I did expect these types of comments, but would you guys mind explaining why it's unhealthy or a disservice to do so?
My two goals going into this were to a) lose weight at an acceptable rate (22 lbs. over 11 weeks for 2 lbs./wk, mainting a 500 cal./day defecit) and to b) retain muscle mass (I have gained a bit of muscle over this time period with a high-protein diet). Thus far, I have achieved both of these goals, and right now I'm in the best shape I've ever been in. My energy levels are high, I'm as flexible now as I was in elementary school, and most importantly it's helped with my confidence and self esteem.
