    you just need to eat well and exercise, drinking plenty of water. Also your picture appears to be extremely slim and therefore further weight loss is not recommended.

    Do you actually weight 97 pounds now and is that you in your profile picture?

    if you answered yes to either of those... you may have a problem. Don't try losing weight. Try seeking psychiatric help...

    Lower your carb intake, increase your protein and keep moving. Lots of water as well. Good luck.

    If she is exactly five foot or below in height then 97 pounds (44 kilos) is low but not underweight but low end of the scale. Any height above that (five foot one and above ) and she falls under the underweight catagory.

    So if she is only five foot she doesnt need to lose weight. if she is above that then she is already underweight and definatly should not be looking to lose yet another 10 pounds!


    So the questions are valid and not harsh. If its a matter of ED professional help should be sought, its a serious illness. Better to ask the hard questions and be proved wrong by the OP saying that isnt her pic or weight than to encourage someone to damage their body further.

    Call it what you want, but if she is trying to get to an unhealthy underweight condition, I don't want to feed that... and if she has a problem, she needs to seek help. Period. Better than people lying to her while she slowly kills herself.

    To each their own, perhaps... but this site does not encourage unhealthy ways-hence the name "myFITNESSpal." It isn't supposed to be for those who are slowly committing suicide by starvation, and encouraging it is against the rules.

    Dem's da berries...

    if you do it the healthy way it will take at least 5 weeks if you lose 2 lb a week. even that seems like a lot to lose. i'd just go at it slow with the right eating and exercise.

    that being said, unless you are overweight you probably only want to drop 1/2 lb a week if you are in a healthy BMI range.

    What is the FG method?
  • frugalmomsrock
    frugalmomsrock Posts: 1,123
    Tocasil-FG maybe? A weightloss pill?

    Personally, I'd rather do it the healthy way: a healthy diet, cardio, heavy lifting, and TIME.

    Or maybe 97 lbs is the target weight they are trying too loss. Or maybe the original poster is full of ****

    The FG method is the Forrest Gump method. Simple, time effective and cost effective.

    Buy yourself a good pair of runners(i like aiscs myself) and simply RUN. You'd be amazed at how well it works

    It's asking a question--hence the question marks... get a clue and YOU stop jumping to conclusions. I was asking, "maybe it's in reference to the weightloss pill?"


    Aside from that... if 13 pounds in 3 weeks are being lost, there's a fair chance that someone is netting far too few calories and jeopardizing their muscle mass in the long run of things. Just sayin'.

    Nope, but I see you shut down your diary so that the proof is no longer available. ROFL! You are netting very low. That isn't healthy. It's what this website is about, and I could find numerous articles by these "qualified" people you're referring to, and they will say that a man eating below 1500 calories a day is not healthy. Sorry if you don't like the truth. I know it can occasionally hurt. Get over it.

    Did you guys scare her away? I am very concerned about the poster of this thread.
    Her picture reminds me of all those girls on tumblr and their "thinspo/thinspiration" blogs. Its very sick and very sad to read through those in case you people have never heard of it. (I had not until recently, instagram, tumblr, facebook and pinterest are all fighting battles against blocking the promotion of ED, like #thinspo does)
    I really hope she did not come here in hopes to aid her in that way :(

    Gotta love how judgmental people on this site are. Walk in someone else's moccasins before you throw stones at them.

    And after that, mind your own business.
