    Negative Calorie Foods

    Okay I cannot tell how much merit to put in all the things that I am reading about negative calorie foods. Lets say that I have lunch every day at 12:30 and try to limit myself to 400 calories. I eat the following:

    Bread (160 calories)
    Ham (60 calories)
    Cheese (100 calories)
    Apple (80 calories)

    Assuming that there is NO such thing as a negative calorie food (like an apple), i consumed 400 calories.

    However, if there really are such things as negative calorie foods (like an apple) then I only consumed, we will estimate, 320 calories. This sounds too good to be true!

    Do negative calorie foods, like apples exist? I chart my daily caloric intake, should I go back to each day and deduct 80 calories for the apples I regularly eat?

    What's everyone's opinion?

    Who cares what peoples opinions are.

    "Nope. The 'negative calorie' concept is a myth. Even celery, which is often cited as a negative-calorie food, has 18 calories in two stalks, half from sugar and half from fiber. Your body does burn calories to digest the food, but the total cost doesn't exceed the caloric yield." - Alan Aragon
    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

    Negative calories? Are you ****ting me?

    It never ceases to amaze me how humans seem to be capable of such boundless stupidity.

    Next you're going to tell me about negative oxygen or negative proteins.

    Christ.

    You read wrong.

    Put the celery on a scale. Does it weigh anything? Yes. Problem solved.

    So, you are on a deserted island with nothing but fresh water and a large supply of apples.

    Eat the apples = starve faster?

    What a joke.

    Nothing can have a negative calorie count, however I would imagine there are nutritious foods (i.e. broccoli, spinach) that would take more calories to break down and dispose of than the calories they offer?

    hmmm

    Then that would be considered a negative calorie food. Unfortunately, it doesn't exist.

    why are you blatantly rude in nearly 90% of your posts. Like you have this canny wit that everyone should be exposed to. Get over yourself, I myself am extremely cynical but you are over the top. If you need to constantly bring down people on a forum that makes you the idiot...
