730 ish now. But the bummer is when I moved to America a decade ago, the credit I'd spent a decade amassing in England didn't carry over so I had to start out like a frikkin broke uni student again.

Whenever anyone calls me something like that I just think "how observant of them" and carry on.

The lesson I take from this: a sentiment, no matter how agreeable, is best expressed in as few words as possible.

Climbing! Srsly, find an indoor climbing wall that offers affordable membership. Climbing has got to be the most total all round exercise that exists, and your back will be ripped in no time.

Chilis is pretty bad yeah. Cheesecake Factory is probably the worst, they manage to hide massive amounts of cals in dishes that look and taste reasonably healthy. I'm always wary of chain restaurant nutrition facts anyway. I'm not sure what governing body regulates or fact-checks them but I bet they're wrong most of the…

Friend them and then continually post food porn pics on their feed. Things like a plate full of delicious sizzling bacon or a cilantro decorated chicken korma. They'll either unfriend you or improve. Either way you win.

The logging part takes me 1 minute each day. The socializing part, weeeellll that's a different story...

1) pull into driveway 2) enter house 3) *kitten*

There's an old Buddhist metaphor that says if you come across an animal with a stick caught in its throat, you should yank it out, even though the animal may bleed and bite you because of it. Support doesn't only mean dishing out empty wtg's. It means calling people out on their own bullcrap too.

BMI isn't a great measure but unless you're willing to pay to get bodyfat percentages measured then it's as good as any. Personally I aim for the upper range of the BMI recommendation for my height and weight. I think the mid-lower ranges are ridiculously low for just about anyone.

If your BMR really is 1200 then your non-exercise TDEE is probably somewhere around 1440. Knock 15% off that for steady weight loss = Eat at right around 1200. Your problem is probably twofold - 1) you're very close to healthy weight already so any weight loss will be slow and difficult. 2) Since 15% off your TDEE is only…

Breathing... breathing is also important for losing weight...

Those are just poi heads that have grown their own handles.

I predict that because I have no interest in the superbowl I will get to spend the afternoon with all my incredibly attractive girl friends who are bored and annoyed with their SO's. I win.

It's not strictly the sugar that will get him, it's the total carbs. Carbohydrate in your diet is broken down into glucose and enters the bloodstream at varying speeds depending on all sorts of things like the amount of fat and fiber it was consumed with. Your DH may find his blood glucose improves more by cutting back on…

<Yoda>Too focused on scale. Madness that way lies. Understand big picture you do not</yoda>

I agree with Brett, not only for the reason he posted but for a much larger umbrella problem with initial question. We don't live in the fifties anymore. The entire world has changed, corporate and fiscal law is vastly different, concept of wealth is vastly different, you simly can't apply or usefully compare the fifties…

Oh you just need what my wife and I have - MEGABED. It's a Twin and a Queen pushed together. (I get the twin of course). The extra space means no blankie stealing or accidental "wolverine having a bad dream about the war" impaling. If one of us has a restless night the other doesn't get affected. I get to have my firm…

I've tried a bunch of methods and the one I found works best is twofold: 1) Wait until the eggs are a few days old to HB them. The contents leech out through the porous shell over time so the contents don't press so closely inside the shell during boiling. 2) Vinegar in the water. Salt doesn't seem to do diddly, haven't…

Mil-a-joaquin here...

Sweet! *Jealous*

I'm a reformed veggie hater. The lesson I learned was if you don't like them... you're just not cooking them right.

A new restraint headboard for my bed.

HAH, I needed that this morning! Thanks! :drinker:

The more Iook into food, the more I realize that unless you are shopping purely in the meat, seafood or grocery aisles, everything is "fast" food.

I have a hard time with my balls extending past my knees. Not sure about the toes thing though.

The three biggies: Calorie surplus + High protein intake + heavy compound lifting. How you fill in the smaller details is really up to you.

Effect of green tea on weight loss - 0.0000864%* Effect of eating less calories and exercising more on weight loss - 99.99999% Don't sweat the small stuff. If you like green tea, drink it. If you don't, don't. (*Statistic totally pulled from my bottom in order to illustrate a point.)

Is there a specific reason you are avoiding egg? It's basically natures ultimate superfood.
