I hope July is okay and gets better soon. She's one of the few people in Dgames who's never a ****.

how does the body process energy? isn't it like sugars->carbs->fat?
or something.
anyway, it makes sense that it would burn fat if it doesn't have the other stuff.
pretty much this. Once the body turns carbs into sugars and uses those up, it uses the fats or proteins,then the other one of the two.
I really hope she feels better.
This.

Hospitals are yuck :urg:
True story. If there are tons of people, they just reuse beds and even sheets without changing them. Hilarious story but a guy puked all over himself and they double booked the room. I offered to change the sheets but the RN told me to just ship them in. Can pretty much figure out how that went. Also they use to get prescriptions wrong a lot before they started bar coding medications and wrist bans. Fun stories, fun times.

it's funny because i've never paid attention to diet/weight loss stuff. they all seem to be fads and incorrect, so i dismiss anything i see.

eating mostly fat and losing fat as a result sounds legit though.

Sugar is a carb...carbohydrates are a type of compound. With the exception of fiber, carbohydrates have to be broken down via insulin and then can be used or stored in fat cells. (That's why your blood sugar spikes, and why diabetic people have to moderate sugar/bread intake, because they don't produce insulin right).

When the body doesn't have energy, it starts screaming at you that you're hungry and then starts going to the fat cells for energy. Idea is, steady stream of fat, no carbs, body switches to relying on the fat. Ketosis. Works wonders.

I learned what Praxis means while reading one of my texts last night.

Its meaning is just as esoteric as I expected it to be.

also tell July if she doesn't get better EE's going to punch her in the d***.

That should get her right as rain in no time, if Gigabots has taught me anything.

Thank you everyone. : D I told her.

And she laughed at EE's statement. Hopefully it makes her recovery that much quicker.

Oh wait, beer is actually the american name for water, nvm then <_<

:059:
Hmmm? I don't like drinking water, but I don't drink beer. : D

From what I've heard, there are several countries in Europe that are much more notorious for their alcohol consumption than America.
