Mate, I've trained with him in real life! Woo! It was last year in Hollywood - I am hoping to do it again next month. He teaches classes on a regular basis so I might get lucky when I'm in the area again. :D He is hilarious in real life.

I was always at my skinniest when I was poorest. I used to have $20 a week to spend on food - this was 15 years ago. I ate bread with butter and vegemite and milk mostly and I used to buy tins of chocolate powder for the milk. The only things I really missed were McDonalds, potato salad and pure chocolate. I had to BUDGET…

Get a cheapy from ebay or gumtree/ craigslist - bring it home and make sure it fits into your lifestyle before spending megabucks. That's what I did $150 and I've used in nearly every day for a year - when/ if it conks out I'll look at a more schmick model with all the bells and whistles (maybe quieter, and auto incline)…

Maybe do extra exercise and cut calories out of other meals? Skinny people eat cookies too - sometimes a whole box. It's all maths - just work it out. BTW this year will be my first year trying Girl Scout Cookies - an American friend is ordering them for me and keeping them for when I arrive in late March. I hope they're…

Violent Femmes 1995 - I was 18. I was so excited, it was a great first concert!

I just found out the the Piggly Wiggly was the first ever self service grocery store. I am VERY SAD that although I am staying in Florida in April I will be too far away to visit one. *cries*

lol, it's comedy food.

I dislike watching them do the really tough exercises - it's just not fun viewing. I get frustrated when they DON'T lose weight - on Aussie Biggest Loser this happens and sometimes they even GAIN. Not sure if this is true on the USA version but in the Oz version the contestants have plenty of access to food - they busted…

My friends can see mine, but if they feel the need to write negative comments to me about it I just delete them. Cya Stupid. I don't need the negs. Same reason I don't make it public - everyone has an opinion and opinions are free and that's pretty much exactly what they're worth.

Dyeing your hair will add shine and body. It's completely reversible if you hate it and want to go back (if you get a colourist to undo it) So great results for a small investment. It's not permanent like cutting is. I should mention I dye my butt length hair black and have done for years now, it was originally light…

Lots of reasons. 1 Opportunity 2. Boredom 3. Low self esteem (looking for a boost) 4. Desire to leave the relationship but fear being alone so line up someone else 5. Lonliness 6. Desire to punish esp if their spouse cheated first 7. Desire to abuse their spouse (just to be a douche) 8. Sex addiction (not everyone believes…

I wanted a treadmill so I just cruised Ebay and Gumtree (Aussie version of Craigslist) to get an idea of prices. Lots of people have treadmills at home that they NEVER use, occassionally they come up for sale after a clean up. (yay for us) I ended up with a simple one for $150 - I have used it nearly every day, I did C25K…
-
Maybe some self examination could help? Like, asking yourself why do you feel like you don't deserve to be a healthy weight? Worked for me, I have issues with my mother - she neglected me and I felt deeply unworthy, once I started to confront those demons I could move on and stay on the right track more easily. Just a…

Don't drink your calories.

I agree with those who suggest therapy. But I don't necessarily think you have a personality disorder - but perhaps you have a mood disorder and/or depression. Many people with depression feel disconnected from the world, many have problems with anger. Big hugs to you and I hope you get well soon xxx

Plenty of free workouts on youtube, no need to wait. :D

Me. I have never heard silence. It is loudest when there is no other sound around - in the bathroom after a shower is the loudest time. Sounds like a high pitched electronic noise. My husband also has it and he reckons it's getting worse as he ages - he is 53.
-
I'm not a fan of Dr Oz - but I know he has amazing credentials and I also believe he sincerely means well. Personally though, I don't think anyone needs an appetite suppresant, it's more psychological rather than physical. I know for me, I can eat when I'm not hungry - we all can - and we do. Which is why we're here. If…

I just remembered I like prawns 14 cals each Steam fresh veges about 115cals for the large portion - I especially love the corn. Fat free cottage cheese - been a while since I've eaten it but it's low cal and really yum.
-
I am a sugar addict and I once quit sugar for 6 whole weeks. This included all sugar - I ate no chocolate, nor anything sweetened with sugar during that time. I found the key was substitutions - I used xylitol - it's sweeter than sugar and better for you but not as yummy so you'll need motivation to stick with it. Weight…

Sounds awesome, I love yogurt <3
-
Why not just list them anyway? Everyone knows fruits and vege are low cal options. But no one can live by them alone.
-
THIS is what's wrong. No consequences. It's the owners/ managers fault for not issuing consequences for improper use of equipment. The owners/ managers need to take care of it and not leave it to other club members to confront rude/ entitled people.
-
Yes, this is possible. Are you male or female? Women have higher BF% naturally, but my husband who is 6'1 and 97kgs (he is taller than you and lighter *I think*) has a high BF% I think it was 30 when we measured it. Very high for a man, it just means his weight is fat rather than muscle.
-
This thread brings up a lot of painful emotions for me. My husband is the SAME (except he is overweight) and when I try to talk to him about not bringing me home junk food he does one of 2 things Firstly he will deny any wrongdoing (even though this is a recurring problem that we've had for years) or Secondly he will get…

If someone is jealous and calls you 'too thin' then I guess you must be. LOL - just joking. Too thin is subjective - *I* think too thin is when you (as a woman) lose your period. Whatever weight that is for you - but that definition excludes female body builders who may have a good BMI but such low body fat that they lose…

Pfffttt. Hogwash. My parents divorced when I was 4 - I was grateful, even at that age. Watching and being the victim of abuse is worse than divorce. Anyway, moving on. OP - LIMIT your interactions with your ex. No more talking/ listening at drop offs. Ignore all attempts of his to talk, email, text etc unless it directly…

Hey guys, something for anyone checking this out - I have started to skip the par-boil process and gone directly to dry frying these noodles! It improves the texture ALMOST to actual pasta texture. I'm very happy with this and can eat them without my stomach turning now.
-
Yeah, might have to mix them with normal pasta. Does anyone know if you just get used to it eventually? Like an acquired thing?

FYI Strippers only have first names.
