Listen to Sara. She is wise. Patience is the only thing that will tighten up loose skin. Or a good plastic surgeon. You should be healed in 8 weeks.

Your BMR (base metabolic rate: what they feed you in a coma) is 1367. To maintain current weight: 1640 calories. So to lose fat at a 15% reduction in calories, you are looking at 1394 calories.

Upping your calories most certainly can and will help. How tall are you?

How about you are eating less than 1000 calories a day? You are not eating enough. You would get more calories intravenously if you were in a coma (not kidding here.). http://scoobysworkshop.com/calorie-calculator/ Use this to figure out where you should be. Plus all the things @diannethegeek posted above.

Oh honey. Here's the thing. If I could go back and tell my 18 year old self one thing, it would be to stop worrying so much about a number on a scale. I was 5'10" by senior year, and weighed 150#. Perfect weight for my height...but I thought I was fat. What. An. Idiot. My thighs were big, so much bigger compared to my…

I'm guessing she plans to be vegan. Side note, I think taking your own food to a restaurant is unsanitary and exceptionally rude.

LOGIC. Thank god.

I am so over this girl code *kitten*. Seriously? If you want to meet him for a drink, do so in a public, safe location. If not, don't. You're a grown woman. Girl code my @ss.

Oh dear god. RUUUUUNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!

Christmas Abbott is my girl crush. <3

You body uses carbs for energy and all sorts of other things. Cutting them out is not sustainable for the long term. http://www.cdc.gov/nutrition/everyone/basics/carbs.html

+ infinity. I am not a fan of veggies, but I sneak them in anywhere and everywhere I can. For example, I HATEHATEHATE mushrooms. I made chicken pot pie last week, and mixed very finely diced mushrooms into the sauce. Didn't even know they were there. When I make fresh tomato sauce, I often do a half&half: half tomatoes,…

I am not even sure what the OP said. It appears english is their second language. clarify?

For some reason, this article p!sses me off. Run to slim calves?? Have you ever actually SEEN a runners legs? Jesus H. Christ at the NO in this article.

No thanks. I like my liver and kidneys.

In the words of the immortal Cranquistador... NO.

LMAO @ DavPul #funnybecauseit'strue

It has been 21 days since you started MFP, and you complain that the scale has not moved. What were your expectations? You have 34 pounds left to go. Did you put that weight on in three weeks? Or did it creep over months or years? Weight gain didn't happen overnight. Thusly, weight loss will also not happen overnight. The…

This is the second post in 10 minutes about people not eating enough. I have a silly question: how does that happen?? I simply don't understand. We are all fat because we ate too much...yet now we cannot eat enough? I am completely mind-boggled.

"Am I being healthy with still 700-900 calories left to my count at the end of the day?" NO. Google "scooby calculator" and it will give you a more accurate calorie count. If you don't fuel the vehicle, it will eventually run out of gas. You need to eat more.

Fat, Sick & Nearly Dead, Vegucated, Forks over Knives...these do not meet my definition of what is a documentary. That implies that they are a non-biased presentation of factual scientific or historical information. Documentary makes me think of PBS or the History Channel. Those movies do no such thing. They are one sided…

STILL WAITING ON THE OP FOR REFERENCES OTHER THAN NETFLIX. Let me help you out...American Journal of Medicine blog: http://amjmed.org/juicing-is-not-all-juicy/ http://www.amjmed.com/article/S0002-9343(13)00344-6/abstract http://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2013/08/reduce-type-2-diabetes-risk/ All with links to peer…

Ladies and gentlemen, we have in our presence, a rare, shiny unicorn! Unless you have a medical condition you are not sharing, eat less move more works for EVERYONE. I'm out. The level of ignorance is well past my fill for the day.

I...I...I can't even. You stated juicing was OK because Grandma did it. My argument was that Grandma and her generation also smoked cigarettes and drank whiskey during pregnancy. How is this off topic to you? Still waiting on your other references...

And I noticed you have YET to tell me what research you did other than Netflix. Still waiting. Send me a private message if you prefer.

Oh wait...read back...I do believe I stated that I have done this before. It doesn't work. Once a day for breakfast: just fine. All day, everyday: not fine. As it seems you only want to hear from those who will tell you how wonderful this is and pat you on the head and tell you you're pretty, might I suggest searching the…

Sorry love, but if you did your research, you would not be juicing full time. Please tell me what your research consisted of, because I am eager to know. Netflix does not count. ETA: short term success =/= knowledge.

Grandma and her generation also smoked cigarettes and drank whiskey during pregnancy. Is that still OK too? Your argument is not valid.

First, fixed some things for you. Second, you are not doing what has worked for 100, even 1000 years. This is quite frankly ridiculous. Humans eat meat and plants. So unless you are grazing for your fruits and veg, and hunting for your meats, you are doing no such thing. And you are not getting all your NUTRIENTS, because…

That movie was complete garbage in my opinion. We have teeth because we are supposed to eat all teh foodz, and we have canines specifically because MEAT. I am all for incorporating juicing as part of a healthy balanced diet, but all juice all the time does not seem like a good idea for the long term. I often juice for…
