    Why are there no gifs in this thread? This thread needs gifs.

    Lmfao. Yesterday, I went out and bought a pint of Talenti. Ate the whole thing. Lost 2 lbs the next morning. ...

    It can only be explained as science people!

    Talenti all the things!


    Hmm. I didn't even make the connection! I had a good week. I ate Talenti this week, after cheating for a few weeks with Ben and Jerry. This cannot be a coincidence.

    Also, I remember the grapefruit thing from when I was a teenager in the 80s. Was dying to try it, but discovered I couldn't stand grapefruit. Maybe I'd like it now, but the Talenti is working.

    1 pound a day does not sound healthy to me


    Thanks for saying this, because I had better clarify. I am trying to lose weight in the most healthy way possible. I am eating a ton of fruits and veggies and not starving myself by any means. But at the same time, I cannot control how fast my body burns fat.

    And it is sooo encouraging to see the numbers move, I have to admit.

    just to throw this out there. ... Healthy is in the context of an entire diet and losing too quickly can have a negative impact on health. Not sure what time frame this is. I mean, you might have weighed and then pooped. Weighing in less the next day. Dropped some water weight. See how those weights trend over several weeks... not days. You lose more than fat when you do lose. Going too quick means more likely to lose muscle too but you also lose water...not just fat... Cause. .. the more you know. ....

    We need to get our lab coats on and return to the lab to study!

    Googling grapefruit made me hangry

    I heard from two sources last week that grapefruits burn fat like crazy. So I went to the store and bought two. For the past five days, I have ate half a grapefruit for a snack. I have lost A POUND A DAY!!! This cannot be a coincidence people! Wanted to share in case this could help someone else, and also, does anyone have any grapefruit success stories? :)

    Were they organic or regular?

    On the fourth day, I went out and bought two more. No, lol, I did not get four halves into five days at a half a day.

    And it wasn't my only snack of the day, just one of my snacks.

    But totally agree with you, I never really ate them before, and they are so good!

    Sorry OP...that was all I could think about too...how did she get 5 days out of two grapefruits while eating 1/2 per day!

    I remember the grapefruit diet from many years ago except I think it was eat a 1/2 grapefruit before each meal.

    I never tried it...I hate grapefruit!

    Ate a grapefruit once and benched 800% my max for 45 reps. Burned 1,600 calories in 1 minute.
