  • Oh my gosh, this thread is exactly what I need. I've been so lazy and unmotivated since starting university in October, and it's been incredibly frustrating because I only have around 6kg left to lose... time to get back on track!
  • I'm 18, so this mainly refers to guys around my age: Guys who wear their trousers around their legs - I mean seriously, I don't want to see your underwear, and you look like a baby who's dropped their nappy. Smokers/drug users - so bad for your health, why would anyone do that just to impress their friends? It's like…
  • I totally agree... and it's definitely a Western culture issue. I live in the UK, and when I was at a BMI of ~25 (going into the overweight category, and it was definitely fat, not muscle), I looked around to see that a good half of the population were my size or bigger. I have never been called "fat" here, even though I…
  • Actually, the weirdest thing as a Brit was hearing people in American TV dramas using the phrase "it's your call". Over here, we only ever say "it's your choice/decision".

There's bound to be pull-up bars and weights also.
  • Ok, so I should build up from what I can do already - thanks for the advice!
  • There are a lot of dogs near my neighbourhood, and I tend to run when a lot of dogs are having their morning walks (there are a lot of grassy fields near my house so they are usually off-leash), so I get followed and pounced on almost every time I go out to run! I'm not afraid of dogs so this is okay for me, but I can see…
  • Oops my bad, I forgot to say that I'm 18 and I work out typically 5x a week doing 30 mins of cardio each day (I vary it between running, cycling and dance). Thanks for the advice, I'll never go under 1200 calories (plus if I did, I would probably get hungry and binge...). Losing 1kg every 3 weeks is not too bad. My main…
