Uh, what? These 4 are all size 16 women, and the lowest bodyfat percentage out of all of them is 34%. That's overweight I'm sorry to say.…

I like you.

This. So much this.

I must be uncool too. I've added a couple people, but when I actually tried to suggest maybe a sack of candy as a bedtime snack is counterproductive they got all butthurt and unfriended me, so I gave up.

If you are actually depressed, get that managed first. However, everyone is correct. Until you want to do it you won't. Nothing any of us can say will get you to follow the program until you want to do it. I sat on my *kitten* on got bigger for 25 years. Pressure from people got me to do something for a month or two every…

I'd be on a trip to HR to file a complaint if I was you.

Great job! Keep it up!

Hard to know without seeing your diary. Are you eating back exercise cals? Honestly in any case I'd go 4 weeks at least before I started getting too concerned about it.

I love his hat!! Tell Ed I'm praying for him!

I posted this once before. This seems like an ok place to repost it. BTW, all you lawyers, I'm just teasing. :laugh:

I like you.

Disagreement != disrespect/rudeness.

So if I say everyone should eat pennies because copper is good for you no one should call me stupid? Alrighty. This whole "never ever possibly do or say anything that might cause other people to be offended" crap is the worst idea in the history of bad ideas.

Better. If meat is murder, then murder tastes pretty darn good.

Anything that fits in my macros.

Truth. Someone will change when they've hit rock bottom and they're ready to change. Honestly, I got to the shape I'm in because everyone in my life took the easy way out and coddled me. I think a bit more brutal honesty would have served me better. That said, my obesity is my problem, my fault, and mine to fix. No one…

Way to just take a political dump all over the thread and rip on half the population. Go you.

Pick up something you like someplace else. Nothing says you both need to eat the same food.

Good on you for stating your opinion, even though you're going to get post mugged over it. A dissenting opinion never hurts.

Quoted for truth.

I had a nutritionist I saw for borderline diabetes tell me I wasn't eating enough carbs. Since I was tracking with MFP I was averaging 150g a day of carbs, but she suggested I double that. So yeah, take what they have to say with a grain of salt also.

Silly question, but if someone ate like they had weight loss surgery but didn't have it, how is that a huge problem? The surgery is likely just training wheels to help keep the patient on the lower calories/smaller meals anyway. I'm willing to bet if someone would actually eat the sleeve diet for 3 months without surgery…

A vegetarian diet doesn't mean you're not eating too many calories. Accurately track your intake.

Because you're such a brilliant special snowflake the world should be informed, nay, MUST BE INFORMED, of every thought that crosses your mind. We are lucky, no, blessed, to be granted the pearls of wisdom that percolate up from inside you. Huzzah!

I'm done being morbidly obese and will have a six pack. End of story.

Or he's mentioning it because he's trying to let her know he thinks fitter women have other problems. Ask the man out for coffee and you'll find out. :smile:

If she's enjoying her life at her age then rock on, but she's giving bad advice to an attractive young lady who's looking for someone else.

Personality ladies and gentlemen.

I'm gonna throw gasoline on the fire and explain it like this. Imagine a 1-10 scale, measuring not just looks, but the whole package. Looks, personality, job, income, social status, the works. Appearance and fitness make up a percentage of that 10 point scale. Not all of it, but some. For the sake of argument let's say…

As a man (or woman) gets older their options are more limited, so it's generally either be more flexible or be single. Pretty sure this isn't news to anyone who isn't delusional. I'm an introverted guy, so I can relate. You may have to make the first move, and make it fairly obvious. You may think you're being clear with…
