Does "method" include "exercise and healthy eating"?

This post has generated so much more controversy than I expected.

I meant exactly exercise and healthy eating! I thought people would assume I meant that. Not gastric bypass surgery, not liposuction, not starvation, not amputating limbs.

Whenever I see someone with one of those badges that says; 'Lose weight now, ask me how!", I check that they have all their limbs.

That's ok. Just put an ETA in the top-level comment to clarify that. There's a lot of wiggle room around "healthy eating" though. Where are you drawing the line between calorie restriction and starvation?
