Unless it's the old "non brewed condiment" some residue from coal tar production.
Yes, isn't that the stuff they have in chippies these days!

I had a quick read, I've never heard of thermodynamics being related to food,. I presume my calorie intake must be greater than the caroriies I burn as i feel as though I am getting heavier, I don't weigh myself and I've never counted a calorie in or out, I do push ups pull ups and Squats, muscle burns fat and a strong core is essential as one gets older
I'm not convinced it is for a whole host of reasons, some addressed here:
Why “Calories in, Calories out” Doesn't Tell the Whole Story
And think about all those people that go on calorie restricted diets and lose the weight but then when they stop it all goes back with more.
Also consider how emotions can impact on eating

When I first saw the thread I expected it to be advice for a healthy breakfast after your overnight 'oats'.I keep seeing the thread title as ‘Healthy Breakfast Overnight Cats’
Beware Targa mmmm

i agree.... I’ve had a few friends who did Weight Watchers and lost a lot of weight quickly, but some of that was muscle mass. When they put weight on again it turned straight to fat.I'm not convinced it is for a whole host of reasons, some addressed here:

That may be so. Muscle is heavier than fat. Further to what I said above in reply to Jeanette, it’s important to build muscle after losing weight and find out the best exercises to do that. Weight training isn’t always the best thing to do, nor jogging. Personally, I like to exercise because it makes me feel good.I disagree ... Food is way more important than exercise for maintaining a good weight.
I don't exercise and never have!

Have you got your specs on Kev?I keep seeing the thread title as ‘Healthy Breakfast Overnight Cats’

You may WANT that food, but you do not NEED it.
I have, i love itIf you develop (by whatever means) a good relationship with food,
Your choiceI disagree ... Food is way more important than exercise for maintaining a good weight.

Your choice
But exercise (from walking to the car to running gaunt) is a part of the equation, no matter how little you do
If calories in exceed calories out you gain weight, and visa versa
Calories in = what you eat or drink
Calories out = metabolism + exercise
This view suits my style of thinking

No... you’ve misunderstood what I meant, but my fault for not explaining properly. It’s true what you say but it’s also meaningless.umm ... a pound of fat and a pound of muscle weigh the same - a pound!
Muscle is more dense, so takes up less volume,
I agree that being active and doing something that you enjoy is good for your mental health, and if you feel good mentally, then you are more likely to have a positive attitude which will help regardless of what approach you take to maintain a good weight.
. Muscle is heavier than fat.
I don't think an example like gold is heavier than feathers would be misunderstood.umm ... a pound of fat and a pound of muscle weigh the same - a pound!

Can I bring a few friends to watch?Personally, I like to exercise because it makes me feel good.
You will always be able to have control of your food intake, however, ill health or old age will reduce your exercise options.
Now that's confusingI don't think an example like gold is heavier than feathers would be misunderstood
Reduce/control food intake and you will lose weight. Reduce exercise and you will reduce your exercise options. The relevance of food and exercise vary depending on whether your objective is weight loss or long term health.
You're being dense.Now that's confusing
