I'm going to have to post a bit now, as I'll be away from the computer as I take a 3 mile walk home. Again, according to webmd, ketones are *also* what happens when we burn fat.

Or even, Orges with Divine Rank 0? Edit: I actually looked at Paragon. Its insane.

desperate housewives. I don't even like that I watch it -- but I do like watching it. Oh, and the complete rule-absurdity of HackMaster. The concept of the game really seems to be "Why have one rule when you can have two contradicting ones?"

I sure didn't. According to webmd ... "Ketones are often found in a person who has not eaten (fasts) for 18 hours or longer." Which I was doing for over a week. I wasn't doing it for the weight loss, that was a nice side effect. Also, I didn't smell bad, so I don't think I was in ketosis. If...

Given my supreme and more or less voluntary poverty for the next couple years (graduate school ... in philosophy), I can't assure you that I'll buy it. But I'll certainly go to the FLGS and read through it. If I love it -- or even just dig it --, I'll suggest my friends buy it. I like the...

fusangite, let me agree with Pbartender that that is the awesomeest reason I've ever heard to use atkins. I've never had "willpower over food", and my currently diet doesn't force me to have it. The no food for a week thing I could *not* have done if I hadn't built up to it -- by simply...

Then do it! You don't necessarily need the sanction of Joss to play in the world. Take some liberties and have fun with something as close to it as you want. My friend and I were going to do this a few months back. We each decided individually that it was a perfect RPG. There were enough...

Why not? It woudn't be the first time this thread has been hijacked. To the others: Yeah, ten pounds in a week is more than is thought to be healthy. I know. I look at myself now compared ot then and can tell you with a fairly reasonable degree of certainty that it was fat. It sure wasn't water...

What it does do is raise the rational subjective lillihood that such a thing is true. The current best model for scientific discovery making is Bayes Theorem, which states: P (H | E & B) = P(E|H) * P(H | B) / P(E|B) ... if i recall correctly, which I should. What that says is that our...

OK, so i weighed myself. In the past week, I didn't lose 3 pounds. No where near. I lost ten. In seven days -- friday to friday. That's a lot. Do I still sound crazy and as if I am of the Flat Earthers?

I'm sure I'm the only one doing the math on this one ... 40 rods is an eighth of a mile 1 hogshead is about 63 gallons. So grampa Simpson is getting one mile per 504 gallons. I'll refrain from political comment. Edit: and with that, I'm gone for the night.

or you cna google it. "20 stone to pounds". Google is teh awesomest.

Actually ... http://www.azcentral.com/health/diet/articles/1029health-lowcal29-ON.html It appears that, in lab animals at least, ultra-low calorie diets extend life.

Maybe, but it went aware. I lost the hyper-awareness of my kidneys. Besides, everything I've read from people who have done this diet has been positive. There's even supposed to be a little disorientation as the waste is getting filled out. Its going to be weird tonight, to eat something other...

I coudn't find a tea, but I've got fiber laxative pills. On about the third day, I could distinctly feel my kidneys. It was bizarre. I'm not altogether sure what that was about.

It suggests you not be. And I think everybody here would agree you not be. But even if you're just eatning normal foods you're going to accumulate toxins. Sure, if you eat a lot of detox foods you'll have a lot less toxins (imagine that), and reducing such things is almost always good for you...

Again with the arrogance. There's been a lot of that in this thread. I really dislike the assumption that I havn't looked into things, that I've done this without research, and that I'm dumb. The arrogance is probably my fault -- I think Torm and I both have been telling people more than they...

The Grade B Maple Syrup (as opposed to Grade A, or the sugar-based maple-flavored syrups) provides a bunch of nutrients. And its the primary source of calories. It is effectively boiled tree sap, with very little in the way of processing. Instead of surviving on animal meat and blood, now I'm...

Fine, Torm. Just for you. For the past nine days, I've been doing what's called "Master Cleanser". In effect, it is an ultra-low calorie diet. It consists of drinking lemonade -- of a very particular sort. The lemonade is made of: fresh lemon juice (obviously), Grade B Maple Syrup, cayenne...

Eh, most of the stuff he mentioned is fairly bad for us. Of course, I do still eat whatever I want. To some degree, I've changed what I want. But still, I love the pizza. and milk. and cookies, to some degree. Point is, it isn't gimicky to avoid the foods he's mentioned. Breads, particuarly...
