Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

You realize "in my experience" means I have done it myself? And let me tell you they are nice and good to drop a few kilos in a structured and supervised environment.

Afterwards you are right back in your normal routine, and there you need to make the actual change happen. Permanently changed eating habits and frequent physical exertion.

If you can’t do that no fat camp in the world helps you long term.

Well, it's true that they don't help in the long term by themselves, but they are a huge help to headstart a change in routine.

You don't need to tell me, as I said in my comment, I too did an intensive program and in helped me reroute my routine. It might help that since I needed to down 30kg there was no way in hell I'd do that in a week, so I focused on what I already wrote in the last comment.

All I wanted to say in my last comment is that they are good to reset a routine so that you can start getting new habits for the upcoming marathon.
