    I am sure it does.The calories burned show be proportional to the unpleasantness of the experience.

    Only if you lift yourself off the toilet, kind of like bench dips, while doing it.

    Depends... Do you exert so much energy that you sweat buckets and your face turns red?

    Back a few months ago I cooked buttermilk pancakes for breakfast. It turns out the buttermilk had expired a week prior (tastes the same). I got wicked food poisoning. My weekly weigh-in was the next day and I lost 6 pounds for the week. Of course 3 days later I got on the stage and had put 3 1/2 of it back.

    OMG!!! SERIOUSLY!!!:noway: :laugh:

    Diarrhea is lose of fluids...the large intestine is responsible for water absorption

    Chronic constant diarrhea will result in loss of electrolytes (sodium and potassium)

    On the bright side, if you drink it, you don't have to log it as increased calories or increased sodium.

    Actually, if it's diarrhea from food poisoning or another stomach virus, your body isn't absorbing all the nutrients in your food. I don't know how many calories of the fluid your body may be passing, but since your body is passing the food so quickly, it can't absorb or metabolize all of it so yes, you are losing calories. Isn't this a similar concept to taking laxatives for weight loss? (Please don't do that, though. It's horrible for your GI system and liver.)
