    This is the greatest idea ever!

    Everyone knows that a pound of hair weighs more than a pound of fat, so you can probably lose at a tremendous pace!

    Everyone knows the OP will be in starvation mode before this is even relevant.

    I'm a hairy dude, I should try this. What about women with long locks? I bet you could lose a few ounces easily.
    i lose about 1/2 a lb when i go from long to short again after growing out an old dye job but thats only cause my hair is really thick and to keep from going to short with the next cut i have to literally grow it to my waist

    Great after pic. Do you have any before and during pics so we can see your progress?

    Btw, your hare looks fantastic, too.

    I really really want to loose weight and i've already tried everything like adkins, master cleanse, water diet, fat flush soup, and hgc. I just now got a great idea. What about body hair? They say the human body has over 1,000 hairs on it. And each hair weighs a non-zero amount. If I shaved off all my body hair, I think I can loose some weight. Has anyone tried that, and did it work? Thank you I'm desparate. lol

    I was reading a text book my daughter got from school the other day. Apparently humans have the same number of hairs as chimpanzees, they are just finer and less noticable.

    I am actually as hairy as a monkey! Who knew!?
