I am 29 and she is 28. No kids for us. Hooray DINKs!

I am adopted so I know I was a surprise.

I don't think that was the assumption. Most of my friends are late 20's and very few have kids and we were discussing why it seems that way.

I have plateaued in my weight loss and now I weigh-in every morning to see how yesterday's meals affected me. I generally weigh in the highest Monday morning and lowest Friday mornings. It shows me that what I eat specifically determines my weight.

I don't drink during the week and end up having a binge on the weekend. It's funny because you can see my weight loss chart go down and then spike every monday morning. Life it too short to not have fun as long as you are eating right.

Men’s connective tissue is formed differently to women’s, so the fat lying beneath the skin doesn’t bulge through in the same way. Male hormones dictate that fat is more likely to be laid down in the abdominals rather than the hip, thigh and bottom area. Men’s outer skin tends to be much thicker and firmer so that…

Simple: don't eat the food. We have parties and food is brought into my office constantly. Just ignore it or eat some nuts which will give you good fats and keep you full. No shame in not eating it.

The oatmeal one was perfect. She shouldn't take it down. Facts are facts, but someone might have been offended by a fact? No wonder we are such a fat country. Hell, if everything had calories on it we'd all eat better. Ever notice you eat less pizza at a work meeting than when you order one at home? The Peta body scanner…

How is this a bad thing? My dad told me I was "getting a bit chunky" and then one day I realized he only wanted the best for me. I looked in the mirror truthfully and realized I was getting fat. So for me it worked. But I'm a guy... so?

honestly. binge drink. every morning after i binge drink i weight pounds less than when i went to bed. alcohol sucks up all the water in your body.

uhh... beers?

Shoes- $120 every 8 months Iron weights - $340 HRM- $60 Treadmill- $350 used (only use in winter) P90x & P90x2 - $200 Pull up bar- $25 Fitness ball - $25 Clothes- ??? $1120 currently (plus whatever my wife buys) And then add in protein powders, blender, etc, so it goes up. But I figure that's stuff I'd buy regardless of…

when i read all that stuff it's just people making excuses. why go to college? you're good enough the way you are. why learn to ride a bike? you're good enough the way you are? why get married? you're good enough the way you are. it's just excuses and it's the reason our country is all fat. i was fat so i know all about…

i hated working out and then just kept doing it daily. i am to the point now, 2 years later, that if i don't work out 4 times per week i feel really guilty and work harder next week. it's a good feeling to know you need to work out. the first time i felt that "wow" effect you describe was when we were at a bar and a girl i…

The only thing I notice is if their pants are riding up high and giving them a wedgie!

as a man i don't understand why age matters at all? if the bride (your friend) is getting married at 40 isn't it a bit selfish to think 40 is too old to be a bridesmaid? aren't you supposed to be there for your friend?

i was under protein because i literally just "upped" it today from 90g to 190ish. and i see you are very low in carbs - think i'll try to imitate that because i have way too many carbs.

what is the road map? is that the goals section of this site?

I thought that but wondered what to eat because I don't want to get fat again. Is there something very specific I can eat (almonds, extra protein shake, etc) that will give me increased calories yet no fat?

At my heaviest I was overweight and a few pounds from obese but compared to everyone else around me i was the skinny one so they said I was skinny. 20 pounds later I am in the healthy range but still see fat to lose. people say "oh you don't need to workout". Jealousy I guess.

i just tell people i'm not hungry. no one questions that. but yeah, it seems the people who are the most unhealthy are the ones criticizing. just jealousy i guess. jealous they don't have the strength to fight through it.

pass

saw my high school graduation picture next to my wedding photo and realized how much weight i gained in just 5 years. decided to lose 15 pounds and did it in about a 8 months. now i've plateaued at about an 18 pound loss.

Although I like the beard, pass.
