    But I appreciate your tenacity. This was something else to either write or copy/paste. Depending which method you used.

    Very very interesting read. Well informative. And very true.

    A large part if why people using MFP have trouble losing weight. They have no idea how to use MATH. Like ALL things in life, Weight lose is all part of a mathematical equation. Do some simple math, CORRECTLY, and anyone will lose weight.

    Bravo, well written.

    This is great! It's nice to hear someone say an injured metabolism can be repaired. That's rare to hear, but motivating. I particularly enjoyed the info on glycogen.

    Of course it can be repaired. Doing the opposite of what damaged it is all it takes. It's advisable to do it in increments in order not to balloon up, but yep...what you've (plural) done, can absolutely be undone :).

    The human body is an amazing thing!

    I've seen it reversed many a time. I've seen a close friend very sick and diagnosed with medical problems and gaining on very little to problem be gone. Apparently all from telling her to eat more. Fuel, it's a powerful thing.

    I did not read. But I am sure it was good.
  • "When you look at a box of food, the nutritional information is usually based on 2000 kcal/day and is known as a DV (Daily Value). This information is from the RDI (Reference Daily Intake) info which is regulated by Health Canada and the FDA (Food and Drug Administration). The RDI is suppose to give sufficient requirements to fulfill 97.5% of a healthy persons diet. These values are based on averages. This means that just because it says a specific 8 ounce drink is 150 calories, doesn't mean it actually is."

    I think that the recommended percentage that comes after it (ex: 2% daily value of total fat) is based on the 2000 kcal/day recommendation. The item itself is still 150 calories, but the percentage of your total may change based on your calorie needs. Does that make sense? I mean we can pretty much exactly determine how many calories something is based on how much heat it generates, but how it fits into your macros is a whole other story.
