Will I eventually disappear?
 

So, what with eating and drinking more sensibly and an hour's swim three time a week I'm losing about a pound every couple of weeks. Everyone says you should make a lifestyle change rather than "go on a diet" and that's what I've done. I like this new lifestyle and I want to keep it. But what happens when I reach my target weight (currently on schedule for next May)? Am I going to have to add a bag of crisps on a regular basis in order to stop losing weight? I don't want to do that, so will I just disappear altogether?
(being the nerd I am I could give you a date for that if you want to put it in your diaries ...).

Is the weight loss a linear function with time, or has it been decreasing?

As you weigh less, you will also do less work just walking around and breathing and everything else. Equilibrium will hit before you disappear. :)

Weight loss is variable, but not decreasing with time.

Yabbut Clod I was told that muscle uses more energy so now I'm fitter all my muscle is using more calories than my fatty globules were so as I'm also eating fewer calories I'll just waste away!

machine translation is a comic failure. you're good to go for the foreseeable future.

"The vodka is good, but the meat is rotten."

BigV what were you trying to translate?

"The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak." from English to Russian then turn that Russian back into the same translator to get English again.

:lol:

Limey, you will eventually disappear but that will have more to do with what you know than what you eat.

Yes. When your heart stops beating.

If you post the data we can figure out when that will be.

Wait! Is the snark a boojum?

What's a boojum, zenjum?

If the reports coming in are true, we were all unappeared a long time ago, or never appeared at all.

I have to process all this existentialism. ;)
