If you were eating 2.75 pounds of food and dropped one meal that weighed
one pound, you would achieve the same results. Except that you would not
have lost weight so drastically and placed yourself in an inevitable
rebound, return to or past original weight, for which you are now most
assuredly doomed.

``Same results, except not.'' Bullshit equivocation, combined with
blind guessing.

Pitiful imbecile, how do you know 16.6 pounds is drastic? It depends on the
total adiposity.

For someone carrying 20 pounds of body fat, it would be drastic (pretty much
regardless of how long it took, really).

For someone carrying 70 pounds, it wouldn't be drastic to lose 16.6 pounds
in 7 weeks.

There is empirical evidence that maximum amount of body fat that can be shed by
means of a dietary deficit, without loss of lean mass (which qualifies
as a good definition of non-drastic loss) is a fraction of the total adiposity.

This fraction is about 0.8% per day, give or take. (Source: this can be derived
from the results stated in the paper ``A limit on the energy transfer rate from
the human fat store in hypophagia'').

From this we can easily calculate the percentage over 49 days:

1 - (1 - .008)^49 = 0.325

(Note: ^ represents exponentiation).

I.e. over 7 weeks, you can safely lose about 33% of your body fat. If you are
carrying 48 pounds of it, then this is 16. The more fat you have in excess of
48 pounds, the easier and safer it is to lose 16 pounds over 7 weeks.

Correct. The problem is that so few, less than 3% over time remain on
the diet. Rebound is practically inevitable by conclusion.

Answers are simple.

No one gains weight, everyone reaches optimal weight by eating 2PD or
less. Considering that I have extensive experience with training and
athletes in traning, and common folk, I speak from those realities.

Hmmm ..... so will two identical twins one eating 2PD of peanut butter and
the other eating 2PD of celery result in the same weight of the two even
though there is a big difference of calories consumed ..... they both have
the same activity level so the only variable is the what they eat .... would
seem that the one eating two pounds of peanut butter which has more calories
than the two pounds of celery would end up with a much higher weight.

Perhaps you could inform us of just what is your "extensive experience" ?

This is a strawman argument against the two pound diet.

Chung may be a loon, but the idea has merit.

Of course the specific mass of the food doesn't matter; that is,
there is nothing magic about two pounds.

The point is that mass of food can be used as an estimate of intake and
a control parameter, and that there may be advantages to doing it that
way---advantages such as the diet is as simple as possible, while still
being tied to closed-loop parameter control.

Of course, if you drastically vary the average caloric density of the food,
then you are violating the spirit of the idea, right? I.e. basically cheating.

Can you name any reasonable self-administered diet system in which cheating is
absolutely impossible?

Think about this: many people don't even think twice about using their body
mass as an estimate of how fat they are, and as a feedback parameter for
tracking progress. If body mass can be used a feedback parameter, why can't
food mass be used as the corresponding control parameter?

If you're measuring body mass on the feedback side, rather than precise
compartmentalized body composition, does it even make sense to compute precise
calories on the control side?

> the same activity level so the only variable is the what they eat .... would
> seem that the one eating two pounds of peanut butter which has more calories
> than the two pounds of celery would end up with a much higher weight.

Still, fact is, two pounds does impose an upper bound. The most calorie-dense
foods are fats, at 9 kcal/g. So the most energy you can get from 900 grams
of food is 8100 kcal.

So work with me for a second: if you use mass to estimate energy intake, you do
in fact have a parameter which establishes an upper bound on energy intake.
The energy intake cannot exceed around nine times multiplied by the mass in
grams, right? I.e. this is actually a sanely behaved parameter. Plug
it into a control loop and it should work. You may find that by eating 907 g
of peanut butter per day, you are not losing weight, or even gaining. I.e. for
the value of the control parameter being 907, you find that the feedback
parameter is not moving in a favorable direction. So try a lower value, like
750 g, et cetera. Eventually, you will discover the values of the control
parameter that change the direction of the feedback parameter.

I don't see any reason to disbelieve that people can do well on two pounds of a
variety of normal food with some sane average caloric density that is nowhere
near 9. Suppose your food has an average density of 2.0 kcal/g. Thus 907
grams of it is 1814 kcal. That's a decent weight loss energy intake for an
adult male. A caloric density of 2.0 kcal/g isn't particularly low, nor is it
particularly high. It's quite representative of normal food.

Chung isn't really saying anything other than: eat a reasonable amount of
normal food. That's not enough to qualify him as sane, or even intelligent, of
course.

But remember the message from 1980's seatbelt education?

``You can learn a lot from a dummy''.

Of course if you eat less food you will lose weight .... makes no difference
whether you reduce the number of calories or the sizes of the portions. A
successful and easy diet is simple to eat 3/4 or 2/3 or 1/2 of the usual
portion sizes that you normally eat. The problem with long term success is
that people go back to the calories or portion sizes they ate before and gain
the weight back.

This is utter nonsense! I am eating more calories on South Beach than when I
was calorie counting, therefore, my portions are much larger. All calories are
not equal and do not work the same way in all bodies. For obese people with
hyperinsulinism, there is no doubt that too many refined carbs, whether eaten
in small or large portions, will ultimately retain fat and perpetuate the
hyperinsulin cycle in which the body tries to process a carb barrage at every
meal. The size of adipose tissue and fat cells brings carb processing to a near
standstill, which is why anyone with an abdominal protrusion and elevated
fasting glucose levels can benefit from reducing or eliminating most refined
carbs.

My comments were in regards to diets based on reducing the calories through

None of these diets have high long term success rates because people do not
follow them long term and go back to their old eating habits. Each of these
diets also have their long term success stories in those who can maintain

The fact that there are so many different diets, often means one is not

This happens because people really want to be eating as they always have. The
most effective diet is therefore the closest to their old eating habits, either
in terms of food type or portion size. Someone terrified of giving up most
carbs might opt for a calory counting diet where they can still have carbs, but
in smaller portions. Another might like meat so much that they especially prize
a diet like Atkins or South Beach that encourages meat consumption without
portion limitations.

Ultimately, the best diet for each individual strikes a balance between what
they like to eat and what their bodies need. It's just that simple. For big
eaters, no flavor of a calory counting diet will work because they'll always
feel hungry. For carb cravers, a calory counting diet similarly will not work
because they can never eat enough carbs to satisfy their cravings. For people
who love fatty foods, South Beach will please them much less than Atkins.

The problem with the diet industry is that it tends to appeal to people's sense
of healthy eating and moralizing sermons about obesity's social ills rather
than focus on what people actually enjoy eating. Part of the reason that people
gorge on low fat foods is that in order to reduce fat, flavor is sacrified. So,
they keep chasing down a flavor experience that will never come.

Well said.

Also, if you can increase your activity to a level you can maintain, that can
help.

Also, it seems if you try to lose too much weight too fast the body responds
by lowering the metabolic rate which makes it harder to lose weight.

Everything in moderation, even moderation, because in some rare occasions the
fate of the world may depend on having that piece of cake and that is the
least anyone can do for their fellow mankind ;-)

A cheat which in both my experience and Chung's that simply does not
work in any real life situation. However, a phool who is out to disprove

again, this is not a real world situation either.

I have experienced highly trained, endurance and anaerobic athletes who
have performed to par, who have controlled their weight by the 2PD.

I have also experienced athletes who have exceeded their weight, on
purpose, (offensive tackles for one)by purposefully choosing to weigh
out 3 or more pounds of food daily.

The charges of insanity, etc come from those who wish to disparage the
2PD for whatever self-enabling agendas.

In truth, as you have pointed out, the diet will work and the detractors
come off as drooling morons with childlike tantrums.

Paraphrasing Samuel Johnson's (no relation) famous quote:

Using ad hominem attacks is the last refuge of a scoundrel.

I guess it makes some feel stronger and superior to make ad hominem
attacks. What they fail to realize is that those attacks reflect on

pointing it out. A simple answer or ignoring it is best.

The industry follow on the heels of a massive campaign, one that has
been going on for decades, that pushes the concepts of fullness,
satiation and ridiculous portion sizes. This has been confused with
"healthy", eat what is on your plate, don't waste, etc etc, anyone over
the age of 40 knows the mantra explicitly.

This is no defence of the industry, rather a condemnation. Where else
can you get the catastrophic, pandemic rates of illness from
overconsumption (failed diets born to failure as they are composed) and
claim "success"?

But, exactly as predicted, you followed up to me today. So your *plonk* was

The best diet comprises of ones favorite foods so that there is more
joy in eating and ever increasing hunger, which indicates ever
increasing health.

The healthiest people in the world are the hungriest people in the
world.

For healthier (hungrier) people, the food scale is to eating as the
speedometer is to driving.

The food scale helps to keep those of us with high-performance bodies
(no VAT) from overeating (eating more than 32 ounces) just as the

The setting of the cruise control at the correct speed is not possible
without a speedometer.

What is required to receive a cure for the delusion that "hunger is
starvation" is saying "wonderfully hungry" whenever greeted by others

Here is the testimony of the former head of the FDA, an obviously
intelligent, well informed man who can avail himself of any and all
science.

He could not understand why he was unable to maintain a constant,
healthy weight.

http://tinyurl.com/cd5rty

In a more recent interview, Bill Mahrer had Kressler on for 15 minutes
and the gist of that discussion was the constant barrage by the food and
diet industries (Kessler tells that all mainstream diets are doomed to
fail) the food industry to produce overconsumption, the diet to feed off
of it. Both industries accomplish the same thing...overconsumption.

The problem is greater than our ability to solve.

Which circles us back to the 2PD. It solves the overconsumption problem
and why is that? Because the 2PD is borne from a place which has the
power to solve complex, human problems.

I, like Kessler, struggled for years with trying to understand why I
continually gained small amounts of weight. I ate no breakfast, little
lunch and had large dinners. I was very active, working 70-80 hours per
week on my strength training gym floors, lifting, racking, tons of iron
plates and chrome Olympic bars daily. Yet, I gained weight.

After we met, I weighed for the first time my daily food intake.
Goshogolly, it was 2.5+ pounds on the average.

I dropped to just under 2 pounds per day, never once looking at what I
ate, weight dropped off at the rate of 1/2 to 1 pound per week.

Simple.

Only GOD is able to cure our delusion that "hunger is starvation."

HE does require that we use the 2PD-OMER Approach before HE operates
on our heart of hearts to cut out the world's ancient lie that "hunger
is starvation."

The world first started using this lie to mess people up back in the
time of Jacob and Essau (Genesis 25:32).

It is not by chance but by GOD that the verse number is 32 to remind
us about the 32 ounces being the optimal amount of daily food intake.

The Holy Spirit is the Source of the 2PD-OMER Approach.

Hungrier is healthier :-)

Being hungrier is wonderful.

Why was the turkey on the dinner table not hungry?

Because it was both dead and stuffed.

Therefore, not being hungry is terrible.

What exactly did that 2 lbs consist of? Meat? Cereals? Lettuce or cheese?
2 lbs of cheese will have a lot more calories than 2 lbs of lean broiled
meat or broccoli and string beans.

So you're saying that 2 lbs is what a woman 5'2" tall and a man 6'2" tall
should eat? No adjustment for physical activity, height, sex or age? What
do you suggest the 2 lbs consist of? Baked fish or boiled broccoli? French
Fries? Lettuce and celery?

Where did this religious fanatic Andrew get this magic 2 lb diet of unnamed
foods from anyway? How could a man of, say 5'8", or a woman of 5'5" lose
weight if they ate 1 lb of cheese and 1 lbs of steak a day? Look at the
calories involved.

Having your stomach rumble and suffering a headache from hunger hardly
sounds like a blessing to me. It's very distracting if one has to work for a
living. It's also hard to fall asleep with a burning, churning, rumbling
stomach.

Have you noticed that most of the individuals involved in world
government shenanigans as propaganda are Irish?

Here's a classic: "The United Nations has accordingly retracted claims
over one of the biggest controversies in the Gaza war, admitting that an
Israeli mortar attack on 6 January 2009 which killed 43 people did not
hit a school run by the UN agency."

When asked what I thought about the swine flu, I reminded my questioner
that I have a perspective of having known the names of the first 6 HIV
infections within the State of Victoria.

That while nations must test their readiness and preparedness for health
exigency, and I applaud them for whipping this latest up into a fever.

When do you think they start apologizing for what wasn't done for HIV?

And you support this diet because........?

Let me guess. You were eating vast amounts of food, many pounds a day before
you ran into Chung. Now you carry a scale with you 24/7 and make sure you
don't eat more than 2 lbs of burgers and fries and chips and dips each day.
Right?

Why do you refuse to answer the question of how 2 lbs would work for a 6'2"
man as well as a 5'2" woman and for those doing manual labor as well as
those bedridden.

Because there is no way legitimate way to answer the question because the
idea that is would work the same is absurd and better to be evasive and hurl
personal insults.

MU tends to parrot Chung when it comes to the 2PD

I'm wrong? Then who weighs the food for you? How many lbs of food were you
eating a day before you started to weight everything you ate?

Then why don't you answer the questions? You can start with how many
calories a day are in the 2 lbs a day diet. Then explain how what works for
a 6'2" laborer also works for a 5'2" inactive woman.

Yes, it is obvious that 2 pounds of any food in any any person of any height
and any activity level will not give the same results. It is also obvious
that no diet is 100% successful. That is likely the reason all Chung's
claimed data (if it really exists) has never been present for peer review.

I can see he's insane. There's nothing wonderful about hunger. It appears
religion pushed him over the edge. I knew a woman who suffered the same fate
as years passed. She lost her job due to her growing fanaticism, her god
mania. Her husband left her and her kids refused to visit her. Her friends
all abandoned her because they couldn't take the constant "praise the lord"
Jesus loves you god talk, just like Chung. She ended up on SSD and lived in
a ramshackle rooming house. At the end she wandered the streets in filthy
rags preaching to invisible people. And this woman was once a well respected
Real Estate agent.... until she "found god."

gives 2 word replies that say nothing helpful. I still can't get the

If his diet actually worked as he claimed, it would be well known by now and
peer reviewed. He reminds me of those fanatics some time back pounding the
grapefruit and cabbage soup diets. So far, from the online research I've
done, the low-carb diet is the most successful diet out there. The problem
is, like most diets, most people will not, or cannot stick to it long term.
The 2PD diet is absurd since the caloric count varies so much from one food
to another and there are too many variables in people's lives for it to be
effective for all.

How many people do you know personally who tried this diet? What are their
ages, heights, activity levels and sex? Where are their records to check
for ourselves? What Hospital's diet research Lab were they connected to?
Why is there nothing online, on TV or on the News about this diet and this
group of people? What exactly did the 2 lbs consist of? Anecdotes don't
count. Anyone can make any claims they want and they do. That proves
nothing. Just look at some of the claims the alternative health nuts come up
with. All their magical cures for cancer etc.

I asked at work this past week, and many people work in my office. Not one
even heard of Chung's 2PD diet so how is it you know all these people who
tried it and succeeded? Not only that, but you can't tell us if they ate
burgers and fries or celery and lettuce. None of my relatives, neighbors or
friends heard of this diet either.

MU didn't write that, only the ``Yes''. I wrote the rest. My claim was that
there is an upper bound on the energy content in 900 grams of food. This was in
the context of an argument that food mass can serve as an adequate control
parameter, not that 8100 kcal is a good intake for fat loss. Please read
stuff in its proper context and reply to the proper person.

I did some research to see if there exist any statistics about the average
energy density of food. Here is one source. Check out the paper ``Dietary
Energy Density in Relation to Subsequent Changes of Weight and Waist
Circumference in European Men and Women''.

Quotes:

This population-based prospective cohort study included 89,432 participants
from five European countries with mean age 53 years (range: 20.78 years) at
baseline and were followed for an average of 6.5 years (range: 1.9.12.5
years).

...

The overall mean ED was 1.7 kcal/g and higher in men (1.9 kcal/g) than in
women (1.6 kcal/g).

Look at that; women were found to be eating at a lower caloric density.

907 grams at 1.9 kcal/g is 1723 kcal.

907 grams at 1.6 kcal/g is 1451 kcal.

Two pounds of the stuff that constitutes the average intake appears to be in
the ballpark for safe, effective dieting, for both men and women.

Are you stupid?

You can measure a quantity of food once a day, and only eat food from
that pre-measured parcel.

Doh?

Chung does not seem to put any qualifiers on his 2PD with regards to the food
that makes up the 2 pounds. Cannot imagine a diet of 2 pounds of fudge a day
(or even eating a diet of that) would result in a weight loss.

Would seem that 2 pounds of average intake would result in weight loss as
that would be a reduction in the amount eaten which should give a weight
loss.

I remember the ads for some diet drink where you had one for breakfast, one
for lunch and then a "sensible" dinner. They did not say in the ad that you
could have whatever you wanted for dinner.

It is Chung's claim with no qualifiers that is the problem.

Just as people don't ever learn their speed without looking at their

Nope. it's the fact that you have no solid arguments against a 100%
success rate on the 2PD.

The fact that you have to weigh your food to learn the weight is
indisputable.

Because you cannot imagine something, does not mean it does not exist or
someone would not want to do it.

If there are no qualifications with the 2PD, then can be two pounds of
anything anyone wants even if you cannot imagine someone eating two pounds of
fudge everyday.

Of course, if there is a qualifying statement that it is a "reasonable" diet,
then 2 pounds of fudge would not be part of it.

Another "gold miner" claim. So far they have all been fool's gold and would
like to see the "assay" (proof) and the criteria for success and the numbers.
Have to always read the "fine print."

We remain grateful to GOD for His arranging for folks like Robert
Weldon trying all sorts of different kinds of diets including the
fudge-only diet in combination with the 2PD-OMER Approach in an
attempt to thwart the latter. Their failures have allowed us to
reject the null hypothesis that the 2PD-OMER Approach loses efficacy
when the diet consists of ones favorite foods.

"That's what I was kicking around. Find something that will cause
weight gain that fits his two pound rule, gain about 20 pounds, then
claim his $2,000,000 guarantee. Then sue him when he doesn't come
through on his promise." -- Robert Weldon (1/10/08)

Oh, so now someone, Robert Weldon, has tried the fudge diet. Now was it
presented before in this group or is this the first time so MU was not aware
of it as MU wrote he could not imagine anyone eating two pounds of fudge a
day.

I was correct when I pointed out to MU that because he could not imagine it,
did not mean it could not be.

Wrong.

From a recent post from Chung:

"We remain grateful to GOD for His arranging for folks like Robert
Weldon trying all sorts of different kinds of diets including the

fudge-only diet in combination with the 2PD-OMER Approach in an
attempt to thwart the latter. "

So, things do exist outside what you can imagine. Unless, you claim Chung is
not telling the truth.

So were you wrong or is Chung a liar.
