  1. @Latoija - you lost fat AND muscle AND lean body mass AND body fluids. No way to get around that (other than liposuction), even if you worked out. w/weights while fasting. ...just the facts of weightloss

  2. @LTPottenger This is a complete fantasy. If you honestly believe this - what/who, e.g. what scientific study supports this, please?

  3. @cochetavulpita7925  yah? That's not possible. Complete myth. Don't know where you heard/read this b.s., but please learn to do your own due diligence before believing everything you hear or read (probably on Internet)

  4. @wdcornwell  you are correct in your guarantee, here,. It's just basic physics (& biology). DOUBT that that OP would be inclined to believe you, though.

  5. ​​​ jamieandrick6541  I see this type of fantasy claim all the time. Doubt you'll get the type of answer (if any) that might explain such a miracle😇 I think there may be a generalized naivete amongst folks, that all the weight coming off is fat. Unless they are well-versed in the subject of weightloss, people don't seem to realize that about a quarter of the weight they've lost along with fat tissue, is muscle. Statistically, about 25% of the weight coming off will be muscle - especially with an extreme loss via fasting. So...in this case, with a loss of 36 lbs - about 9# of that loss would have been muscle tissue😉

  7. @andrewbellinger6120  thanks for being the voice of reason here. You are obviously knowledgeable about this aspect of biology. ...now, how about that commentator in this space that wrote - as a fact, btw - that weightloss from dieting loses muscle, while weightloss from fasting not only doesn't include muscle, but builds muscle also!-??🥴

  8. ​​​ jamieandrick6541  Yah, ran into a real issue with this in trying to get a a YT influencer (beauty advisor, make-up/skin care & such) to stop advising her subs that they too could lose pure fat by following what she was doing to lose weight. So, she had discovered that creating a caloric deficit by tracking her macros she could lose the weight. So far so good... that method does work, but she kept saying that she lost fat, not muscle. Terribly misleading😮 Apparently, she just assumed it was 'all fat' bc she was working out while practicing what amounted to a high protein, low carb calorie deficit diet. And, her entire metric was the scale - a home impedance scale which readings' she took as Gospel. I pointed out that those can be highly misleading, and are calibrated to 'fudge' opportunistically to please the person who thinks they are getting an accurate reading about the nature of their weightloss. Knowing what I (think) I know, haha😅, about weightloss, I pointed out to her that statistically speaking all of the weight she lost, as reflected on her scale, was NOT pure fat - about 1/4 of that loss was muscle - and that she needed to stop misleading her subs, who were following her every move thinking they'd be losing pure fat. Well, then...I was a horrible person to be picking on her like that! She was only trying to help her viewers lose weight, and WHY was I trying to stop her from helping people! And further, she DID lose pure fat, no muscle😂, etc. I asked if she did a dexa scan to see where the loss actually was, and you'd have thought I'd asked if she'd flown to the moon & back😅 Anyhow, it didn't end well, imo. Yes, she did lose the weight, but looked -at least to me, afterward - a bit gaunt in the face and, imo, yes she had lost muscle right along with fat, despite her workouts, and her insistence that it was pure fat😅 She finally got off the 'fat loss' gambit (instructing her viewers 'how to') - and went back to advising skincare/make-up. But, sadly, she never once corrected her statements that she had lost pure fat.🙄
