I agree losing weight slowly is best if you're going to try.

But losing weight slowly is starving. Slowly.

Taking in fewer calories than you need IS, by definition, STARVING. Eventually, no matter how slowly you do it, it would, if continued forever, kill you.

Your fat is burning because you aren't eating enough food to maintain yourself. Not having enough food to maintain yourself is starving.

Which doesn't mean there aren't good reasons to do such a thing (bodies are complicated, as is health, and people can make their own choices), but that's what it is, no matter how you try to guild it.

And it almost never works in the long run if your goal was permanent weight loss. And if your body is in a place where its going to its fat reserves, then yes, no matter how gently you are doing it, your body is panicking, and it can't tell that you chose to do this. And it perceives the situation as one of starvation, and it will respond accordingly.

Wow. She just said cutting down your intake but still eating a healthy amount (read: eating what you need). Are you just that fucking stupid or being deliberately obtuse? And you wonder why even those of us who are overweight think you're full of it.

If you're taking in fewer calories than you are using, your body can't tell you are eating what you need. It will perceive the situation as a starvation one. It can't tell the difference between choosing to eat less and not being able to eat more because of circumstance. It evolved to survive the latter.

It's really not that complicated.

And you keep insisting that's a bad thing for some reason, and will cause you horrible suffering. Probably because you're the size of a beached whale, I'd guess. As long as you eat a healthy amount (and composition) of calories, a little temporary "starvation" to drop some weight is not going to hurt you. It'll certainly help you more than that extra bag of pork rinds will.

"Which doesn't mean there aren't good reasons to do such a thing (bodies are complicated, as is health, and people can make their own choices)"

Your reading comprehension is abysmal.

And we've gotten to the ad hominem section of the thread! Congratulations everyone.



And I'm not the size of a beached whale (real original there, roger) but I also don't consider that be a worthwhile insult, because I don't think there's a size at which people suddenly lose their right to be respected as a human being. Fancy that.

[(Anonymous)]

Then why couch it in such cautionary, defeatist language, hmm? If there are "good reasons" to do it, then why are you actively discouraging people from doing so?

I think the size at which your ego could rightly consume a small republic is the point at which you are no longer worthy of being respected as a human being. You passed that point long ago. Have a nice day!
