  • One thing that's a certain relationship killer, and that's... Contempt Some scientist figured that out. True story.
  • Starvation mode is a bit of a myth. Your metabolism will slow, but the fundamental of energy-in-energy-out always rules.
  • Isn't that the real goal though? Personally I seem to have flatlined at 70Kg, only after loosing 5kg. However it's still a bit early to tell. Will probably up my activity time and/or lower intake.
  • I guess it's just something you will learn in time. Not sure there is any way around it. Only thing I can think that might help is to use the mobile app to scan the barcode. That might give some more options like serving size in Crackers or what not instead of just grams. Anyhow, hope your liking Australia so far.
  • I think Kevin Spacey in American Beauty said it best... "I want to look good naked"
  • I'm not going to weigh in on the pros and cons of implants, of which much can be said. Though I just wanted to point out something that doesn't get mentioned much. It's that once you get implants you will probably need to have them replaced in 10~15 years. Although in theory they will last a lifetime, your carrying a…
  • Nope.. don't believe in it. However, having said that... if your serious about permanent weight loss and healthier living. You would eat properly, exercise, and take your time loosing the excess.
  • A dating website - as many have mentioned. If you want to go old school, then any place that is predominantly frequented by men is good (eg. yes, such as pubs/clubs, but go to a good upmarket one). Another tip is to have something to allow an easy opener for a conversation... * A pet dog = so what's his/her name? * Reading…
  • I think the Paleo Diet has a lot of merit. However, I think it's very hard to follow, and I don't think you really need a drastic reduction carbs to get the benefit. Personally i'm just focusing on eating healthy whole foods. Avoiding carbs where possible. Making veg & meat my staple.
  • Meh. It's all fashion. In times gone by when food was not as cheap and plentiful, a few extra was not a bad look... *warning: nude art* http://the-extender.blogspot.com/2011/07/voluptuous-nudes-of-norman-lindsay.html Also, some may not have noticed, but the male gay "look" to have was thin and slender (ie. feminine). That…
  • Loosing some weight before traveling to the USA? ... good plan!
  • Probably want to work on your base health first, with walking outside and basic aerobics at home. Don't be afraid to go outside! Never really cared much what people think of me myself.
  • Sydney Aus here too. A two week cruise took me to New Zealand, but also brought me here. You know what I mean. Only vacation I lost weight was in eastern europe. Between lugging around a backpack and with most people not being able to speak much english, it was hard to eat well. One place there was plenty to eat was my…
  • There are ways to block ads. Easiest would be to use a browser plugin. There are other ways though.
  • Australia east coast is 18 hours ahead as well. So now... L.A. 3:20 AM = Sydney 10:20 PM
  • I had all mine removed. Is your dentist doing all 4? ... since I had one side then the other done. That way i was sort-of able to chew a little on one side with much care.
  • But they are so unpretentious and authentic.
  • My favorites from a local-ish pizza parlor... Napoli Double tomato sauce, double cheese, anchovies, marinated olives, roasted garlic and basil The Giant A mixture of royal prawns, calamari rings, mussels, baby octopus all marinated with roasted garlic, parsley layered on a tomato sauce and cheese base served with a wedge…
  • Yeah, same here. Terribly wet and cold winter though. Damn you La Nina! *shakes fist in air*
  • Another software engineer here. However, lets be honest, calling ourselves engineers is a bit like economists calling themselves scientists.
  • * Salt (i'm not joking)
  • I have an Android phone (HTC Desire HD) and an iPad 2. Love them both. Gives me access to both app stores. I can also wi-fi tether my iPad to my phone so I can access the internet on its 3G connection. Both platforms have good points and bad points, and from what I have heard, Windows Phone 7 with its novel Metro interface…
  • Here's one way of looking at it... Length of time of modern humans (since mid-Paleolithic) || Length of time of agriculture, with high availability of grains/carbs || Note that I don't think that carbs are evil. Just that modern diets where grain based foods are treated as a staple (bottom of the food pyramid!) is just…
  • Looks like your eating a lot of low calorie diet-type food there. Why not eat more calorie-dense food... if your working out like an athlete, then eat like one! Or just eat less if your not hungry. Three healthy nutrient rich meals a day is fine. No snacks needed.
  • Yep.. Sydney here. Currently watching food stands being setup in Hyde Park for the Sydney Festival as I walk home from work. :ohwell:
