Listen to your husband. he was lonely. thats what guys do when they're lonely. You've mentioned you both work away alot. maybe thats the issue. Guys look at porn when theyr'e lonely and bored, its just what they do. sounds like you're going into counselling sessions etc and he says what he thinks you want to hear. I think…

I don't know why we are told to do it that way. Seems just as easy to set your calories to maintenance and then whatever exercise you do is the deficit needed to lose weight. That way it works the way we are taught to think and we have an incentive to work out.

I understand too and I think people can be pretty unforgiving on this website. I'm a full time worker full time mum with husband away, we have the ballet classes (hers not mine!) and birthday parties in the weekend, house to clean blah blah. I've been working out about 5 x a week and am knackered. yes you can make it a…

I think that link is so smart *kitten*. Yes obviously you are not eating at deficit if you're not losing weight - everyone knows that. What they're trying to figure out is WHY. Because they absolutely can't stomach the idea of eating less again . And they train 5 x a week so simply don't have the time to train more. I'm in…

She's not just talking about two people. There are THREE involved. And the littlest most important person is the one thats going to hurt the most so ....

You can't make a important decision like getting married with doubts in your head, which you clearly have otherwise you wouldn't have started this topic. Its not fair to him and its not fair to you. You are way way too young to settle just cos he's quite a nice guy. but hey - give him a chance. If the relationship is in…

This is terrible! Its a Non Life let a lone a non relationship. The big red flag in here is the lack of sex. Maybe you're mates but thats not enough for a marriage. For two young people to not be bothered with sex is pretty bad if you ask me. He sounds so apathetic about your together he's almost dead! Forever is going to…

I'd talk to other parents and see what they think - perhaps you can even unite and ruin the party by getting loads of the kids not to go. But peer pressure being what it is I'd let my daughter go if everyone else is, no point making a stand on your own - sadly life is like this anyway . But I'd make it clear to her that…

well yeah! here we are slaving away doing Jillian Michaels DVD's and Jamie Eason Live Fit thinking, hey , if we do what they do we might look a bit like them. And then, whoops, they do a bit more than just the DVD's. I do feel like my cherry's been popped. Totally!!!! :) Like all drug users the main line was "everybody's…

She's not, but she is miffed as she only came 4th in a non tested event, hence her exploration of the whole scene which although it was a shockingly poor documentary did make one think. A bit disappointing to think many of our body ideals probably got quite a lot of help along the way. Hadn't really thought about it in a…

its a great question also how long? 2 years of weights? 1 year?

I'm 5.31/2 and I feel anything around 130 lbs (or 60 kgs which how I think in) is fine for a smallish woman). I could go lower but I feel it would be fleeting and would take just a blip in my eating to go up again. Once I go over 140 I go from looking slim and healthy to looking chubby. anything in between I am happy with…

I just watched Behind The Candelabra. That one was sad, brilliant movie.

does flax seed oil count? And dill, LOVE dill - in turkey bolognaise, on chicken, on egg white omelettes, on salmon. Yum.

a teaspoon of splenda and a tablespoon of flax seed oil. My fave meal of the day .

Nope! not that! doesnt' work. rising above and keeping the peace until you are READY to leave home is a better option.

I had really critical parents, it kind of messed with my life because when I was your age my sole ambition in life was to leave home becasue of it. Just keep focused on your goals (school, career goals) and try not to let them get to you. Unfortunately some parents think criticising is parenting, its just their way.

I think Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber should get married.

I think she is trying WAY too hard and should concentrate on having some actual talent. It has all been done before which is kind of the point. totally OLD totally lacking in subtlety and definitely not art.

I reckon squats are so good you pretty much JUST do squats and end up looking pretty hot. Its not just your legs, its your core, your abs your whole body that gets involved.

I can't stand those "fat" adds. The last thing I want to look at is fat women in magazines. And it doesn't help to encourage society to accept obesity as normal just to make people who don't want to do something about themselves feel better. There's an awful lot of very good points being made on this thread so I'm not…

I was taking the tube work one day in London and Liam Gallagher got on it. He was with some mates and wasted obviously still up from the night before. He looked straight at me grinned and winked. No one else seemed to notice. It was kind of a moment. It was really wierd as one day I saw a random music video of one of his…

I discovered Scivation Extend. Its something you drink during your workout and it works. I was so sore and then I drank it and then I wasn't so now I have it every day. You can get it on Amazon.

I'm from Auckland but I live in the Midlands in England.

We can't all be the same and I certainly wouldn't people who don't want children to somehow be forced to by public/social pressure. There are certainly plenty of people who have kids which you kind of can't help feeling maybe shouldn't have. however its impossible to know what its like to have kids until you have one,…

I love breakfast. Bowl of porridge (well oats soaked in water overnight) zapped in the microwave for 30 secs with some splenda and a dessert spoon of flax seed oil, and a 5 egg white omelette sprinkled with salt and dill. A multi vitamin and a Black Coffee.

David Bowie. My goal was to cover my entire bedroom walls. I succeeded.

arms look great! WTG! I've come to exact same conclusion I'm pretty time starved and if I have to choose I put weights over cardio every time!

personally I have tried the odd aqua robics class and although fun I don't believe they are good workouts. I'd change your routine. Personally for me weight training and moderate cardio is working perfectly. Even try doing 3 one hour brisk walks next week and see if it makes a difference. Its usually more than one thing,…

Scivation Extend is a great drink to drink it stops soreness. You sound like you are getting sore hamstrings. Do some good hamstring stretches after the workout to cool down, and maybe do a pilates or yoga class once a week to improve your flexibility. Don't stop as you will work the lactic acid out of your muscles by…
