i have to admit you sound a bit of a know-it-all-prick with your post about myths/facts though. Loosing 27.5lb and dieting for 60 days, most of those 'myths' dont really apply

I think you misunderstood the "myths". That was a list of things that people spout as "truths", that aren't true for ME. I even say 2 paragraphs later that I dont know DICK about how to help people lose weight, only what works for me. I think you skipped all the surrounding paragraphs...

nono, i agree for the most part of a lot of them. But stuff like eating very low calories, though it works in the short term of a couple months, it will catch up with you in the long run
I agree on a lot of them though, i was more commenting on that you only did 60 days or almost 30lb so some of them dont even apply to you at all anyway. Things like eating lower calories definatly do affect you if you continue it for more than a couple of months for sure.

Well it really does depend on your weight. At 150 pounds... you can maintain very easiliy at 1800-2000 calories a day. Did it for several years. But so many places say 1800-2000 is too low for a male. It just isn't so for me. That's all I was saying was that every person is different. You gotta take a good look at who you are and what works/doesn't work for you.
But hey, I've read your site and we're so on the same page. Just know that 1200 is only for me to lose and I'll maintain closer to 2000... I won't however go over 2000 a day. I'm just not active enough to sustain it. I know the formulas say doing NOTHING burns like 2200 calories a day but I'm tellin' ya... not for me. Just what I've found over the past 10 years.

fair call, you're not a huge bulky guy like most are though anyway, and like me probably a desk jockey. I know i dont loose if i dont cycle - on the other hand if i do cycle i loose tons (probably because i go so far and long and hard)

Well sweet jesus, your story is extraordinary. It's so funny - I just read on msnbc.com that some lady dropped 140 pounds and she made national news. And I'm like - "WHAT ABOUT WISHES IN NEW ZEALAND!!!!"
;-) You're incredibly inspiring...
