    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.
    If you have white **** coming out with your urine, see a doc. It ain't fat!

    Looks like she did see a doctor....a severely uninformed one.

    Fat is stored energy. When you burn calories you are using that energy to power your body, move your muscles, transmit nerve impulses, etc. Your body breaks down the chemicals in your tissues to make ATP.

    yum.... ketosis! :laugh:
    I should add... this is assuming that one has not had white **** deposited recently that may be coming out along with the tinkle. Seriously, something to take into account.

    Let's just remember that calories are a measurement, they are not literally energy. As has been stated, the food we eat is stored as fat and glycogen and converted into energy when we need it and "Burned" The byproduct is heat.

    You should probably check with your doctor about this white stuff that's floating around in your urine, because I can promise you, it is not fat.

    posts like this make me laugh! So many "experts" out there on the Internet. Just because it's on the Internet, or google, doesn't mean it's real. White in pee. Yes, consult physician!!

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

    To whoever said you PEE it out:

    "Ketonuria is a medical condition in which ketone bodies are present in the urine.
    It is seen in conditions in which the body produces excess ketones as an alternative source of energy. It is seen during starvation or more commonly in type I diabetes mellitus. Production of ketone bodies is a normal response to a shortage of glucose, meant to provide an alternate source of fuel from fatty acids."

    Note where it said DURING STARVATION or in Diabetics...

    This is not a "common" type of "where does my fat go?". It is not something to strive for or be pleased to see. It is actually bad.

    I checked her diary, and assuming she's logging everything, it's more than likely from starvation. Some days she's only eating 500 calories, others it's only 800. I hope she gets help.

    Every time I lose a pound, I look for it everywhere. My pants pockets, the bottom of my purse, under the bed! And I never do figure out where the heck it goes!

    hahaha,.. i love this.

    When I was pregnant and couldn't keep anything down for days, this didn't happen to me. She must have been on her diet a ling, long time. And she needs a new doctor.
