    whats -40c?

    Canadian

    Typical american answer - metric is not a "canadian" thing. There's only 3 countries in the world (US and 2 other 3rd world countries) that still use the backwards imperial system, maybe it's time for the US to step it up a notch.

    If you dont like it stay out.
    You need all the tourism you can considering your country is on the verge of bankruptcy.

    Dude! What-eva!!!

    Hey, you got $17,000,000,000,000 to help a brother out?

    Well, he may have been truly concerned since it was cold outside. It is true the you will get warm later but starting out it would be cold. You have to do what is best for you to meet your goals. He is going to say what he wants. Accept that this is how he is and what he does. Don't let it bother you. Either he will stop saying things because he will accept what you are doing. Or you will proceed as planned and meet your goals.

    He gets it, all right. He gets that if you go out in -40 windchill without a hat, and your ears get frostbitten, then he gets the job of driving you to the doctor and listening to you complain about how it hurts.

    For the love of Mike, have some sense.

    I was kidding.

    And I'm also half Canadian.
    Frankly, I believe the US should use the metric system.
    Would've made all of my engineering and science classes better.
    Less conversions.
    For reals. And in the real world. Also, why the hell is the EIT in metric, but the PE in imperial?!

    My husband has said he is afraid I'll get skinny and leave him. I assure him I'll NEVER be a skinny woman, but I want to be strong and healthy to insure I'll have a long life with him. That being said, he always worries when I walk alone even though I carry pepper spray, but he just plain worries.

    seemed like he was just concerned for your well being. Is there more to this? running in -40 windchill is a bit extreme. Maybe time to invest in a treadmill or gym membership.

    thanks for some help and no thanks to the rude people on here attacking me!!

    He doesn't do it every time, just when i go out running in a sports bra.. I think he doesn't want others to see me?? I only started running since new years.

    Also not canadian lol! I live in michigan!

    It's too cold to run in a sports bra. If I saw a woman running in a sports bra with a -40F windchill (and I'm in MN), I would offer them a ride because they're obviously running from an attacker -- otherwise they'd be properly dressed for the weather. You risk frostbite even though you're moving. Google pictures of frostbite, it can be horrific.

    Don't allow whatever other issues you and DH have to override your health and well-being.

    lol im in the same boat, my boyfriend gets so jealous. he wants me fat, because he worries that if i get thin, ill leave him. sometimes you just have to ignore them on those comments, and just communicate your love for them no matter your size. the only thing i do agree with his is you probably shouldnt be running in -40 windchill, frost bite will set in in around 10-15 minutes. next time its that cold, just try working out in the house. i bought wii active for the days when it's too cold to go outside, it gives me both strength and cardio to do, and its only 20 minutes of my life. if i dont feel challenged enough, i can always do one of the preset or custom work outs as well.

    -40 windchill is extremely cold and extremely dangerous.

    I honestly cannot tell if this is a trolling post or if you are serious because this seems insane to me - and I'm from Iowa where it gets just as cold.

    Can't you buy a treadmill or something for when it is so cold out?

    three years ago I had lost over 70 pounds and went from size 20 to size 10 over a year and still had more to go. One day I decided to surprise him when he walked in and I was in teddy. he said oh you look nice and went into the other room. I waited a few minutes and said does this not motivate you and he said NO. My heart sank I could not believe what he said. I got so depressed I I have almost gain all of it back. Now her am having do all this work again this time I told him not to say anything negative about me..I let him win then now no. I told him you may want to large and out of shape but I don't. I wont ask you to come to the gym and you don't stop me. So its been three weeks so far so good. Just tell him I know what I am doing good luck to you
