1. Amputation of least necessary limb.
Now if you want to lose FAT instead of WEIGHT, other things might work better.

4. Depends.
Some people take solice in food, and gain weight if their heart is broken.

6. No kidding, and for me, they have a rebond effect
At some point I get over it just enough to start binging and not caring how I look!

5. Heartbreak is guaranteed to make you lose the weight.
But since you may also lose the will to get out of bed in the morning, it can't be recommended.

7. Birth - No Question
No better way to lose over 10 pounds in a matter of seconds essentially.

My wife lost 15 pounds in two days with our daughter what with the baby, and all the other gunk in there. ;)

16. I could think of no better word
After being forced to watch hours upon hours of childbirth video in Bradley classes, followed by reading and education...

Yeah...gunk...just...just gross...Miracle of life hogwash, I'd have rather been in a bar across the street drinking and waiting for a call.

13. "A matter of seconds"

24 hours of labor and an hour of pushing was not a matter of seconds. At all. :scared:

15. Pfff. 24 hours. Wimp.
My wife had 72 hours of labor, 4 hours of pushing, and then a c-section.

What she would have given for 24 hours of labor and an hour of pushing.

Still she weighed X one minute, and seconds later she weighted over 10 pounds less. So she worked hard for it, but the weight loss mostly occured within a matter of about 5-10 seconds when the baby and placenta were pulled out through the gaping bloody hole in her abdomen.

Ah the miracle of life.

17. Get addicted to cocaine...
A woman at work was losing weight by the bucketful. Then was out of the office a lot, back for a few days, then out again. Turned out she couldn't quit the coke.

Lost custody of her son over that and then her job. The company put up with it for the better part of a year, and I commend them for that. I hope to hell she gets her life together and kicks the habit. She is a single mother and loves that child to pieces. For now, it appears, she loves the coke more.

:cry:

Oh, she also took up cutting herself.
