  • So I don't know what PCOS is, googling it from WebMD it says one of the symptoms is weight gain. So you might want to check with more experienced people i.e. doctors about your particular condition.
  • Thanks Evgeni I will request thyroid t3 checked on my next visit to the doctor. Also I think stabilizing for a month.
  • Evgeni - great post, I am still learning about weight loss. Don't know if starvation mode affects everyone the same, six months ago I was 370lb, with 46% body fat came down to 296 lb with 35% body fat. Also I went from pants size 44 to 36. Most of this was done by eating around 1000-1500 calorie diet (very low carb, mostly…
  • 5.6 lb in 2 weeks is not bad but if you want it faster you can do it. First two weeks you drop lots of water weight, after that it is normal to slow once you just start burning fat. When I slowed down I did intermittent fasting - was dropping 1lb a day - see leangains website has lots of details about it. Also look…
  • Single guys have every right to go after women in relationships ? Sure you have the right - but the men in the relationship with the woman you are after also has right to show you in a nice, non violent way, how that is wrong - if you get my idea. If you play with fire be ready to take what's coming after.
  • If it is a complex job as installing winter tires and they went completely out of way to help you out it's 30%. Then I also must agree with the second poster - if you wear your red dress - no tip is necessary.
  • Is 31 cal/lb fat same for everyone ? If we assume 3500 cal per lb of fat then this gives 31/3500 = 0.88% loss of fat per day max. But is .88% same for all of us ? What happens if you have greater caloric deficit - do you lose muscle ? Look at this guy http://www.abc.net.au/science/articles/2012/07/24/3549931.htm This…
  • Hi Ncoors What type of food are you eating? I am also eating low calories and read that you will always plateau - theory was that water collects for some time and then is released within a week you should break the plateau. You can read Lyle McDonald has several books on this. Also you seem to be very close to your goal -…
  • Why lose weight so quick ? Look up Why Zebras Don't Get Ulcers: An Updated Guide to Stress, Stress Related Diseases, and Coping by Robert M. Sapolsky
  • Wow !!! Thanks for sharing your story Jamie
  • One slice of Pizza Hut stuffed crust pepperoni pizza = 420 Calories 13 cups of chopped broccoli = 403 Calories Is calorie still a calorie ? Yes. But what are you more likely to overeat - 14th cup of chopped broccoli or second slice of pizza?
  • Hi - according to this guy http://www.dietdoctor.com/how-to-lose-weight You should eat when hungry I have been following it and am progressing steadily. The less you eat - the more you will lose. If you eat enough of good stuff - 1200 calories is more than enough. What you want is the body to start melting fat. What I was…
  • I am doing it right now. My BMR is about 2500 and I add around 1000 with exercise. Have been eating only 1000 calories of non-processed non-starchy veggies and meat. So I have a deficit of 2500 per day. Scale is pretty much inline with that - Initial loss was much quicker due to water loss but after two weeks it is about 5…
  • http://ajcn.nutrition.org/content/34/4/453.full.pdf This paper also talks about sudden death from very low calorie diet for obese people. Death was from ventricular arrhythmia. I have noticed myself that when I fast for longer time and try to exercise hard - I can feel my heart skipping. It would be great to see progress…
  • http://www.abc.net.au/science/articles/2012/07/24/3549931.htm This guy went from 207kg and lost 125 kg of fat in one year 125kg * 2.2 = 275 lb 275 lb/ 365 = 3/4 lb of fat per day Article does mention that starvation can lead to heart failure - but it doesn't have statistics.
