What's a TROLL? Can I be a troll? Do trolls lose weight really fast? Is there a troll diet that is magical and will make me skinny? Why am I just now hearing about this? Do trolls lose or loose wait or weight? I gotta know...0

In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion. The noun troll may refer to the provocative message itself, as in: "That was an excellent troll you posted".
Looks a lot like a troll has been aboard this community forum!0 -
Heck if there is an answer to the op's question I would love to know it.
PLUS I want to know if there is a yummy FOOD that I can eat all day that has negative calories and/or makes me lose weight whenever I eat it.
Thank you.0 -
Trying to lose a bunch of weight quick is what got many of us here in the first place. That mindset is short sighted, and it sets up a pattern that causes weight GAIN over time.
I've been using the analogy of a budget when people ask me how I've gotten back in shape. If you like to spend money but don't keep any track of what you make and what you spend, you will have financial problems. If you spend more than you make using credit, you'll have a huge financial problem.
The same goes for food. If you like to eat but don't keep track of what you eat (take in) and how much you exercise (spend) and you will end up with a weight problem.
The fix is also similar. People who have financial troubles put themselves on a strict budget and eventually over time they get out of trouble. Put yourself on a good calorie budget and eventually over time you will be rid of your weight problem.
You can't fix either problem in 2 weeks.
Just say no. Stay on a calorie budget for the rest of your life.
When I decided to change my lifestyle I came up with this same analogy. If you don't spend more than you earn, you will save money. If you budget your calories like you budget your money, you will loose weight.
After having been very obese for many years, I am finally loosing weight consistantly and now I am living my life, rather than eating my way through it.0 -
You can dress, stand, suck it all in, and wrap it up to look thinner.0

To those saying she'll harm her body, are you having a laugh?!!
Isn't being overweight/obese harming your body for like a very long period of time? She's wanting a quick fix for i'm guessing a special occasion, so what's 14 days extreme dieting in comparison to months (or most likely years) of feeding your body too many calories!?
No one's telling her NOT to lose weight. We just want her to do it a way that's safe and healthy for her, both physically and mentally. :flowerforyou:
Some are telling her she'll harm her body, which overweight people are doing anyway, so rings of being hypocritical in my view.
Yeah, I have to agree with you on this one. I also don't get the whole wolf pack mentality. Where's the support?0 -
To the OP, my advice would be to drink LOADS of water (like, 100 ounces a day), wear a waist trimmer belt when you can, limit your sodium, eat mostly veggies and fruit. Also, exercise as much as you can.0

Invest in a pair of Spanx.....

Studies have shown for years that there's more damage to the heart, vascular system, and many other body system in the crash-diet/gain back cycle than in staying a consistent weight, even obese. Lose weight, yes. But she's setting herself up for many problems if she starts such a cycle.0 -
That is easy! I dropped 14 lbs in a day but you have to be about 9 months pregnant for this to happen...
:laugh:
Well, there's something for me to look forward too lol0 -

So... She's already harming her body by being over weight.... why shouldn't she ALSO harm her body by starving it for 14 days?
Oh yeah.... because two wrongs have NEVER made a right.0 -

are you serious? being overweight is a body in a state of unbalance, the way to fix that is not by throwing it in another extreme state of unbalance. if you mess with your metabolism too much (by either way too much food or way too little) it harms your body's ability to regulate and get to a healthy weight that will be sustainable.0 -
i tried this one diet called hcg diet under dr. simmons diet plan... it limits you to 500 calories a day and youre "supposed" to lose 1-2 pounds a day on average. only problem is it is HARD. especially if you dont buy the hcg hormone drop... its really hard and definitely not safe..... i find this site to be better. i did that diet one day and quit the very next lol... so up to you. but nothing is worth losing that much weight in such little time.0

Yes I am serious.
So you say you shouldn't mess with your metabolism if you're overweight and trying to lose weight? What like starting an exercise regime you mean...like most people are advised to do?0 -
Is it just me or does anyone else find some of the idiotic and dangerous advice that's being given out on this thread quite frightening?
I just can't believe the way some people think. I find it hard to believe that people using this site still have the mentality that there is a quick fix to weight loss and being healthy. Seriously people have you learned nothing?:noway:0 -
I am 23
5'5"
12st 8lbs or 176lbs
Okay! I know it't not healthy but its not long term I need to lose a LARGE amount of weight in 14 days its for something very special and I want to have lost a good bit of excess weight for it, please please please has anyone got any advice for this???
I URGENTLY NEED TO LOSE WEIGHT IT IS SO IMPORTANT!!! please anyone lost loads a weight in that time? anyone know what to do? I am willing to do anything it takes to lose a substantial amount (NOTICEABLE) I need it to be noticeable!!!
Try Lyle McDonald's "Rapid Weightloss Handbook"
link: http://www.bodyrecomposition.com/the-rapid-fat-loss-handbook
It's pretty much the only publication I have seen with approaches this area in a scientific and safe manner. It will work but you will have to accept that most of the weight lose will be water as opposed to fat.0 -

yep, I can't believe that some people actually gave her suggestions...0 -
Forget about trying to lose loads of weight in a short time, it isn't going to happen and you'll just make yourself unhappy.
Concentrate on eating healthily and do some enjoyable exercise, then do all the stuff to make yourself feel good like a new hair do maybe, get pampered, fab new figure flattering outfit. Build your confidence and be happy in the skin you're in and the weight will come off in a sensible time scale.
Do NOT take diet pills or drastic action as some people suggest or you'll just lose some weight but not enough to notice but your skin, hair, mood will make you look noticably awful!0 -

I agree. Two wrongs definitely don't make a right. Well put. I'm appalled at some of the denial and excuses for why it's ok to crash diet for 14 days. We all know from personal experience that it just doesn't work. As I said in my earlier post, this is a new bad habit forming. You shouldn't replace an old (bad) habit with a new one. Common sense, people. Eat less, well balanced meals, stick within your calorie range and exercise more. This is about a lifestyle change, something you do for life! If you're looking for a quick fix all the time, unwilling to do the work, you're always going to have issues. Just sayin'0

On MFP, we generally frown on unsafe weight loss. I can't give you any advice beyond how to lose 1-2 pounds per week. Otherwise, you'll need to do it under a doctor's supervision.
thankyou! I do get a bit annoyed at people who want quick fixes or advice on starvation etc. This is a healthy site for people who are in for the long haul.
Rant over!0
