You poor guy.

You remain in my prayers, neighbor.

FYI Note: I am aware that I am responding to a cross-posted message.
Because the author of the message to which I am responding did not request
that the header be trimmed, I have not trimmed it. If you are upset about
reading this message, a few suggestions:

(1) Yell at Matti
(2) Report Matti to his ISP
(3) Killfile this thread.
(4) Killfile me.
(5) Read about free speech.

Bob's pathological obsessions are related to the 2 pound diet approach
(2PD) which is described completely at:

http://www.heartmdphd.com/wtloss.asp

Though Dr. Chung invented this approach, he did not initiate the Usenet
discussion(s). His participation in this discussion(s) has been voluntary
and has been conducted in the spirit of community service. His motivation
has been entirely altruistic and has arisen from his religious beliefs as a
Christian. Jesus freely gave of Himself to better the health of folks He
touched:

http://www.heartmdphd.com/healer.asp

From the outset, it has been clear that there are those who are vehemently
opposed to the 2 pound diet approach. They have debated Dr. Chung on every
perceived weakness of the 2 pound diet approach and have lost the argument
soundly at every point:

http://www.heartmdphd.com/wtlossfaqs.asp

These debates are archived on Google in their entirety within this
discussion thread(s).

However, instead of conceding gracefully that they've lost the argument(s),
certain parties have redirected their hatred of the 2 pound diet approach
toward its author. The rationale appears to be "if you can not discredit
the message then try to discredit the messenger."

Initially, these folks accused the messenger of "trolling." A "troll" is
someone who posts under the cloak of anonymity messages with no redeeming
discussion value and with the sole purpose of starting "flame" wars.

These hateful folks lost credibility with this accusation when the
following observations were made:

(1) Dr. Chung has not been posting anonymously.
(2) The 2PD has been on-topic for the Usenet discussion groups hosting the
discussion(s).
(a) Those who are failing low-carbing can dovetail LC with the 2PD to
achieve near-ideal weight.
(b) Obese diabetics improve their blood glucose control when their
weight becomes near-ideal.
(c) For (b) see: http://makeashorterlink.com/?V5D042C47
(3) Dr. Chung did not start the discussion(s).
(4) The 2 pound diet approach is 100% free (no profit motive).
(5) Dr. Chung's credentials are real and easily verified on-line (including
jpegs of the actual diplomas).

Full of hatred, frustration, and desperation, certain individuals have
tried to attack Dr. Chung's credentials knowing full well that they were
attempting to libel him. One notable example is Mr. Pastorio:

http://www.heartmdphd.com/libel.asp

When the full light was cast on Mr. Pastorio's libelous statements, the
hateful folks hiding in the darkness of anonymity only hissed louder in
support of their fallen hero.

Fortunately, those who have been following this discussion(s) either
actively or as lurkers can easily dismiss the hisses, for what they are,
using the on-line third-party resources at:

http://www.heartmdphd.com/profile.asp

where Dr. Chung's credentials can be verified many times over and libelous
claims that credentials were bought are easily and summarily debunked.

Moreover, readers need only make the following observations concerning the
anon posters who continue to hiss (ie JC Der Koenig and Mack):

(1) They are anonymous and thus they expect to have no credibility (or
accountability).
(2) They are by their Usenet history courtesy of Google, unsavory
characters.
(3) They have not added anything to the discussion(s) except to deliver
one-sided insults.
(4) They complain about alleged cross-posts from Dr. Chung by
cross-posting.
(5) They do not complain about cross-posts from folks who attack the 2PD or
its author.

and conclude that these anon posters deserve only their kill file.

It is my hope that the above brings new readers of this thread up to speed.

It will remain my pleasure to continue the discussion(s) about the 2PD
above the din of hissing from the peanut gallery.


Servant to the humblest person in the universe,

Andrew

Default Diet Season is Over

That's true for me. Had to end my gym membership for awhile after surgery.
That's when I regained a lot of weight. Now I'm ready to go back but I'm
waiting until after the resolution rush. One of the reasons is when I
weighed 353 I went in January and people were s******ing and it was kind of
humiliating. If I hadn't of been so determined to lose the weight I might
not have ever gone back.

signed up for memberships stop coming.


After working at a gym for a couple of years now, I've noticed that
the wave of new members doesn't happen at the first of the year. The
mindset is, "There'll be a lot new year resolution newbies at the gym
on January 2nd, and since I don't want to be seen as a one of them,
I'll start my new workout resolution a little later." Its toward the
end of January and into February that I get a lot of people who are
new to exercise and gyms.

Default Diet Season is Over

Rudy,

Your gym must be more sophisticated than mine. g

Starting on Jan 1, I couldn't get near a treadmill without a 20+ minute wait
for 3 weeks, then last week the place emptied out and it was back to normal,
with most of the people being the same folks I've been seeing there every
day since I started in September. The trainers told me this happens every
year. This is a small town Y and I go during the day when the regulars are
mostly older, retired people. I don't know what the after-work traffic is
like.

FYI Note: I am aware that I am responding to a cross-posted message. Because

Um, it was already crossposted when you decided to crosspost it.


See how "skillfully" Chung makes his lying even more dreadfully
apparent. He changed the quoted line to make it read something
opposite what it was to begin with.

Here's what it originally said: "Um, it wasn't crossposted until you
decided to crosspost it."

So the liar Chung is shown to lie about whether he started the
crosspost (he did) and he compounds his falsity by changing somebody
else's words to try to hide his first fakery. To help him slip-slide
past his fraudulence.

Poor Chung the unethical fraud.

The Atkins has brought so much self esteem. I feel so more in control
of my life.

Would suggest you ask your doctor about the 2PD approach.


February 9. Sunshyne's Doctor's Office.
---------------------------------------

Doctor: Sunshyne! You look absolutely radiant and healthy!

Sunshyne: Why thank you doctor! What do you know about the 2PD
approach?

Doctor: Approach to what?

Sunshyne: Dieting.

Doctor: Never heard of it.


Sunshyne: Well you eat anything you want as long as it is not
over two pounds a day.

Doctor: And?...

Sunshyne: Nothing. That's it.

Doctor: Hah Hah Hah! You're kidding me, right?

Sunshyne: No, there is a person claiming to be a Doctor on the
Internet who claims that it works.

Doctor: Sunshyne, there are all kinds of kooks on the Internet
claiming all kinds of things. But this? Heh, I
have to admit this is even kookier than usual. A
Doctor, you say... what hospitals does he have admitting
privileges at?

Sunshyne: He says he won't tell.

Doctor: I see. And how does a Doctor find so much time to
spend on the Internet ? I know I am too busy seeing
patients.

Sunshyne: He says he types fast.

Doctor: Types fast, eh? Does he have any evidence to back up
this so called "diet"?

Sunshyne: He says he got the idea at an IMAX movie. Oh, and he
has the Gift of Truth Discernment.

Doctor: Sunshyne, you are doing great on Adkins! I suggest you
stick with it and don't be swayed by outrageous claims
made by people you don't know on the Internet. You only
have to apply "An Ounce of Common Sense" to see what a
farce this is.

Sunshyne: Thank you Doctor. It's nice to talk to the "Real Thing"

Doctor: Thank you, Sunshyne. You're too kind by half. See you
next time.



You made me smile, thank you.

I think the 2pid diet is great.
Since you can basically eat whatever you want without worrying about health,
and the only restriction is that it be 2pid...

Trying to work up a week's meal plan here...

I LOVE Mr Goodbar.
1 bar - 1.75oz - 264 calories
That means I could have 18.3 Mr Goodbars in a day to hit my 2pid limit.
That would only be 4827 calories!

Ok, day 2.
I feel like eating really healthy today.
Chex mix - 1 oz - 120 calories
To be 2pid I could have 32 oz in a day.
That would be 3840 calories.

Day 3.
It feels like a nutty day.
Pistachio nuts - 1 cup - 128 g - 713 calories
Being as 2pid as I can be, I could have 7.1 cups in a day.
That would only be 5053 calories!

Still working on days 4-7...

Finally! A diet where I can eat whatever I want and only worry about it
being 2pid!
I'm guaranteed heart health and weight loss on my 2pid diet!

I've heard somewhere that the doctor who invented 2pid diet has now
standardized it, and that everyone should now move to this new standardized
version, which has been named s2pid. Is there any truth in this?
