Experience is the best teacher...sounds like you learned a lot!

Some people are here to reach a personal goal (ie health...weight...education etc.)....while other people are here to try and make the first group as miserable as they are. Reach your goals and ignore the background static.

I take it daily....because among other things...It is great for the hair and skin.

And I think that it is sad to see people upping their calories, hugging the couch and then swearing that EM2WL is the holy grail solution to all of their lifetime weight problems. [/quote] If you want to check something...just notice how often the same people blindly ignore other glaring factors and start right in on…

Correction...The Problem is NUTRIENTS...not CALORIES! Hair loss is a common symptom of protein deficiency. http://www.livestrong.com/article/281591-lack-of-protein-hair-loss-in-females/ Tooth decay is a common symptom of calcium deficiency. http://www.livestrong.com/article/420323-sides-effects-from-a-lack-of-calcium/ It…

Hey...now you know!...Next time you visit America...avoid the franchise eateries like the plague (that they are)....Rule of thumb...The better the restaurant the better the quality of food and the smaller the portions.

Gee...you sound just like one of those "know it all" posters that you were so critical of...OP should be able to express his opinion about this subject just as well as you. JUST BECAUSE IT (EM2LM) WORKED FOR YOU...DOES NOT MAKE IT GOSPEL!

My favorite is 4oz of chicken breast...plus a salad made up of a whole diced tomato and a whole diced cucumber (seasoned with stevia and salt substitute)...you will be stuffed...but will only be using 230 calories.

Congratulations!!!:flowerforyou:

THE EMPEROR HAS NO CLOTHES!

It has EVERYTHING to do with the topic at hand...EM2WL is trouted on this board as being the "Magic Bullet" cure for changing metabolism....So apparently...EVERYBODY does not know this!

Ed...after all of your hard work...I really doubt that you would ever go back....But my point is that the slogan "Eat more to weigh less" is not only deceptive...but it is down right dangerous for people who are not paying close attention to all of the factors. I continue to say that the advocates of "eat more" need to…

Are you saying that since Jan 2012 you have lost a total of 2lbs(when you needed to lose 34)... and yet you believe that your metabolism was "reset"?

Which is EXACTLY another point that is never really explored with all of this "Eat more business"....Ed stopped being a couch potato and became very, very physically active. (ie he created an automatic calorie deficit with all of the hard core exercise)...But here is the kicker...The minute that Ed stops exercising (but…

Congratulations...You really did a fantastic job!

HELLO......It takes 4500+ calories per day to maintain a body weight of 500+ lbs...are you saying that you continued to eat more than 4500 calories or are you saying that you dropped your calorie consumption below 4500 calories per day? If you dropped your calorie consumption below 4500 calories per day...then YOU DID NOT…

My all time favorite is bacon, lettuce and tomato.

Congratulations!!!....You really did a fantastic job!

Congratulations...You did an excellent job. Getting down to a normal BMI is my goal too!

Congratulations...you did a great job!

When you can't polish your own toe nails.

Some kinds of foods stimulate your appetite!....Up your protein....lower your grain based carbs and avoid processed salt and sugar like the plague.

You look great...congratulations!

Well...the part that is showing in the photo looks terrific!

Wow...you look fantastic...like you had a total body transplant.

You are doing a great job, Jordan.:flowerforyou:

Sugar free....I would avoid sugar before I avoid fat.

Congratulations on losing the weight and the "dead weight".:flowerforyou:

In honor of my recent weight loss...I treated myself to a bottle of French perfume..the scent is both rare and amazing...If I told you it's name and you purchased a bottle...I'd have to kill you (smile).

The late George Carlin used to call it the "Pussification of the American male.":laugh: http://youtu.be/sSrzwB1DVFs
