in Flat Belly Diet on Natural Bodybuilding with Marc David
My acheivement would not have been possible had I listened to people when they belittled my efforts. That is the only reason I responded with my numbers.
The point is that if it takes a loss, regardless of if it is fat or water, to inspire a person to keep with whatever program they have chosen then no one should say anything to lessen their effort.
Water is weight. If I get on my scale it doesn't tell me I weigh so much in water and so much in fat. It just gives me a number and a person who is trying to lose weight is happy to see that number go down...regardless of if it is a water loss or a fat loss.

So you are ridiculous as well as unmotivational?
I clearly was talking about water vs. fat loss and you come up with a childish response like cutting off a limb? I certainly hope you aren't a trainer because with idiotic comments like that your clients will probably be leaving you in droves.
What I said was why bring people down for trying? If it takes a 5lb loss of water to motivate someone why would ANYONE want to point out that their efforts and results were somehow less than great!
How about telling people that they are doing a great job and providing motivation to continue rather than telling them that what they have worked for is just going to come back and they have wasted their time.
Your thought process sounds like it is coming from a person who has never had a weight problem and so you don't understand the insane amount of negative thoughts that are constantly in a persons head. I was over 250lbs at one time. Pretty FAT for a 5'6" woman. I tried everything and whenever I had a small success inevitably there would be that person...such as yourself, that would say something like "It's just water" or "You've got a lot more to go" or something thoughtless and belittling like that. All it does, for many people, is put the seed of doubt in a persons mind. For a person who isn't strong willed that might be all it takes to send them back to the Twinkies. You think "hey, they are right. It's just water and I have so much to lose I don't think I can do it." Where if they heard "great job" or "Keep up the good work" it might help push the self destructive thought out and help them to keep going.
But no...you would be the type to just tell them "Hey, you would lose the weight faster if you just cut off a leg." That's there I say "You are a DUMB ASS" and should not be allowed anywhere near anyone who it trying their hardest to do something that it probaly the hardest thing they have ever had to do.
By the way...staying away from people like you is what allowed me to lose 100+lbs and keep it off for 20 years. Am I patting myself on the back? YOU BET YOUR ASS I AM. GOOD JOB ME!! and GOOD JOB to anyone else who is trying to do one of the most difficult things EVER!!

"nasty blubber" ? Nice comment. Way to make people feel even a tiny bit OK with themselves.
I have always had an issue with people who, when you say "I feel great. I just started a new diet and have lost 5 lbs." the response is almost always "Well, that's probably only water weight."
THANKS FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT!!! Dumb Ass. I don't know about you "professionals" but my scale at home doesn't separate fat from water from anything else. When I get on the scale and it gives me a number guess what? THAT IS WHAT I WEIGH. It can be made up of whatever the hell it wants to be made up from...I DON'T CARE. Normal people think that weight is weight and if I lose 5lbs I REALLY DON"T CARE WHAT IT WAS MADE FROM!!! 5lbs gone is 5 lbs gone. Stop trying to make people feel as if their efforts are somehow not good enough because they "ONLY LOST WATER WEIGHT"
A more supportive response would be "Great! Congratulations! Keep up the great work" Keep the negative responses, designed to only keep fat people fat and feeling bad about themselves, TO YOURSELF!!
If this "diet" helps even one person then it was worth it....don't you think?
