Guest guest Posted September 6, 2002 Report Share Posted September 6, 2002 Quantie: sorry but I don't think you qualify as a member of that elite group. Your weight is much too high and from your picture, you're nowhere near " concentration camp thin " . According to the numbers bandied about, the extreme guys weight between 115- into the 120's for about a six foot tall male. So if you want to join that group, you'd have to lose about 20 pounds! In that case, I doubt you could continue lifting the way you are now. So congratulations on finding that " sweet spot " . BTW I think you look great! And thanks for the picture.

Guest guest Posted September 6, 2002 Report Share Posted September 6, 2002 Actually, my caloric intake is lower than that of pretty much all the concentration campers, including McGlothin, who is now down to around 1600 cals/day according to the ABC show. My average for the past 5 yrs or so is definitely less than 1600. I guess it depends on how you measure extremism, whether its by caloric level, relative reduction to ad lib intake, or weight and skeletal appearance. Some people look fairly skeletal even eating ad lib, so I think appearance can be a tricky criterion. > -----Original Message----- > From: Francesca Skelton [mailto:fskelton@...] > Sent: Friday, September 06, 2002 8:51 AM > > Subject: Re: [ ] Quantie's " extremism " > > > Quantie: sorry but I don't think you qualify as a member of > that elite > group.

Guest guest Posted September 6, 2002 Report Share Posted September 6, 2002 Quantie, Doesn't appear you are an extremist even at 1600 cal/day since you are not experiencing any bad side effects. I think being an extremist (again I am disliking that term just like I dislike moderate) if it starts to adversely effect your body hwich common sense tells me cannot be condusive of a log and happy life.
