How I have lost over 100 pounds and don’t know how

I'm pretty sure I didn't recommend eating unrestricted amounts of veggies, I did laugh about the idea. After all, I would have to eat a walmart/target size bag FULL of brussel sprouts to get my daily allowance of calories from brussel sprouts. That is a huge volume of food! I'm not sure if would be possible.

I was responding to someone talking about eating "raw celery". Vegetables in general are low in calories (before as you and I mentioned, oil sugar etc are added), BUT raw celery is well known to have a net negative impact.

Celery does not have a negative net impact.

It's a common misconception.

I stand corrected- thats what I get for believing what I was talk in highschool health class. Celery is simply very low in calories.

Btw, why would you create a user name just to post the above?

Because I didn't have an account (having previously nothing to contribute).
