    (Potential Energy-->stored as fat-->turned into glucose) & O2 --> Energy & H20 & C02. Respiration equation.

    Energy transfers are fascinating (imho). Sunlight turned into food by plants like grass by photosynthesis. Grass eaten by cow, turned into milk. Person drinks milk, climbs a tall building and what he loses in food energy is converted into heat energy (he's hot and sweaty) and potential energy, due to his height.

    He falls off the building by accident, onto someone's car and his potential energy is transferred into force energy (f=ma) which dents the car as he rapidly decelerates on impact and dents him, too (a bit but he gets up walks off, lives happily ever after) and then into sound energy which makes the bang.

    Jaysus am I still talking? I need to go to bed...

    After reading the responses on this post I figure this would be a good place to ask a question ive been wondering lately.....how long does it take for your body to digest and use the food we eat? Like, how long does it take for our body to turn a bunch of calories and fat into fat we store and are currently trying to get rid of, lol. I hope this isnt a stupid question, but its very interestingto me, how the body works. Its been a long time since high school and I dont remember ever learning how long it takes. Sounds like a lot of you are very smart, so educate me, please!! ; )

    well you can stay at maintainance at burn 500 cals a day n you will lose a pound every week.
    2nd ques when you are burning fat look for when thing when you go to toilet to pee you will notice something white in your pee is like chicken fat thats how some of your fat comes out n some as a sweat. because when i did a diet few years back when the white thing came in pee i got scared that its something serious but found out its nothing just fat so a doctor knows best.

    White stuff in your pee huh?.....I'd be going to the pharmacy for Vagisil for that. That does not sound good:wink:

    The fat's only white if it solidifies ie would have to drop from body temperature to room temperature.

    For heaven's sake - she needs to flush! ;-)

    This is why you shouldn't take online health advice too seriously...

    The human body is the best filter on planet earth. It converts fat into energy that burns up into liquid, gases, and solid waste.

    "When a pound is lost, where does it go?"

    Heat. You burn more calories per day just maintaining your body temperature than anything else unless you are doing a pretty insane workout routine.

    In general, they don't stay lost for long. They have little GPSs and if you don't want them anymore, they'll find the closest cookie eater and move in. This happens frequently at Christmas parties.
