It's glass. You're eating glass. No, I don't recommend it.

You're right, they forgot:

LOL, glad you said it.

Yes, this.

I've been at this for a year so I'm hardly an expert, but in my experience squat form is something that I'm constantly having to tweak a bit. The start looks good to me. I do see some wobble and a shift forward in your weight at the bottom, but I'm thinking that's from the depth that you're going to and muscles that are…

Hmmm, my knees can sound like rice crispy cereal and it doesn't *necessarily* mean there's anything wrong with them. The pain afterwards could be a problem, or not. My first guess would be that as your muscles are cooling and tightening up after your workout, it's pulling some on your knee and causing pain. I would try…

Is the clicking sound and pain at any point during the lift or is it after you've finished your workout?

FYI, you're avatar is so WRONG. I like it. :smiling_imp:

Sleeping.

Pull a ringlet and watch it bounce back in to place. It's magical.

Yup. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: and :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad:…

Actually I was wondering if I could get the 80 or so flags I've gotten from friends in a GROUP removed... ETA Make that 81.

Milk! That's been processed by a cow! Just eat the grass, promise you won't absorb many calories from that.

I'm all for consumer awareness, but at some point you hit levels of precision that are simply unnecessary. The current overestimates on food labels aren't hurting anything and are likely completely washed out by fifty other inherent errors found in trying to calculate CI/CO. As for further study in the field. The field of…

So for purposes of weight loss it would be better to: a. think you eat 100 calories but actually only absorb 95 b. think you eat 100 calories and actually absorb 100 Because that's the difference the author is suggesting. More accuracy in the labels in this case would only lower the calorie amounts listed on foods. I'm…

And that difference is a. probably statistically insignificant and b. made completely irrelevant for the purposes of calorie counting by this line which was conveniently tucked in to the end of the article: Food labels ignore the costs of the digestive process – losses to bacteria and energy spent digesting. The costs are…

Would NOT punch in face. I might cry though.

Why you make my brain hurt?!

If sarcasm is bullying then I'm a bully with every single one of my students. oh... wait...

Ahem, dislocation of the pubic symphysis. Just suggesting because your exact situation sounds oddly familiar...... The good news is, once popped back in to place the worst of the pain stops pretty much immediately and you should have a good shot at healing up enough to run this spring. And a good PT can do it without the…

Before we get ahead of ourselves with what it could be, lets eliminate the simplest and most common causes first. OP, from your profile, you've been dieting for a year and have lost 120lbs. meaning you've been averaging a loss rate of about 10lbs/month. Now, when you still had 200lbs to lose, that was probably a reasonable…

Thoughts off the top of my head since you haven't given people much to go on.... most common reasons I've seen here for hair thinning; not eating enough period; not eating enough fats; extended periods of dieting at lower (but reasonable) calories with no maintenance breaks, underweight. My basic advice would be up to…

Yup, love food, loathe social gatherings. I'd rather eat a nice meal by myself then surrounded by a bunch of friends/colleagues. Pretty sure I'm still human though.

I'm thinking it was more the being classified as NON-HUMAN if you don't like being surrounded by people talking about a bunch of small talk nonsense while you try to enjoy your meal.

LOL, ok I admit, the Muppets stuff is actually kinda fun. But every year though.....

My mother plays the Muppet's Christmas Album every year. EVERY. YEAR.

What?! You don't like a song about a date rape in progress? :tongue: Seriously though, that song is SO WRONG.

LOL, less body mass combined with a long period of abstinence, yup, you're drunk.

I agree 100% with what you are saying in this. My concern is that many *young women (*and not so young, but it seems to be more common among young women) see the lower end of BMI as a goal. And so they start dieting to try and reach that goal. And then they start experiencing symptoms that clearly indicate something is…

And that's my point, for the case that was being made it was a chicken/egg scenario. Saying that she would have been fine at that weight if she would just "eat better" is misleading, since more then likely, "eating better" would have meant eating more, and eating more would have meant gaining weight, so ultimately, for…
