Not sure if it is good or bad, but certainly one sided and sexist. I wanna see some shirtless women lol!

Age: 40 Height: 5'10 Starting weight: 394 New weight: 250 Calorie intake daily: 1900 Exercise routine: Running/ Cycling/ Swimming - Just ran first half marathon.

I like my women (wife) a little thicker..think Ice-T love CoCo minus the ghetto. Something sexy about a woman who is fit but also soft to the touch.

Well they did make attachments for cordless drills so who know

yea but 500 for a wife replacement that actually makes dinner is not bad if you think about it. The only downside is that sexual relations with it are out of the question.

Best town in the state Fort Worth

I did extensive research on blenders because I want a Vitamix so badly. I own a Ninja master prep (the one with the motor on top) and I have been making green smoothies with frozen fruits, veggies and ice no problem.

Just call me a vampire!

Are we talking face, scalp or ???

Here is a video that helped me alot. Around 9 minutes he talkes about stride rates and stride length. There are many different running styles and I am not saying this one is the best, it just worked for me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYNZUioUdHQ

Sloooooooooooow down and be patient. I began running in January 2012 and could only run about .5 mile then had to walk. I just ran my first half-marathon Sunday. I still run/ walk some. I can run up to about a 10k before needing to alternate. You should go for more shorter strides, sometime feeling more like a shuffle than…

Well I too am 40....so technically you would not be a cougar from my perspective.

No wonder you are bored, yo are hard to please. Katy Perry, panty sniffing, tasting, cougars, ewoks and spinning Norwegians?? What more do you want?

Are you a cougar?

Should we start our own thread then??

Here is something to prevent boredom that the above poster made me think about. Being the creeper that I am, I clicked on her profile and noticed two things. First, you are beautiful and fit, Second, you are 40, which I would not have guessed. This made me realize that I am getting old because I am finding the moms hotter…

@bre...affair!

Well I married my HS sweetheart...sort of...she was in HS and I was 28. Long story that sounds creepy until you hear it (she was 18 so not I am not a pedophile). As for above...if I were single...well you are a beautiful girl so I am pretty sure any straight male would say torrid affair!

When I first read about this I too was appalled. Speaking as someone who was once a hopelessly super morbidly obese person to someone now who is a few BMI points away from being out of the obese category I do see both sides, in theory at least. Lets say this could be done under strict medical supervision safely. Working in…

No one is arguing that obesity or the cost of obesity gives anyone a right to shame, discriminate or hate anyone else, just like no other vice, sin, habit or addiction does. However, telling someone who is obese and refuse to makes changes, that they are living a healthy and selfish lifestyle is not shaming them, hating…

You are making a devil's advocate argument that does not make alot of sense. It sounds like you think we should simply accept people's behavior when it is destructive. It is quite possible I allowed myself to gain weight because I did not take the health concerns seriously enough. Frankly, I cannot tell you why I gained so…

First of all, the choices each of us makes have ripples across all of society. I am not a bigot nor a hater, in fact just the opposite but you illustrate perfectly what I am speaking about. Discussing in an open group my opinion that obesity is a treatable disease which should not be accepted is neither bigotry nor hate,…

Yep! The doctor should not have lied if he did. If he was scared of exactly what is happening anyway, he should have gotten hospital administration involved and run it up the flag pole to cover himself. A physician who is uncomfortable treating a patient is not a physician I want treating me or my family. If it was for…

I hope so too, but as you can see we have generations of people who are more interested in their own comfort and "right to do..." than the health and welfare of their children let alone other people. Sadly this is not their fault as most of them learned it from previous generations. It is, however, getting progressively…

Except that your choices affect more than just you. We in this country are extraordinarily selfish and self centered, even if we do not mean to be. This is the way of western society: rugged individualism with little desire to compromise our comfort for the sake of others. That is not too say we are all greedy or we do not…

The problem I have is that we call it "fat acceptance" instead of "people acceptance". We continue to care out niches for those who are marginalized in society instead of focusing on loving and accepting all people. I will not condone obesity as an acceptable way of life for anyone, other than those who cannot medically…

Yes actually, it is called gluttony. Bibilical morality aside, it is selfish because those of us who are obese and continue to be so without making changes, impact others. The cost of healthcare is proportional to obesity related disease. The carbon footprint of nations whose population is obese is much higher. The cost of…

Roughly 16% averaged across the US population.

You are correct that for a small percentage of obese people who possess a metabolism disorder, they cannot just stop being fat. However, the overwhelming majority of obese people, me included, became fat from making bad choices.

Not sure what you base this on, but the CDC defines obesity as a chronic disease.
