros but lost weight. He was trying to prove its not about what got eat but rather how much you eat of something.

Yes, and your body may respond to fake sure in similar ways as it does to real sugar. Some studies have shown this, though it varies somewhat by individuals. In addition, has there ever been a study where they gave huge amounts of aspartame to humans? I doubt it, as it would likely be considered dangerous and unethical. So I'm pretty sure we're basing "only HUGE amounts harm you, breh" arguments on rat studies. And most of us aren't rats...even on Sherdog.

That post was bad enough already, and I almost thought it was satire when he mentioned the diet coke. Most artificial sweeteners are absolute crap--they literally work because your body has NO idea what to do with them. Does that sound healthy for a second? Aspartame is the worst offender probably, is neurotoxic, and banned in the EU iirc. The "best" ones just tend to mess up your stomach.

So no. Take the damn sugar. Don't poison your body. Other people have already dismantled 1970 thinking calorie is a calorie with the fast food
 
When you dont eat like a soyboy you will have a super fast metabolism with easy lean muscle gains

It's silly to compare the 2 most vital aspects of human life to something that isn't necessary like aspartame. Why ingest something that has no benefits when you can be eating a balanced diet?

Definitely. Why ingest something that isn't a basic necessity? Better to eat a balanced diet and minimize any artificial crap. Calories is only one part of the equation, the nutritional breakdown also matters.

On that note, let's end this thread with and summarize Chandler's transformation with some bad poetry:
Natty Daddy is now a Baddy not a Fatty like Paddy

You will improve nearly any health metric by just not being fat. That's solved by calorie consumption, ensuring you're in a deficit to lose fat, and maintenance consumption to stay at your lean/normal level. Not what you're consuming. Your body knows what to do with calories and macros, it doesn't care where they come from. Just how much. Too little it consumes your own fat stores, just enough it burns what it has, and too much it stores it for later.

Don't miss the forest for the trees. Worry about the smaller stuff after you've solved the macro stuff. We're not pro body builders, we're bro body builders.

Yup. Pretty much what the poster I was agreeing with said. Yup.
