Smart woman!!!! :-)

Please get her credentials. NO.

Thigh gap smigh gap... I want the crotch heart. (I can't find a pic but I'm looking!)

:grumble: << This whole thread makes me feel like this! I was discussing lifting with a friend, and when he heard how much I squat he replied, "Whoa- that's too much for a girl." <And NOT in the wow I'm impressed kind of way. I promptly sent him a picture of my legs/a** in a bikini... and shut his BS down. FTR, I am HUGE.…

Some research indicates undesirable hormone responses in women (not sure if you're male or female), but you might want to look into that/consider it. Having said that, I've done 24/36 hour fasts (twice recently just because and quite a few times over the years on particular religious days).

I'd go on that date... (but I'm STILL not into girls).

I've recently put an age limit on my dates.. and it's a minimum. And.. I'm okay with a little gray. haha Oh- if 20 is old I'm a d*** cougar.

No (I don't swing that way)

Fat is not a state of being.. or an emotion.. or anything other than stored energy. Fat has no control over you, no bearing on who you are as a person... it's just excess stored energy. Think of yourself as the squirrel who stored a few too many nuts for winter- now use the nuts and move on. :-) You are beautiful... let…

Someone gave me some kind of expensive set from Teavana.. and I can tell you- Monkey-picked Oolong tea tastes like monkey-harvested pee. Steer clear of that one. The rest of the "Balance and Harmony" set is pretty good (my fav is the white ayurvedic chai). I love the intensity of their teas...

140 lbs or size 4/6 = boob job. I'm planning to have them done next summer. I've always had nice breasts but baby, weight gain and loss, and breastfeeding left them not quite as grand as they were, and at 25, I'm too young for that mess. So, I need to lose all the weight/flab I'm planning to lose to see what size/profile I…

Sadly? Alcohol. But... dropping it as of today. Just for March to see what changes I can see in my life as a result.

Definitely an unhealthy relationship with food... it was/is a crutch, anxiety-response, and "friend" that I turn(ed) to on a regular basis. No bueno.

You don't have to worry about it anymore. I drank allllll the beers last night. <3 hah Moderation is key- one night a week, or one beer a night- but keep in mind the effects of alcohol are beyond the calories..

Eat eggs. You don't need to spend $ on a pre-workout or intra-workout to get BCAAs. AND.... isolated/processed BCAAs all hit protein transporters at the same time- so they compete and less amino acids (branched chain amino acids) are incorporated into skeletal muscle tissue. Digestion helps the amino acids to hit the…

5'10.5, with ~30 lbs to lose... But I'm more focused on measurements..

A**!! Oh, and I hooked up with her too.

Obviously you're interested in someone else!

http://www.nytimes.com/2013/02/24/magazine/the-extraordinary-science-of-junk-food.html?_r=0 How's this for mass production... scary stuff going on in the processing.

What about antibiotics, birth control, hormone manipulation, food science (and technology)... has anyone heard of the "fat virus" (which is a REAL thing btw)... think any of those have any contribution?

LOL at needing "fresh man meat". I second that. haha

Hah.. I don't! Or haven't.. but then again this is the first time in my adult life that I've been outside of a long-term relationship... soooo.. not hating it. Not loving the "abstinence", but not bad other than that.

This thread makes me :-). Takes the sting out of 10 months of incidental abstinence. ALMOST.

Unless you're talking about food that someone gives you- no food is "FREE" food. A calorie is a calorie.. they are all energy.. excess energy is stored regardless of source. So yes- count the calories in fruits and veggies.

Definitely look into doggie daycare/sitters... a lot of vet offices do it too- for a dog his size I think it would've been around $6/day at the office I worked at a few years ago.

1. Weighing more than once per week is considered "chronic weighing". 2. I used to weight daily- it got to the point that when the scale went up, I wanted to give up. When the scale went down, I felt like I was successful enough and slacked off. For me- the scale is a POS. haha 3. Weigh once per month, or weekly and…

Lying, manipulating, general deviousness are deal-breakers... intelligence and ability to have FUN are a must. Lack of libido, lack of interest in health and wellness, and anti-alcohol are deal-shakers (not the end of the line but definitely cause some re-evaluating).

t Condoms are shown to be 99.7% effective (if worn/used correctly) That means that assuming NO human error (good luck after that 6th margarita), for every 1000 times you have sex, you run the risk of pregnancy 3 times. Even considering the probability of conception is around 20% each month when no contraception is used…

Blood glucose doesn't drop to zero- your body intervenes before that (catabolism of liver glycogen, fatty acid conversion, etc etc) There are mechanisms in place to keep your body going in a whole heap of situations- unless something is seriously dysfunctional. Would I recommend a super low carb diet for anyone and…

When they show you who they are.. believe them!
