Is it true that the we cary around up to 22 pounds of undigested food? That's what they said in a comercial...

I believe that the commercial's point is that at any given time a person can have pounds of undigested food in their system including:  food that's currently being digested, and particulate that never completed digestion and is putrifying in the intestines.  \n\nAlthough 22 lbs does sound excessive.

Ate ate ate ate  and then ate some more..I am still stuffed.  We had family in from Michigan, Tennesee, and from Florida..So my house was very full.  It was very good tho.  We had turkey, ham, green bean cassarole, corn, chicken stuffing (home made very awesome), 24 hr Salad, bread, candied yams, blackberry cobler, peach cobler, a custard desert with angel cake (very awesome) chocolate cake, cookies of all kinds, and so much more..I still have a full fridge.\n\nI hope yours went well also.

i was on topamax and it sucked. i'm not sure if i lost weight because i didn't have a scale, but if i smelled food i would just want to vomit. i had not appetite because the smell and the idea of food just made me sick, but i still SO hungry. it was really sad and my stomach was just constantly upset. so... i mean if you don't eat... yeah, i'm sure you could lose 20 lbs in a month, but it would be the same as starving yourself.

I think your pastor was full of it, and it wasn't food. Show me where in the Bible it says that being overweight is a sin.

The weight of food has little to do with weight gain. Practically all of the weight of food gets pooped right out of us.

Yeah I was wondering this myself as I watched it this week and one guy lost twenty pounds in one week.  Wtf?!!  I think they make them exercise 4-5 hours a day and starve themselves.  I have heard that a healthy weight loss is 1-2 pounds per week, and if you lose faster than that, you are more likely to gain it back.  These people are losing 5, 10, up to 20 pounds per week. It makes me wonder once the show is over if they will be able to maintain their loss.

You can "guesstimate" it weighs about the same as a cubic foot of water, since most prepared food products are mostly water anyway. So, about 62Lbs, or very roughly 28 kilograms...\n\nHope that helps...

that is sad !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! but is reality -----now this is only my opinion towards obesity----you know how our healt insurance premiums have gone so high!!!! well that is because in part  there are so many people over weigth ...( and there are other factors but this is one each individual can control if you want)...    and wether we want or not when they get sick we  all pay the price ,how you may ask?.... well our premiums keep going up!!!--  i don't have the facts but last time i checked   about 65% of our population in the U S  was overweight .....with this in mind --you know  were are going to have more  heart problems , diabetes,cancer just to nave a few -----how has it affected me ?my health premium is $220 a month just for my self and my two children, that is outragest to me.... but if i want to be insure i have to pay the price----now.... i know some people can't help it and i am aware that it is not their fault ...it is genetic, but  come on give me a braek not 65% of our populations decends from obese people--some people are over eating and that is how they gain all that extra weight----soooo health insurance should be like car insurance the  safer you drive the cheaper your premiums are, like wise the more in shape and healtier you are the lower your premiums should be --but unfortunateli when it comes to healt insurance we all pay the same amoun that is not fair for some of us that do take care of our selves and don't over do the eating part----that is just my  opinion--

It is not so much gaining but the rapid losing for the weigh in.  They will dehydrate theirselves sometimes to make weight and it is healthy to gain that back.
