So, sincere question...why do so many people say, on this board as well as other LC boards, to drop all dairy "because it will stop weight loss." What exactly is the process, biologically, whereby that occurs? If a string cheese, for instance, has 1g of carbs, a dollop of sour cream less than .5 grams, I'm perplexed as to people's immediate insistence, as I see often, that if you're not losing weight it must be the cheese.
I'm not talking about people with dairy intolerance issues. And I know some people suggest this because it's easy to gorge on cheese if you're not careful, but that's not what I'm asking...I'm trying to understand what someone thinks is different about how the body processes a string cheese stick versus a burger patty that results in no weight loss. Huh? I just confess I've never understood this argument. I'm not trying to self-justify or anything, cheese is only an occasional condiment for me, I'm just sincerely trying to understand if this is biological reality or LC myth?
