They would've lost weight by sticking to a 800 calorie juice diet with or without that patch. Moronic.

Not sure if it would be considered a sport, but... Hiking!

Thanks for all the info guys. Appreciate it! I have acquired Thinner Leaner Stronger which is going to be my weekend reading. Couple of points- 1. I am not starving myself.

MFP has set a 1240 calories per day goal for me, and for the past two days, I've been under. I've been trying different diet and exercise routines for the past 3-4 months but nothing seems to be having…
