Another experiment

[poxpower]

I will eat 100 calories less a day, starting today with 2000, all the way down to 0 and then all the way back up to 2000.

So yes, that means today, 2000. Tomorrow, 1900. And so on.

Wish me A LOT OF STUPID.
Wait, you don't need to wish it upon me, I'm already on the general forum of Newgrounds :D

Well good luck with that. I know I'd probably quit by the time I got to 400 or so. I mean I do love me some 2000 calories.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF-

[Maverick-Alex]

So basically, eat, starve, eat?

[Chymeraxe]

You're going to feel like your dead when your calorie intake reaches 500 and less.

Good luck.

Concentration camp is gonna be brutal. But this does sound like a really interesting idea.

Whats the chance you will break and just gorge yourself at some point?

[Sneak-a-Toke]

Hmm, that chart is interesting.
Especially the part that sais "Concentration Camp", good luck with that.
I mean thats like what, a juice box and a cheese string a day?

have fun

[knightsofthecircle]

So, you finally decided to update your site?

[Sheizenhammer]

That's basically 40 days of malnourishment for no reason. Boy are you gonna be cranky (if not delusional and ill) by the end of it.

And why do I get the idea that I'm the only one not breaking the over 16's only rule so far?

Pretty low considering I've gone 22 days without eating solid food before :O
This will be the hardest thing yet though....

But of course not as hard as actually changing my habits in the long-term :D
Habits are for gaylords.

Actually, I suggest you try sleeping 20 minutes every 4 hours for a month. I've tried it before, and the first week or so is hell, but after that, you feel great.

[FUNKbrs]

I'm going to be eating extra calories, just to piss you off.

hopefully a sideeffect of this diet will be your woolly leg hair falling out.

[esko-man]

I'm... just not catching the point. But fuck, why not? Good luck and lots of stupid to you.

Wow. I'm sure it's possible to do what you're about to try, but you may end up getting really sick. If you wanna lose weight, you should pace yourself. Instead of eating almost nothing for several consecutive days, just reduce your intake to say, 1800, and try to maintain that intake each day. You won't lose weight as quickly, but you also won't feel like shit.

What'll probably happen is you'll feel terribly sick, and eventually give in and start binging. You may end up GAINING weight.

Well, whatever you do, just don't hurt yourself!

[ParadoxSaint]

My dear boy, you are duly mislead! Of what kin where you to your paternalistic characters? Do stop this felonious act or you shall forever feel the burning purgatory pit veiled of your stomach.

Sounds interesting, I'm going to watch this thread.

[Sinitech]

Are you David Blaine or some shit?

[DanceNation]

Oh I've heard about that.
Maybe I will try it. It sounds like 100% pure bullshit though, but hey, let's go.

I won't

Yeah I will feel like shit. You don't understand how hungry people work apparently. To me, there is no difference between "eating just under what you should" and "eating almost nothing".

Any limitation is annoying. It's basically like ALMOST jerking off for a month. See how fun that is.

You may end up GAINING weight.

Yes I know how this works

No, he's rich.

This sounds like a really bad idea, especially the 10 days where you will be consuming less than 500 calories a day consistantly, I think that if you exert yourself too much during that time you run a serious health risk. I dont know if it's gona be good for you but you will certianly loose a ton of weight. Good luck I guess.

Prosecutor: For the record, you post on the website 'Newgrounds.com' under the alias "timmy" - is this correct?

Me: Yes

Prosecutor: And you posted in a thread created by the victim, alias "poxpower", entitled "Another Experiment"?

Me: That is correct

Prosecutor: And you knew the parameters of said 'Experiment' - and that it would be a risk to the victim's health? A LETHAL risk??

Me: Well...er...

Prosecutor: And yet you did nothing! You did not contact any authorities or even the site administrators?! You followed the victim's 'experiment' through this website, as he starved himself to death, and you. did. nothing.

Me: *sobs*

Prosecutor: No further questions.

Judge: Bailiff, get this monster out of my courtroom.

[tweekee]

well, It's not like you're going on a crash diet and starting at zero. You should survive this. But drink lots of water. You can survive a pretty long amount of time with no food, but only about 3 days without water. I suggest drinking only water, nothing like fruit punch or soda. I'm pretty sure water has no calories so you can save those precious calories for food consumption time. Good luck.

Dumbass.

[Luxury-Yacht]

Why do you do this kind of shit to yourself?

He's done that one before.

you trying to lose weight? or is this out of boredom? once you dip below a certain number of calories a day, your body kicks into survival mode and stores (turns into fat) almost everything you eat...not sure what amount that is though...but if youre just bored, fuck it, have fun...

Both :D
I swear after this I'll settle into a more long-term pattern.

But fuck, I spent an entire month at my parent's house and they just kept shoveling food into my mouth.

That amount is around 5000 calories.

Basically your body's entire goal in life is to amass fat. In the world of bodies, fat is diamond-encrusted platinum. If your body could replace every atom in your body with a fatom, it would.

"fatom" haha, thats good! and its a survival thing i guess...more fat means you can go longer without eating...
