The great bacon The bacon king Beauty and the bacon

It's a matter of taste I guess, was watching swimming with a male friend and he was commenting in a non complimentary way about how broad the girls' shoulders were... Whilst I was thinking how I wished I had shoulders like that

Use cc instead of bcc on group emails.

My poker is getting better... Considering I only started to learn 3 weeks ago by reading Poker for Dummies.... But still I'd be wearing a lot of clothes because so would everyone else.

I haven't but I wouldn't rule it out. I have a friend who has had a stroke (in his early 40s) and sometimes comes across as very down on how he now looks. Our friendship is platonic - since long before the stroke - but I genuinely can't see why he thinks that way and repeatedly want to argue with him whenever he makes such…

I regular ate ice cream for breakfast as a student... Like once or twice a week....

My best friend at primary school telling me she didn't like me any more because I was fat. I gave up all chocolate for 3 years as a result of that comment.

Virtually all the elipticals were in use and there was one guy standing on one, not using it, wearing a shirt, cuff links and suit trousers.... Watching the tv...

Unfortunately sometimes it's inevitable, especially if they have children together, but also in circumstances like still working together. There are also relationships that died so long ago all feelings are dead. Would I feel less insecure about an ex from 10 years ago when both have been in several relationships since…

Thanks for the support everyone.

If you want bacon, eat bacon - moderation is the key not abstinence. Do strength training, but make sure you get a trainer (free with most gym inductions) to get proper form. Never give up. Those are the main things really.

"do you want to go and see Magic Mike, I hear it has some great visuals." She definitely won't think you're interested in her....

Mixed seeds - pumpkin, sunflower and sesame.

This is probably a bit basic for you if you're a serious lifter but it worked for me, so I might as well say it. I tried squatting with weights in body pump classes, terrible form couldn't get to parallel let alone below. My trainer says I have an issue with tightness in my lower legs (lunges can make me pass out) and i…

I'll definitely check it out although the swimming is also capturing my attention right now. Only thing I have tickets for is the archery.

I feel guilty, I watched the opening ceremony down the pub while eating double my daily sodium level....

I'm a size 14

Incidentally I'm by no means advanced but my strength routine at the moment (in no particular order) is: Squats - 3 sets of 18 Planks - 2 sets of 45 seconds Girly pushups - 3 sets of 10 TRX suspension rows - 3 sets of 10 Chest flies - 2 sets of 10 at 3kg Chest press - 2 sets of 10 at 22.5kg, 1 set of 10 at 25kg Sumo dead…

Once you've read up a bit, make sure you ask the gym staff for advice on using the machinery properly - any decent gym should do such an introduction free of charge and doing weights with proper form is important.

I'm not in a relationship so difficult to comment. However... I have a (platonic) male friend who has been really ill for a long period of time. He didn't answer the phone, respond to emails.... The only way I ever had a chance of him responding was text. Now he's significantly better he can send me 5-600 texts a month.…

Poker for dummies.

If your partner abuses you children, leave now. If he has no history of neglect and you are just worrying of worse case scenarios, you have to be able to trust him with both your children for a couple of hours. If not, the relationship is equally doomed for failure as do you really want to be with someone who you fear…

Probably a rowing machine. Although TRX suspension is quite tempting.

Why not do both? With the Euro Star and cheap flights it's perfectly viable.

Just looking at this is making me put on weight

I've got no problems with shorter men... As long as they don't get upset about my height. I'm only 5'7" but a previous boyfriend tried to guilt trip me out of wearing heels as it made me taller than him.

I've been avoiding buying too many new clothes as much as possible, or if I do buying stretchy ones so they will fit even if I lose more weight. I did splash out on a new pair of knee high boots yesterday as my old ones no longer fit (legs have shrunk so they are far too loose).

I've lost at that with no significant plateaus.

I'd like to do China and Japan, have even gone as far as finding a trip that does both but no chance of it happening any time soon since I'm buying a house this year and will be heavily into debt as a result.

I lost over 30lb before losing a waist size.
