What I've learned...

These are some helpful things I've learned from the MFP forums lately. I hope these snippets of knowledge and advice will help everyone on their weight loss journey.
- If you don't eat at least 1200 calories a day, you WILL drop dead.
- Eating disorders don't exist, those people just want attention
- Any food you previously thought was healthy is unhealthy. Really, you should just not eat anything to be safe. However, you would then not hit 1200 calories a day and almost immediately drop dead.
- If your exercise routine isn't exactly like mine, you might as well not even be exercising.
- Every "study" you find on the internet is true, even if you find several studies that contradict each other. A good technique is to believe one study per day.
- Don't eat any carbs. At all. Ever. You will drop dead. If you've ever eaten a carb, you should be dead by now.
- All your calories should be carbs. The human body functions solely on carbs. Didn't you see that study? Yeah, go eat some bagels or some ****. You're gonna drop dead.
- Starvation mode definitely does NOT defy the law of conservation of mass. Physics? Screw it. Did physics ever help you lose weight? No? See, lying *kitten*.
- Finally, you should never, EVER listen to your own body. Don't feel hungry? Feel hungry? Well, too bad. If the people on the internet say to do something, you'd better f*cking do it or you're going to gain 132 pounds tonight.

Wow, I bet you are losing so much weight! You are doing so well, young grasshopper.0 -
I have nothing to say, cause I'm tired.
Why doesn't MFP have a "like" button.
I probably haven't had enough carbs today, or did I have too many?
Am I gonna die now? Oh well. I'm tired anyways.0 -
