My wife dropped her weight very quickly after having twins - and looked awesome pretty quickly. So much so, I actually saw two neighbourhood women with identical-aged babies (but different bodies) gawk and then say "did you see that bi*ch" when they thought we were out of earshot. Every person has a different body to…

Well, the guy you're with is also unattainable ... You're not looking for perfect - just some reasonable facsimile of a stable, loving, caring, communicating adult male.

In a word: yikes. Don't take me the wrong way when I say "why buy the cow when you get the milk for free?" I mean this in a few ways: - he pays no rent - he doesn't lift a finger - he's got a great girlfriend - he's never going to have kids (which are a lot of work too) He has the perfect life ... why would he spoil it by…

Um, you did notice that "fat" and "muscle" were in quotes, right? Perhaps I should have put the word "convert" into quotes instead. Yeah, I could have used "replace". You know from the way the sentence was written that I was in no way suggesting that you can directly CONVERT fat to muscle, as does everyone else.

My opinion only ... Focus primarily on cardio, but SOME strength - after all, converting some "fat" to "muscle" in addition the the straight calorie burn is key 1) Continue your daily walking, it's doing more than most people give credit for 2) If you're doing two days of cardio, the third day can be a nice mix of strength…

I've had a crappy cold for the last 2 days. Fortunately, Tuesday was an off-day from my workout, and I really didn't *feel* like working out yesterday. I changed into my workout clothes at about 8:45 ... didn't actually workout until about 10:30. Can't say it was one of my best workouts overall, but still burned about…

The same people who trash walking as exercise are the same morons who will trash you for bench-pressing 80lbs instead of 250lbs, or for doing Zumba on your XBox 360 at home instead of in a Zumba class. Doing "add-ons" to walking just makes sense - build muscle, etc while doing another simple activity just makes sense. The…

I drink coffee (black) in the AM and one Coke at lunch. Years ago I used to drink Diet Coke, but then I found out that Aspartame was going to kill me faster than obesity ever would (not that I'm obese). Caffeine IS an addiction - anyone who has had withdrawal headaches (like many in this thread) know that. In many cases,…

Any website that has "social" features will end up with people using those features to: - flirt - flame - brag - sell something - show off body parts If approached in a way you don't want, ignore it and focus on why you're here.

I'm one of the people that you'll all hate ... that's because my current goal is to *gain* weight, not to lose it. That said, the goal is to gain it *properly*. I'm 45, 5'8" and "thin-boned" - I'm also not genetically predisposed to hulking muscles (which, by the way, is a good thing to a degree). I have been 145lb most of…

I'm one of the strange ones who is trying to gain weight :smile:
