    I was so mad when I weighed myself this morning.. i had a USB thumbdrive in my pocket with TONS of pictures on it...

    Do I subtract the GB from my weight? Or should I wipe the drive and then weigh myself, subtracting the difference?
    Were they 4x6s or 5x7s?

    They were scans of polaroids. ACK!

    They were heavy pictures, too. Elephants, buildings, Jabba the Hut... I'm so ashamed.

    That makes it easier! You'll want to weigh the original polaroids separately and subtract that total from your morning weight. Subtracting the GB won't work because they weigh diffently depending on the data they contain. Good luck!

    It's pretty obvious to me you're taking in waaaay to much sodium. That water retention is a bi**h!

    dude! you're fccking up, have you tried detox shakes? try juicing for a whole month, if these don't work then you can't go wrong with the HCG diet.

    <-- has a high-quality supply of HCG available for purchase... Fresh too!

    BEST POST EVER!!!!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    What did you eat? A pound of muscle weighs more than a pound of fat.

    Why would anyone eat a pound of muscle?

    You obviously don't appreciate a nice steak.

    I weighed myself before and after lunch, I gained 2.5lbs
    My lunch was only 1000 calories, I also had several glasses of ice cold water (0 cals)

    I guess the rule does not work with me, in my case 1000 calories is actually 2.5lbs

    I think you might have misunderstood the 3500 cals is one pound. Yes, it is, but you would have to be 3500 cal over your metabolic calorie intake ( after all of your activities ) in order to gain a pound. That what you gained is not in fat, it probably water weight and bloading which is acuring after we eat. Those 2,5 pound will be most likely gone tomorrow or the day after tomorrow :-D

    A pound of muscle weighs one pound.
    A pound of fat weighs one pound.

    A pound of feathers weighs one pound.
    A pound of rocks weighs one pound.

    Some of you made my day --- an awful lot of you make me worry about the survival of the species. Maybe 12/21/12 is a good day to call it a game, after all...

    it's 3500 calories in a pound of fat. OP is assuming that fat is the only thing your body can lose and the only thing that affects his body weight.

    that's cute

    The best part about this thread is the people jumping in that actually think OP is serious. They are the funniest without even trying. Goes to prove that it is funnier to laugh AT than laugh WITH. Teeheehee.

    This is some serious *kitten*.

    What did you eat? I'm writing a book on bulking. Case study of success? I think so. Don't worry, I won't use your name, mostly because I have no desire to pay you.
