I stopped eating between Supper and Breakfast , you know no late night lunch and 30+ pounds disappeared

Reminds me of the scene in the movie “Fatso” where Dom de Louise is holding a gun to his brother’s head: “Gimme those keys, gimme those goddam keys!”

There was no magic pill.

She had her body CUT OPEN and CUT APART to lose it.

And some “diet swaps” :)

Listen, food is extremely addicting to many..

And the surgeyr is a wonderful thing if it gives a child a mother or father for a much longer time...or saves that person years of agony or the state 100s of thousands in medical costs.

But let’s call a spade a spade.

She didn’t lose it by swapping some foods for others.

“Get da keys!”

Correct.

Inspiring story, but magic pills are what most Americans need to lose weight. I fly a lot and weigh 160 at this point, but economy seating gives you a chance to see and feel how overweight Americans are at this point - I've read articles stating that the world's history has never seen a nation as fat as Americans are currently. Diets obviously don't work for most people.

You don’t lose weight to get healthy, you get healthy to lose weight.

I told my doctor I wanted to lose 20 lbs of ugly fat. He said,
“No, you need your head.”

> She had her body CUT OPEN and CUT APART to lose it.

Yep, doesn’t seem like the best way to go about it.

What if the only time you eat is night time. No breakfast, no lunch, no dinner.

When i want to lose weight i go vegetarian, smaller portions, 5 meals a day and it melts off. I exercise 5 days a week already but can still put it on. It just works well for my body and im seldom hungry.

I have lost over 60 lbs. in the last year and trimming down even more. I get a lot of cardio and eat a balanced diet.

One can lose some serious weight by fasting or using the warrior diet. With the warrior diet you only eat once a day: not easy by any means, but neither is fasting.

[waterhill]

Basically warrior diet. Once a day. It’s difficult: you can eat whatever and however much you want. After about 4 days your body will tell you what it wants.

A carnivor diet is even more difficult.

It’s all mind over matter.

Was that Dr. Vinnie Boombotz?

Tip your waiter! Try the veal!

I lost 160 pounds of ugly fat in about 2 hours one Tuesday morning. I should have never married her, 13 miserable years for nothing.

running?

I’ve been slowly getting up to running for 10 minutes, then walking, but it was really hard (and boring) at the beginning and it took me months to find it NOT boring
