Why exactly do you need 5000 mg's of fish? Maybe I'm missing something here.

All food groups in moderation.

I was skeptical about fish oil so a few years ago I took it for a month and didn’t change anything about my diet or exercise routine and I lost 3 pounds.  While that is fat loss, you aren’t going to notice that by just looking at someone. You do realize that, right?

I don’t think anyone is suggestion fish oil is a “magic pill.” However, numerous studies have shown that if taken properly, fish oil can promote fat loss. Not massive amounts of fat loss, but fat loss none the less.

 

Oh so now it's a little fat loss. And how the hell would you conclude that fish oil was responsible for your 3 lb weight loss?? A ton of things can account for +/- 3 lbs. And on top of that how do you know it was fat loss and not water or lean mass??

I took fish oil. I didn't vary diet or exercise one bit from previous month. I lost 3 lbs. That means fish oil equals loss of 3 lbs of fat.

 

Keep believing.

I take it and I have an overall sense of well being, its hard to articulate. I'm just content and I feel more sharp, I never feel lethargic. Wake up in the morning feeling great and ready to go.

It seems it just isn’t getting through to you so how about this:

I will believe what the majority of the scientific studies on the issue concluded and my own personal experience.

You believe what one study concluded and your own personal conclusions from staring at “fat asses that take fish oil.”

But then again I also quit drinking the day I got back from Thailand so maybe that has something to do with it as well

Fish oil is good for you but to think you can just take this stuff and feel great and lose body fat is ludicrous. If it were that easy don't you think everyone would just take this stuff and be in great shape and feel energized??

   Take the magic pill and shed pounds.



Hockey sucks man!  So does fish oil!  I am a fucking expert on all of this shit!

Alright buddy, turn the douchebagness down a tone.
