Ht. 5'7, Wt. 176 - So this is a response to missy about her response to sabina: you have got to be kidding me. I wasn't telling her to eat 5000 calories. I was telling her to eat MORE calories, meaning up to like.. 1500. If you eat less, the moment you eat more you'll gain more weight. you need to stop telling people to eat less then they need to. your advice on weight loss is generally good, but your telling people to basically starve themselves and thats not what you have to do. your metabolism will slow down a ton and you wont be burning as much as you could. your body will hold onto every calorie you eat, even after you start eating more. this means you'll gain weight FAST. 1500 calories a day is a healthy amount. good luck to everyone =)
