    Back to your normally scheduled programming about people wondering if 1200 calories is ok.

    I know right. 1200 calories is crazy! Those people will go into starvation mode and die a horrible flabby death.

    lmao.. not quite.. but hey.. to each their own. :~) what if 1200 is an *increase* from what was being eating.. then the body is like.. wow.. i'm getting food.. lets start working properly again! whoohooo..

    Actually i just bravely upped my calorie goals to 1600 starting tomorrow. We shall see if I can hit it everyday. :~)

    soo bad, cholesterol durrr not to mention the fat! whites only ever!


    Sorry but you are so, so wrong. Again this is hold over from bad information from the 90's. Eating cholesterol does not get suddenly deposited on your arteries, it is broken down like everything else we eat. Also, there is nothing wrong with fat in moderation, eggs contain some of the healthiest fats. A balanced diet is key, protein, carbs AND fats are all essential.

    LOL. People can get really harsh on here at times especially when they are defending their choice of life style.. do we dare mention the word "diet" and "Do they work"

    Bumping because I saw a low fat thread.

    As for the mean thing? I'm mean because I'm mean. You, a kitten, a cute little meerkat. Doesn't matter, I'll give you a glower.

    That's a funny word, glower. Is there power in a glower? Will it engender fear if you cover yourself in flour, and then glower while screaming I have the flour power?

    You are not lame. You asked a legit question that many new members are confused by.

    Yeah, let's be clear, you're not lame for asking it.

    (You are lame for not searching first! ;) I kid...)

    Lame would be just doing it without asking or thinking why.

    But...should I eat back my exercise calories?

    I tried to, but I am having difficulty telling my calories apart. Are the exercise calories the lumpy ones, the fuzzy ones or the lumpy fuzzy ones?

    I've had that low fat, no fat stuff for so long, that I just can't do it anymore. :smile: I'd rather just have less of the regular stuff.
