    YAYY You're amazing every single person on MFP should read this.

    My favorite part:

    Some looking for a quick fix because 'they are fat' turn to a VLCD, though what they're initially doing is quickly depleting glycogen stores and slowing their metabolism. Donating blood also works to lose weight quickly. Both Glycogen and blood comes back in a healthy body, so it's eventually a losing battle. It's like Cinderella at 12 O'Clock after she lost her bloody glycogen shoe. When things go back to 'normal', everything is going to revert to equilibrium. But that doesn't mean she needs a VLCD ferry to get what she wants. Have your pumpkin carriage and eat it too (have I gone to far yet?).

    Hilarious!

    Well written and cited and thought out, thank you!

    I really object to the fact that you are saying 22.9 is the highest healthy BMI. That is false. You should change your information on that issue because it discredits the rest of what you have to say, which is actually very valuable.

    Nowhere did I say that 22.9 is the absolute highest value. There are several bmi charts like I mentioned all the ones I have come across include that in their normal, tho some of the international charts list 22.9 as the highest healthy value. So no, it is not false for some versions. I mentioned most bmi charts include that range as healthy. I did not say it is the highest. Kinda surprised after hinting that I do not like the bmi scale (basically because of reasons like these) the only critique is people want to hear that the healthy range should be higher. It is in places. And some people would still be in the obese section because of muscles. It is what it is. There are other ways to judge health (thank goodness).

    You look fantastic btw. You are ripped!

    Looks like everything I've learned in my nutrition textbooks - the scientific approach indeed :) I only skimmed but everything looked good to me. Seal of approval from a future dietitian.

    Woo ;) Goodluck on your future endeavours.
