Do you think your body was really able to handle that activity at your size while expending only 2000 calories a day?

You, as well as everyone on this thread, full-well know that it wasn't. You...

What do you eat on the 7th day and why are you eating the same meals every day?

How can that skin be loose when it is filled with fat? I wouldn't give it another thought until you are at a single digit body fat percentage (something you'd be glad to work towards if you really...

Phenomenal! Rep'd.

How are you so lean?

But of course. If not in that post, I have addressed that somewhere in this thread. Not only that, your BMR can change from day to day.

By the way, I don't like "BMR"; I prefer "RMR" for a true...

"12.5 miles 2.5mph 5%grade uphill on the treadmill"

You do 5 hours of cardio a day? Why?

Your BMR is basically how many calories they could put through the feeding tubes without changing your weight in either direction.

If, all of the sudden, I found myself not changing in weight AT...

People come on here after losing 10lbs, swearing up and down that they've wrecked their metabolism. The harm it has done is the extent to which it has diverted people's focus from refining their...

So you're willing to say the OP damaged their metabolism by eating 1100 calories a day for 5 weeks as a non-lean 16yo, 5 foot female?

What does this even mean?

I hear you on struggling to get the necessary fat intake; it is hard for me to go over .3g/lb.

That's true, Electricheadd! I wonder how much of it is due to the amount lost and how much is due to the rate at which it's lost; if it's the former, it was unavoidable -- but if it's the former, and...

I looked it up and "A physical or emotional shock. Many people experience a general thinning of hair several months after a physical or emotional shock. Examples include sudden or excessive weight...

Impressive. I literally don't know if I could physically drink a gallon of milk a day, no matter how appealing it is to my taste buds.

Rep'd.

Very interesting; didn't know that. But my gains stopped months ago -- I am weaker in every way compared to a few months ago.

You'd be better off eating whatever you want for 2000 calories instead of such a highly controlled diet, especially since you weren't able to stick to that diet 100% -- given the fact that you only...
