Starvation Mode

I would like to clear some things up about this hotly contested topic.

There is the argument that Starvation Mode does, or does not, exist.
Let me assure you, it does.

Then this is the debate if Starvation mode can cause you to stop losing weight, or even gain it back. Even lose Muscle...
Meh, who cares.

There is a real concern with the Starvation Mode that goes beyond these petty problems, and that is what it does to those of us that regularly visit the forums.

The majority of people that join this Site are happy, helpful, enthusiastic, and generally care about their fellow MFP'ers. However, after just a couple months of operating at a Calorie deficit, they become moody and angry. It takes little time at all really before they become sarcastic, snide, snarky, or worst of all, develop their own opinions!

Just look at my friend, Crankst. At one time, this was her. Smiling, happy, and enjoying the delicious foods. She even still uses this picture to to help hide her Starvation Mode Misery



Now look at her.




So remember folks, if you find yourself on the forums wanting to share an opion or say something sarcastic...Don't. Instead, eat this.
