I have totally found the best way to lose weight fast for a week. Get the flu, then have that manifest in your throat so you develope ulcers that make you feel like you have strep(?) throat, and your all set. I survived for four days on ginger ale, orange juice, and a few crackers whenever I had to take the t3's for the massive amount of pain the ulcers caused. And I dropped 15 pounds without moving a muscle. of course the down side is it left too weak to do almost anything, that and I was running a fever for the duration.

Oh well, I'm back to my normal self, although still a few pounds lighter, and going to wushu for the first time in two weeks, so all is okay today.
