It seems everyone can lose weight (except for me) from Kirstie Alley to my boss to Valerie Bertanelli and now the Universe!
I'm bummed.

I bet the Universe has a pair of old jeans it is now able to get into.

Relax....the universe didn't "lose" weight. It just got reweighed on a different scale. I'm sure that somewhere out there in consumer-land, is a scale that will show that you weigh less than your current scale says that you do. So ignore the number you see between your toes and go shopping! It'll make you feel better AND, you just MIGHT, find the perfect scale! ;^)

i got here upon the e book to be very informative and user-friendly to learn. i've got lost 17 pounds in 12 days, i'm in basic terms in touch that i'm dropping too much weight, too quickly. i will admit I even have not accompanied the representative precisely. i'm now not sticking completely to the listed nutrients and meal plans (whether many times) and doing little or no challenge, whether the burden keeps flying off. It needless to say works and if i might accompanied it precisely i think it ought to scare the living daylights out of me in view that of the quantity that i might lose. So thank you as quickly as greater for the comprehend-how. i've got not offered something like this in the past than in view that they are specially crammed with trash, whether 3WD has been an outstanding marvel. Get began at latest!

I wonder whether the Lamb shift might be a mechanism for a slow mass leak from the universe.
The Lamb shift is a slight broadening of spectral lines in starlight caused when photons from the star, on their way to us, encounter the dipole E/M fields of virtual electron-positron pairs, which are formed by pair production from vacuum energy. These virtual dipoles have a duration upper bound set by the uncertainty principle.
Traveling photons encounter these dipoles in a slightly asymmetric way: the "closest approach" might occur about when the dipoles expire. The photon of starlight might have fallen down a potential field, but not yet have recovered when the dipole vanishes.
h(nu) sub "after" is (very very slightly) less than h(nu) sub "before." So where does the missing photon energy go?
Maybe the universe is a black hole, and the missing energy becomes its exterior Hawking radiation. In 1E151 years or so, the whole universe might evaporate!

Actually, they're lying about the Universe losing weight.
Those x-ray observations may have made it look for a while there like the Universe lost a little weight, but in fact that's an error---the current best estimate of Omega is still 1.00!

Hilarious question, Pedi -- rofl.
I suspect the Universe hired a trainer for motivation. I mean, have you ever seen the touchas on Mars? It was disgusting.
p.s. -- if you want to know how to lose weight, send me a message. I used to be a body builder (I'm going to take it up again within the next few weeks) and I'd be happy to give you some advice.

Maybe a straight chocolate diet would help
like:
Chocolate milk
Chocolate ice cream
Chocolate covered peanuts
Chocolate pancakes.
Chocolate truffles
Chocolate covered cherries
Chocolate chips
Dark chocolate
Milk Chocolate
Light chocolate
And it is Hot Chocolate time!!
Don't let anyone convince you chocolate is not a food!!

Do not look at it like that sister. Just think that earth is loving you so much that it is pulling you toward it ; )

You need to convert mass into energy (E = mc2). In other words exercise.

It didn't LOSE weight. The weight was re-estimated!

Hi. You can't loose it, but you can move it from inside your skin to outside your skin. Your choice.
