An experiment

Hi all



I am about to try an experiment.
I will try to loose 4 kilos in 6 days.



I'll come back the 23rd and say how I did.

Unhealthy, wrong and lame

do it the right way and it should not come back

most quick weight diets don't keep off the weight.

I can do that too, only I can do it in about 30 seconds. It's called taking a shit.

who said anything about diets?
I am talking excessive excersize.

This is very achieveable. I've done this. The secret is high intensity cardio on an empty stomach immediately upon waking up in the morning for at least 30 minutes. I know that sounds harsh and only crazy people like myself and other such crazy people will go to such extremes but if you want it bad enough, you will do whatever it takes. Good luck!

But I'm of the opinion that it is easier to lose weight in decent amounts. I lost a pound a week for almost a year and I've kept it off, see I'm more concerned about you keeping the weight off. Yes excessive exercise does it but if you do it right, you can keep it off. I mean lots of people want to lose weight but I'm more of the opinion that changing your diet with exercise can help you lose it. Yes you are trying an experiment, I view it as lame because I know people who have done the same thing, but never kept the weight off. I just think that dropping 8-10 pounds in a week (if you are not sick) is unreasonable.

Gonna agree with toronto on this one... losing 9 lbs in < 1 wk is in general unhealthy. Impossible? Certainly not. Special forces troops in training, who are already at near-ideal weight at the start, do this frequently. Unless you're willing to take that kind of a burden, I recommend not doing this...

I dunno, my dad has lost 30 pounds in 6 months on his diet. He eats a bowl of cereal for 2 of his meals and usually for dinner he eats anything and as much of it that he wants.

He lost 8 pounds in 2 weeks when he begin. I'd say that's close to a "quick weight" diet.

not that hard. just take ex-lax and metamucil and crap your pants 4 times a day


Posted by mentalbarter on Jun-17-2004 09:40:

yeah crash diets are bad


Posted by MarathonMan on Jun-17-2004 15:17:

^^^^ What he said! Because of it you'll put the weight you lost back on just as quickly!


Posted by Spad on Jun-17-2004 18:19:

I don't think he said anything about not wanting to put it back on again. He said he was going to try and lose 4 kilos in 6 days.

I once tried to fit 20 rich tea in my mouth, I never intended to leave them there though.

Why do you want to loose 4 kilos of Coke? or is that code for selling it on the street?


Posted by diffusion on Jun-22-2004 08:00:

The 22rd of June is here, and I actually couldn't wait. Here's how it went.


First of all some background.
After 3-4 weeks of hard studying for several exams, and only sporadic
visits to the gym, something happened. For the fun of it I tried a friend
of mine's bathroom weight and discovered that I weighted 92kgs!
That's 4kg more than last time, and 6kgs away from my ideal weight.
I usually work out 5 times a week, so this kind of says what happens
if you break up with your routine.

Anyways, I know that a person's fitness level can be displayed
with a simple function:
y=Ec+Es+F

Ec = Cardiovascular exercise
Es = Strength exercise
F = Food intake

Realising this, I set up an instrumental millitary style workout programme which I followed every day....:



Each day consisted of:
40 minutes walking to a distant busstop(to go to uni), instead of using the stop outside my appartment building.
60 minutes of running (aproximately 12 kilometres)
60 minutes of weightlifting (at the gym)
40 minutes walking home again from the bus late at night from that distant busstop.

Breakfast : One 425gram can of tuna (500 calories and plenty of proteins) (with some black pepper on it actually tastes quite good!)
Lunch : One pack of noodles (381 calories)
Dinner after workout: One and a half pack of noodles (580 calories)
Last meal : One pack of noodles (381 calories)

No food after 20.00, just energy snacks(below).
Energy snacks : One orange and 3 carrots
Because the energy snacks was insufficient in holding my blood sugar at
good levels, I allowed myself to drink several 300ml cups of coffee acompanied with 1/2 litre portions of water.
This was in order to keep my brain in action whilist studying, and it worked.

This is about a 2000calorie diet. Which is substantially lower than my previous levels.


And guess what: IT WORKED!
The net result of this was that my weight today the 22rd of June is 88kgs.
This means that I lost 4kgs from originally weighing 92kgs!



Problems I had during this programme(cons):
-------------------------------------------
Hunger - REAL Hunger, however a good deal of willpower helped me through all of that
Sleep deprivation - I slept really bad, probably because I always went to bed hungry as a wolf
Blisters on my feet - those 12k's were hard on me
Sore hips - usually went away after one day of restoring...


Pros:
------------------
Healthy bodyweight
Seriously good shape
Proved my point.


Why this weight will last:
This programme has given my fitnesscurve a sound shift to the right (I'm studying economics,
diagrams is all I think about nowadays I guess I could represent it using vectors but I won't go all scientific on your ass ).
I will of course continue to pursue such a program 5 days a week.
Because I do not plan on going back to previous eating habits,
my original weight will not come back.


Why did I do this?
Because I know for a fact what I have learnt the hard way:
That chicks dig good looking guys. I am going home tomorrow (from Australia to Norway) for a vacation,
and there will be plentiful of beachparties, hence my need to attempt to look good



I did it, I lost 4kgs in 5 days.
Mission acomplished!

You could always, you know, cut off a limb or something. Guaranteed to keep the weight off too.
