4hw.org: we all know that ice cream is a high calorie food, which is rich in a lot of calories. People who like ice cream will basically get fat. However, recently, a man has proved that eating ice cream can also reduce weight, and he only eats ice cream within 100, which is also a blockhouse.
According to a report on June 6, Anthony Howard crow, 32, a YouTube anchor in the United States, just finished his 100 day ice cream weight loss program and lost 32 pounds.
During these 100 days, Anthony only eats ice cream as food, and drinks a small amount of protein drinks and wine from time to time. Instead of promoting it as a way to lose weight, he wanted to prove that the most important thing for weight loss is to control calorie intake, not food type and ingredients.
This view has been emphasized by Anthony since he just created his own channel 'ABS ice cream' on YouTube in 2011. He believes that the essence of weight loss is to control the daily calorie intake and consumption. No matter eating fried chicken or vegetables, even fast-food junk food is OK. Dieters only need to make sure that the calorie consumption is greater than the intake, and then they can lose weight steadily.
His first such quick weight loss experiment lasted for 30 days, during which his 50 calories were all from ice cream. Even though he didn't last longer because of his work needs, he still lost 2 pounds a week during the 30 days, and also molded his abdominal muscles by exercising in the gym. After that, he tried to eat only junk food for 30 days, still maintaining the weight loss rate of 2 pounds per week, and making the abdominal muscles more obvious.
From January this year, Anthony began to eat only ice cream, drink protein drinks and some wine, and recently completed the challenge of 100 days. The reason to add alcohol to this extremely extreme diet is to emphasize Anthony's view of weight loss. He heard that many people feel that they can't lose weight as long as they drink alcohol, so his own experience proved that even drinking alcohol can lose weight at the same time.
At the end of the experiment, Anthony's blood lipid decreased, healthy HDL cholesterol increased, LDL cholesterol decreased, and his triglycerides also decreased significantly. What's more, although his diet is full of sugar, his blood sugar level has slightly decreased.
Spencer nadolski, an expert on weight loss and obesity, said that although these weight loss results may seem counterintuitive, they are very normal. "When you lose weight, many of these health indicators get better, but they don't show potential health problems," he said. '
Eating ice cream to lose weight sounds like a great pleasure, but Anthony himself vowed that it was definitely the most painful of all his weight loss challenges. Less than 50 days into the project, he began to feel weak and depressed, not interested in anything. He used to spend four to seven hours a day making videos, but at that time he could only hold on for a few minutes a day. He is even unable to maintain his daily fitness program due to lack of physical strength and energy. He said: 'I've been in a bad mood for 100 days and it's hard to get along. '
In addition, despite his impressive 32 pound weight loss, Anthony thinks a lot of it should be muscle, not fat as a weight loss goal. He doesn't feel that he's getting skinny, and that's what the picture looks like. He believes that the reason for muscle loss is that he doesn't eat enough protein, can't eat enough calories to meet the daily needs of muscle maintenance, and stops exercising every day in the middle of the day.
