    I agree with you here!:) Totally agree. It just gets under my skin when people call a certain way to lose weight a myth or say that it doesnt work. There are many paths to weight lose, and many ways! Some methods work for some whereas it wouldnt work for another person. You just have to find the way that works for you, your body and your life. Just because one method doesnt work for me, Im not going to go out and say that this method doesnt work or is a myth because thats not true. Its dodnt work for ME, therefor as long as its a healthy way I will support any and all methods regardless of if it worked for me.

    I stated it was a myth because the person I quoted said you need to eat low carb - which IS a myth :)

    Then instead of just saying..."Thats a Myth" and not saying anything else, you should have said, True that does work for many, but thats not the only way that works, theres many others that work also, you just have to find out which one works for your body.

    This is all so complicated. So do I eat my exercise calories back or not?

    I think he is saying that if you gain back a pound of fat, you could have put on a pound of muscle, and would weigh less.

    Oooh so that burger I ate didn't make we retain water, I just gained a pound of muscle. I think I'm getting the hang of this thing.

    Burger IS muscle, cow muscle, so of course it converts straight into human muscle :smh:

    I heard that every time a cow is slaughtered to make burgers/convert to human muscle, an angel gets its wings.

    You can eat all the veggies you want ... but you MUST eat a whole grapefruit and drink a diet pop just before bed. Then the calories don't count. ;-)

    If only people grasped the irony of preaching your own "truth" on a parody thread then getting offended because it doesn't stop being a parody thread.

    And you should never eat back exercise calories, ever ever, unless you are standing on your head in a dark room in front of a congregation of disgruntled leprechauns & even then the only suitable food would be chia covered grass fed free range turkeys from the mountains of Vahalla, cooked to the precise internal temperature of 170 degrees.

    too much oxygen is actually bad for you

    I think it was just a typo... What was meant was:

    You can't have too much sex or orgasms.

    As long as the cows don't get the wings. I do not want that kind of pat on the head!

    Doesn't anyone on this forum know that dark chocolate contains the one molecule in the universe that does not obey the laws of physics and is made up of anti-calories. Jeesh!!

    Well in order for that to happen, a virgin has to be sacrificed on top of a volcano to appease the weight loss gods.
