Changes in Body-Weight Compared with Balance of Income and Outgo. 



The balance of income and outgo is compared with the fluctuations in 

 body-weight and as in the other fasting experiments the feces passed during 

 the experiment have not been included in obtaining the outgo. The com- 

 parisons of the measured and computed losses show unsatisfactory agreement 

 on the first 2 days.

1 The data in this line should not be confounded with urine data in other tables, 

 explanation, p. 66. 



2 Not included in the total outgo. See p. 120. 



See 



Output of Heat. 



The total heat production, shown in column d of table 159, was fairly 

 constant throughout the 4 days of this experiment, the difference between the 

 maximum and minimum amounts being but 67 calories.
