People will argue about anything on the internet, just like lying.

Maalus@lemmy.world 1 week agoCool, all of that within a week?
There is no chance there is a visible change from a week of eating salads, no matter how fast your metabolism is.

If you look at yourself regularly and pay attention you can see your body change pretty rapidly. I’ve specifically watched my body bulking up on its own before burning those stored calories to build muscle and there’s a clear cycle of noticing a bit more pudge a few days before I suddenly make a big jump in cycling distance or how much I can lift (and the pudge also goes away at the same time)

Not. In. A. Week.

Yes, in less than a week even! Try it sometime. Its really cool to watch your body adjust and see just how much control you have over your body!
If you don’t regularly exercise and start exercising 5 days a week you will see the changes in your own body after about a week, you might see a small change on the scale after 2 weeks and after 4 weeks someone close to you should be able to see the changes in your body, and after 12 weeks someone you don’t see often should be able to see the changes in your body. Since you see yourself every day and you can feel how your body feels you can see the change very quickly

You aren’t going to “slim down” in a week no matter what you do. Read the freaking post too instead of jumping in with “excercise 5 times a week”. They said “I moved to Japan, ate better and walked around for a week and I got noticeably slimmer”. That’s not a true statement, simple as.

If you stop eating for a week you can lose a cool 7kg of a lot more than just water mass. Get off your high (uninformed) horse
Maalus@lemmy.world 1 week ago
Read the original post ffs. They said “i ate better and walked a bunch”. Not “starved myself for a week”.

I can lose 10lbs in 3 days of i quit drinking beer. 10 lbs is definitely noticeable. It’s definitely not a real change, just not being super bloated, but noticeable.

An average male adult will burn round about 2000kcal/day, which comes down to 1kg of fat per week (that’s 2.2 lbs in freedom units). To burn through 10 punds in three days, you’d have to finish an Ironman every day. And all that’s assuming that your calorie intake is zero, nada, niente. So if you’re loosing 10 pounds in three days, you are either an exceptional athlete or you just peeing a lot. That’s also the problem with all these “loose 10kg in 2 weeks” diets: What you’re loosing is water, not fat. And as soon as you end the diet it’s a matter of days to regain that weight .

That’s exactly what i said, just not like an asshole. And i am a pretty consistent athlete. GFY! Happy new year!

I’m not sure where exactly I said something assholy. If I did, I’m sorry as that was not my intention. GFY and a happy new year to you too, whatever that means.

You’re drinking over 11k calories a day in beer?
Trainguyrom@reddthat.com 1 week ago
You realize the human body contains more than just fat right?
chemicalprophet@lemm.ee 1 week ago
These fucking guys? Amirite? Sheesh…
Sciaphobia@lemm.ee 1 week ago
I am, yes. What are you suggesting he’d be losing instead? Water weight? If it’s that, you can lose that without ceasing drinking beer at all. It seemed to me that the implication was the fella could lose 10 pounds that would stay off by stopping alcohol consumption, which water weight would not.
Is there something else l am missing?
Zeppo@sh.itjust.works 1 week ago
Yeah
chemicalprophet@lemm.ee 1 week ago
It’s a bet I’ve won several times. Feeling like you have too much money?
Sciaphobia@lemm.ee 1 week ago
I don’t understand what you’re asking me.
