People losing weight with lots of cardio

You could set your watch by them. Seriously.

What exactly do you mean by this? Are your supportive of the OP's potentially dangerous weight loss aspirations and upset that MFP members would tell her so? Or, was the OP's post a fake one and an attempt at some sick psycho-social experiment to watch how regular & frequent MFP posters would respond to such a crazy weight loss scheme?

Either way, shame of you (and the OP if applicable).

I just want to know what you were eating to get fat, while running two hours a day?!?!

Wow, 150 is fat for 5'6"!?? Hmmm what was I thinking, my goal weight is 155-160.smdh

It's certainly not thin. Check the charts.

It may be a good first step goal, but the reality is that it is still overweight. Don't get offended by people further along in the process.

You could set your watch by them. Seriously.

So you think this plan is healthy and the OP should go ahead with it?

Keep listening to your body and you're going to end up in the hospital.

10 mile run and only eating 1100 calories? This screams eating disorder. Or at least headed down that road. Starving, then binging, then starving, then anorexia, etc.

Eat a reasonable amount of calories. "Listening to your body" is a copout excuse. There's a reason we have brains, our brains allow us to use intelligence to survive. Extensive cardio has an appetite blunting effect. Hormones responsible for hunger and satiety are trained to respond to eating patterns.

Eat more. As a marathon runner, you should know better.

Trust me...I eat, alot, and am not an anorexic person defending people with eating disorders, but this single day of eating is not criteria for an eating disorder, like anorexia. If the person said things like, "I ran 10 miles after I ate 1100 calories for the day because I was afraid of getting fat" or "I only ate 1100 calories today because I was feeling fat" etc. they may have some disordered thinking. This person said they know they didn't eat enough that day, but felt great anyway, and listened to their body. That is called intuitive eating. Yes, her calories were way low for that single day, but mindset is not that of someone with an eating disorder. Someone with anorexia feels tortured when they have to eat, feels deep guilt and regret for eating almost any food containing calories and has an overwhelming fear of getting fat, even when they are no where near fat. Just some "food for thought'

So now pizza is junk food?

Depends on the pizza perhaps but the ones I ate were most definitely junk food.

So if I go to my local pizzeria, order 2 plain slices, is that junk food?

Seriously? I'm not the pizza police - just saying I ate a lot of junk food including pizza - the pizzas I ate were junk, I didn't state ALL pizza was junk food. I think maybe you might need to sit down with a nice cup of tea and relax a little. :laugh:

You missed the first post (now deleted) where the OP said she only planned to eat 1000 calories a day while running 10 miles a day for the next three weeks. She's since 'cleaned' it up to try to avoid her third deleted thread in the past 12 hours.

Planning to eat 1000 calories doesn't sound very intuitive to me.

I'm not a Vegan but I am a Vegetarian. I have to eat fish once in a while. (Shame????)

Then you're not a vegan or a vegetarian. You're a pescetarian.

Vegetarian - Does not eat ANY meat. Is allowed dairy.
Vegan - Does not eat ANY meat or dairy.
Pescetarian - Does not eat meat EXCEPT for seafood. Is also allowed dairy.

Do you know how you can tell if someone is vegan? Don't worry, they'll f***ing tell you they're vegan!!!

even when they are not. :laugh:

You're joking right? Come off the forum? Don't you realise how dangerous that is for people in the 'fragile ego' category.

Without.... attention... they cannot.. will... not survive

Do you WANT people to be HOSPITALISED or something!? :noway:

I apologise profusely, I most certainly would not want to damage an ego, especially one of the fragile kind! I retract aforementioned statement - please continue :laugh:
