  • This pretty much sums up what I was thinking. Have you looked at your profile?!?! Based on your pics I thought you were late 20's, early 30's at most, you are 42 and you look better than most women my age! (I won't make a joke about being the answer to life, the universe, and everything, but ftr I was thinking it.) I would…
  • If your operational definition of Love is "a mutual long-term physical and intellectual attraction" then settling or person-hopping is probably the best you can hope for. True Love, not the emotional "I don't have any control over who I fall in love with" (because I am having an oxytocin reaction in my brain and I am a…
  • In honor of this thread I went and had pizza today after I missed lunch, that cracker thin crust is awesome, and so was the deep dish. yum yum yum!
  • If you check my diary you will see that last Sunday I went to Cici's and didn't go over my calories. All of their calorie information is on the web and I log religiously, I have made it a game now, I have a coupon for a buffet for 3.99 and I go once a week (every other week is a cheat day) and try different combinations of…
  • I am looking forward to when someone says this to me the first time. I can finally see changes in the mirror (after 50 lbs) and I am starting to lose my chubby cheeks. It seems to be making me look younger as well. I am already thinking about how I am going to reply to those people. I am thinking something along the lines…
  • I tend to micro-manage my logging, sometimes I don't finish logging until I finish my meal, other times I prelog so I know how much I will have left for the day. Today for instance I plan on going to a restaurant and I have already logged what I plan to eat. I use my calories like a daily budget, when I run out I stop…
  • Bingo, commitments are not something to just be tossed away whenever you get your feelings hurt. The only person qualified to recommend separation is a counselor, therapist, or minister who is intimately involved in the situation with an in-depth understanding of all parties involved, their history both apart and together,…
  • Of course not, if these things were represented in the conscious mind then we would realize how idiotic they are, these things are deeper than the surface. I would bet he can't tell her why he feels the way he does, or if he does give a reason then it's probably something shallow and inconsequential, most of human action…
  • Sounds like he has a dominant personality and you have a submissive one. Some guys can't handle it when their ladies start showing some backbone and it sounds to me like he is testing the waters to see how far these boundaries go. He sees a change in you and he is trying to figure out where he stands in relation to that…
  • I suppose so, I have been overweight all of my life and, since this is the first time I have experienced something like this, I assumed it was abnormal. I wonder is anyone has written a book or a blog about the changes that one's body goes through when losing weight? This would be the kind of thing that guys need to know…
  • Well, this thread took an interesting direction. From what I can tell from the answers here, what seems to be happening is: Weight-loss and exercise have improved my circulation and my hormone levels have begun to rise as a result of the increased exertion and health. As a result of that, my body is reacting like I am…
  • Ah, yea, tried that, doesn't help. Maybe for a few seconds, but it doesn't do anything long term, it always comes right back. And I find it difficult to accept that this is normal, I think I would have noticed tent-front pants walking around all day. And the tuck it down a leg thing, that just makes the 'tent' stick out…
  • Yea... sadly, and I am not joking at all, I have no idea what this means. I am part of the internet generation, I've had the internet since I was a kid, if that makes a difference.
  • No medical insurance yet, won't have any for at least another year. How do you handle it? God forbid this happens when I am at church or talking to my boss. I have never seen any other guys having this problem (and I would hope I wasn't oblivious to someone having a rock hard boner while I was talking to them) It doesn't…
  • Dear, I realize that you are new to this, and I am sorry if I offended your pride by calling you out, but before you attempt to speak authoritatively on a topic you need to come to an authoritative conclusion based on evidence. Trumpeting incomplete or inaccurate information as fact will get you called on the carpet in the…
  • Engaging the muscle fibers encourages the depletion of glycogen from the blood stream and causes a hormone response that, without which, weight-loss is incredibly difficult. I know exactly how much fat I am killing, I know my body and the science behind weight-loss well enough to predict within half a pound how much weight…
  • Also, if I am walking on a mountain circuit on the treadmill, between 5 and 15% incline for 60 minutes, it means that I am killing fat. It does not mean that I should get off the machine after 30 mins because you want to jog for 10 minutes before getting on the bike and pedaling at a snails pace. Nor does it mean that I am…
  • THIS!! I have never understood the aversion to nudity in a locker room. When I get finished showering I use the towel to dry off but you never get all of the water off and if I try and get dressed immediately after toweling off then my clothing sticks to my skin. So I leave the humid shower, walk to my locker, take care of…
  • Why did this thread die? Bump it back up!
  • Assuming that works means where we earn income, then Computers and Religion are both wrong. 5erious: Construction
  • No, he doesn't want to be in a relationship with you because he is a worthless piece of crap who deserves to be castrated and walk the streets in shame. You are beautiful, if you lived near me I would treat you like a queen, guys like that don't deserve to be with anyone let alone someone as pretty as you are.
  • I love that show as well, it's one of my favorite things to watch when I do watch TV. I have been playing a little game since I started watching it at work. I try and replace the calorie dense items they use with healthier options in my head as they make the item. often times I find myself saying "I bet I could make that…
  • I am so tired of hearing this crap. There are people with medical reasons that they do not lose weight, my aunt is one of them, I have personally verified this. I lived with her and my uncle for two months. During that time I measured and tracked all of the food she ate, I was with her 80% of the time and she had no chance…
  • If by "fixed" you mean "put down" and by "put down" you mean "struck repeatedly in the head with a hammer until dead" then yes, that would be a good idea. Since I doubt you want blood on your computer your best bet is going to be to leave him a clear path out of the house and make a really loud noise near him. Animals hate…
  • I got myself a pair of Adidas Adipure Trainers and I absolutely LOVE them. They allow your foot to move naturally and provide protection for the soles (and from having to walk around barefoot, too many germs on a gym floor for me). You can see them here:…
  • Christian, Assemblies of God by affiliation though I would suspect that I am closer to C. S. Lewis in my theology than most of my contemporaries.
  • Once you finish that one read through this one Hopefully you understand now why it is so important to eat back your exercise calories. Get back on a good diet and your body will regulate itself and you will become "regular" again. Your body is holding on to what it has now because it thinks it is starving.
  • ooops, wrong thread, sorry :P
  • You are in serious danger here! Read this entire post, it is an article written by David Greenwalt and it explains what happens in the body when you eat too few calories. The long and short of it is this, if you are eating 1500 calories a day and exercising 1000 back out then you are trying to operate on 500 calories a day…
