I've lost 8 pounds since last Wednesday

Don't you mean two pounds of stool this morning?

 

Whatever trips your trigger!

 

Exactly! One thing that is very important is to eat something if you feel hungry. IF not your body goes into starvation mode and burns muscle instead of fat. You should never go more than 6 hours in between meals or snacks. Also, drinking lots of water is important to preventing gall bladder, kidney, and liver damage. The book also recommends you take a vitamin supplement (I am) and small amounts of fiber (I also am). If not you could experience muscle cramps and constipation. I wouldn't recommend somebody try this unless you read the book or website.

 

Meat and water.

Dat's what we 'sposed to eat yo.

 

the book doesn't do a good job of explaining where the bulk of the weight you are initially losing comes from. It is coming from muscle glycogen...which are basically carbs stored in your muscles. each gram of glycogen has 4 grams of water with it...so when your muscle uses the glycogen (which it will before fat) it takes that water with it....which is how you get 10 pounds lost in week and things like that. ...if you workout it is therefore a lot easier to get dehydrated...so make sure you drink your water. your weight loss will slow down after the glycogen is gone but it will be all fat, sounds like you are past that point now anyways.

 

The Atkins diet is great if you don't get tired of the restrictions. If you can believe it, I lost 15 pounds in about 2 months on Atkins, but I had trouble eating a variety of foods. Just seemed like nothing appealed to me after a while.

However, I got into the habit of eating only 3 times a day, which is what I recently have started up again. I'm down 5 pounds from about 2 weeks ago.

 

I've lost 40 since April on the FedEx workout plan: Eat whatever you want and bust your ass for 5 hours a night and the best part - make money at the same time! I am seriously thinking about going full time and getting the most I can out of it.

 

I was looking at your picture on the new TBR wallpaper and I know a way you could lose 50 pounds and get 100% better looking. Yup, the guillotine.

 

damn you sly.

while I was reading this I got a pop up add for diet pills.

Now we know how you really done it...

Ever since that doctor botched your circumcision you have been obsessed with guillotines.
