Guest guest Posted September 12, 2005 Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 Hi Aequalsz, I would say this is very *ON* topic if it would help anyone eat less. After all, this guy used this method to permanently lose 40 LBS. A fascinating read at least. Dave > An interesting article sent to me by one (of two) of my National Merit > Scholar offsprings.

Guest guest Posted September 12, 2005 Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 Hi folks: Well ............... yes ................. BUT: The term " a few " is generally reckoned to be " three or four " . So a few tablespoons of oil a few times a day might be considered to be 3.5 x 3.5 = 12.25 tablespoons of oil per day. No wonder he wasn't very hungry at meal times, he was already consuming 1519 calories a day just of oil, even before considering what he ate at meals. He claims to have lost 40 pounds doing this? Then his overload of empty fat calories must have so mucked up his intestines they were no longer capable of absorbing anything. Or is there another explanation?
