LOL na kind i'm not high .. just fillping though channels and i saw they where giving someone and IV on the Health Channel

the new IV diet!

you wouldn't last more then 30 days. Even if they put through the tube your body would go into atrpphy because it would waste away. The all new ally mcbeal iv diet is more like it

my dad is in a comma

they feed him with an IV thats called a G tube, it is a hole that goes straight to his stomach, and it has a little rotary pump to pump in the food, slowly.

the "food" is everything a human needs to live.

he used to weigh 220, now i think he weighs 150, he lost a lot of fat, but also a lot of muscle.

im sure it would work just fine for a person that isnt in the comma, but having a hole in your belly with a line going to it to pump food i would suck. you would lose body fat for sure, but im sure you would also not want to move too much(painful) and carry around the IV machine(you dont want to have a new hole poked in you for every meal do you?)

he was a bit confused, he was prob referring to all your muscles atrophying over the year, and then when u come to having to get ur strength back to be able to move...
it's not lockjaw to where things will rust in place, but it's just the muscles needing to know how to respond and grow...fun fun rehab

not eating all together works >> im the most un healthy kid lol. i usta throw up after ever meal for a good year 16-17yr because of stress and what not. not that i thought i was fat haha. so went to the doctors had an Upper GI and hey found nothing. so now im 18yr almost 19 and i eat maybe 1 full meal aday with a few snacks between. i take a multi vitam or else id die lol i ear the worst crap for me. But since i dont eat alot i weight 140 at 6,1" yeah its weird and when i eat to actaully gain weight nothign happens. either i have a tap worm the size of the mississippi in my tummy or my body doesnt know its alive. eating is overated >>

besides it less weight reduction i have to do to the celica >>

ive always thought that the two things that waste a lot of my time is eating and going to the bathroom. then irealized that if i stop doing one, i could also stop doing the other. Think about all the things i could get done with all that unwasted time!

I barely eat anything. I usually only eat like 1/4 of every meal. I barely have an appetite.

Let me tell you all about eating, i'm a CROSS COUNTRY and TRACK runner. If i'm not asleep i'm eating, otherwise i get sick. My body and all my fellow team mates bodies just suck and suck and suck down the food, either staying the same weight, or getting lighter on the fat, and stronger in the muscle. I eat at home when i'm in season, haha. I don't make money, good ol' home -- for food

mmmmmmmmm fooooddddd i probably consume around 20 or more pounds a day i love eatting!!!!!!!!!!!

anything and everything i'm a human garbage disposal its great

plus being half asain i can eat how much i want and i don't gain a single pound i'm 5' 10" and wieght about 145-150 skinny fit and lovin it!

not true, that only happens if you dont move around. gettin a "iv diet" is the same as getting regular food. i wouldent be suprised if u could live the rest of your life off an iv diet
