Thanks. When you say that
it also could be "less calories = less work"
do you mean that this is a plausible hypothesis, supported by evidence, or just a speculation which would, if true, explain why calorie restriction might not work for Eliezer? If the former, could you point me to the relevant evidence?
Do a three day fast and see if you can still be as active physically at the end as you are at the moment. That's a very easy experiment.
If you don't believe that changes in eating have any effect on how your body works there not even a price involved.
Haven't had one of these for awhile. This thread is for questions or comments that you've felt silly about not knowing/understanding. Let's try to exchange info that seems obvious, knowing that due to the illusion of transparency it really isn't so obvious!
