    Clever clever!

    I was sincerely hoping it was someone trolling and not someone actually saying "so if I have 30 lbs of fat and 115 lbs lean body mass, how many pounds of fat do i have and how do i lose it all by tomorrow?!"

    So thank you. :)

    I thought it was 115 * 30/100 - 20? And it should only take 5 days? Plus, you have to make sure to drink only pineapple juice!

    5 WHOLE days?? I don't have that kind of time. There's a wedding tomorrow that I knew about for months but just now thought about losing weight. Plus, I don't like pineapple juce (unless its with malibu)

    You are made of awesomesauce! Which, if you cut out of your diet, will help you lose a pound of fat in a week! Which will weigh the same as a pound of ... um ... butter!

    Happy Monday, all! :tongue:

    HAVE YOU SEEN THE VIDEO FOR THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???????????????? SERIOUSLY THE FUNNIEST [until you think about it and realize this girl probably graduated at the top of her high school class and then it's kinda scary] VIDEO I'VE EVER SEEN!

    You'll have to just search for it and I don't have a clue what it's called. Poor guy that recorded and posted it--prob lost that girl and she WAS real cute.
