no, it's not. I've just watched her video posted yesterday as a response to the whole internet craze about her. honestly, she is either a total nuts or really, really smart + brilliant when it comes to ppl manipulation. she is all into some spiritual BS and her simple response is "why I look like this? because then ppl…

actually, it's not as far as her ambitions go. I have to admit this girl had a train-wreck-effect on me yesterday - I couldn't stop looking lol. If this all is not just some brilliantly pulled out hoax, she seems to be really into travel and spirituality. And narcissism as well, but oh well lol. this picture is of course…

There's "Without makeup" album on her "facebook-y" thing. She was so pretty back in 2008: this is the last of the 'without makeup' pics, from about a year ago: she still looks OK without makeup, but I find her barby-like posing hilarious :D

@heidiberr - I'll go by your picture and say you're a vet :)

definitely not my type. I'm all for this:

don't take this the bad way, but, based on your random story, I'd say it's way more important that people learn to say 'NO!' :smile: . I don't know what did you tell him nor how bad you'r leg felt, but I'm sure he couldn't feel for himself how serious it was - meaning: it was your responsibility to protect your body, no…

you have to take Coriolis effect into consideration, otherwise you won't lose any fat!

Yes.

oh, you should've seen me today (first day), in the gym, with a trainer, trying to do that thing, it was so embarrassing, with the trainer having to hold one of my legs till I get the other one up lol, and failing miserably even with all that help! :D and I even have a gym ball at home and can balance myself on it with my…

that one! based on my HRM I can burn more calories than with P90X pliometrics in obviously much more enjoyable way (but I still do P90X, though).

I know she wouldn't listen anyway, but for the purely therapeutic purposes: M., couple of important and not so important things: 1) I don't know what to tell you about THAT PhD (and yeah, you will get one). You will not like it when you finish it and you'll find yourself only qualified to do the one thing you do not want…

for my standards your avatar is super attractive lol :)

here's the report: edit: or not...just to figure out how to post an image form photobucket edit2: finally!

I just pulled out my reports: I have problems when I eat 120g (or more) for a couple of days. My usual protein intake (since 5th of April, when I started monitoring of mfp) is 80g per day (or less; sometimes as low as 60g, but 80g most of the time) and I have no problems when I eat about that much (this is still much…

yeah, that was my greatest problem with this doctor :). I certainly did change my diet back to 25% or less once I realized what is going on (I did few 'experimental' days after that, as I said, just to confirm it is definitely high protein that's causing it). I'll get tests back on Tuesday and if it's all fine, I'll just…

the funny thing is, the only food that gives me "lactose-intolerance-like" symptoms (bloating/gasses) are some plant proteins. For example, I can't eat chickpeas and I only tried a golden peas protein supplement once and I'm not doing it again lol :D. but these things give me a different response than the ones I asked my…

ha, good to know. thanks.

It's hard to say precisely how many grams but, as I said, couple of days on ~30% protein will induce these symptoms (I even experimented with keeping proteins at 30% and varying carbs and fat just to see if it is really about proteins).

lol I noticed the same when I started looking around the intermittent fasting group :)

here is one: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19943985 in other words - it doesn't matter when you eat but how much you eat during the day. Make sure you understand the distinction between DIRECT and INDIRECT effect of meal frequency on metabolism/weight loss. Indirect effect is when someone tends to eat more during the…

'Nature' is about 'everything', that is, it publishes studies from all fields of research, not just natural sciences. (what I mean is, if the mentioned study was published in Nature that doesn't mean that only science articles on wiki were assessed).

1. debating between interent and hot showers (a consequence of a month spent in Kenya's orphanages) 2. painkillers/antibiotics/vaccines (or simply put - modern medicine) 3. portable internet devices 4. chocolate (or should that be 3?) 5. spices (whoever first thought of adding things to food just to improve the taste - I…

have I not been in Australia long enough or are they just rare in the cities? I've only seen two small spiders for a whole year I've been here. But I have a HORRIBLE "big spiders in your house/bathtub/clothes" experience from New Zealand (don't wanna think about it!!! don't wanna think about it!!!)

I have a huge crush on Charles Stross. It's those eyes, and the brain behind them, I find soooo turning on. :blushing: I did a PhD in molecular genetics and decided I actually want to make robots. So now I'm waiting to start Masters of Mechatronics. I was there in the audience for the longest male Grand Slam final in the…

I got the exactly same concern after seeing this thread :huh: I don't think that in my entire internet presence history have I once used a photo of some other person (I did have some random fungi for my avatars, but that's coz I find fungi cool, - and no, not THOSE fungi! - I'm a fungal scientist).

where did she mentione "a little while", I must have missed that :)? she only quoted an article quoting a study which is not exactly applicable to a general population and concluded that SM doesn't exaist without any explanation what she means by SM (because obviously ppl here mean very different things when they use that…

I'm sorry, but I have to ask - you read exactly how many studies about this? this is a very different thing from saying "SM does not exist" and even adding a complete misinformation that studies don't show consequences of a prolonged VLCD on human hormonal system. you see, I'm much taller than you but my BMR is 1037…

I'm starting to think that critical reading of scientific studies should be a mandatory subject in PRIMARY school and not something that only ppl in science grad schools are thought. here is my response from one other thread referring to the same study: "what if it's exactly this extremely high level of physical activity…

What REALLY happened with a starvation mode: lol now we have ppl believing that they'll go into starvation mode if they skip breakfast and, on the other side, those believing that your body does not adapt to prolonged VLCD (remember, this 'adaptation' is what you don't want)
