(Least) favorite perennial post?
All, Do you have a favorite or least favorite perennial post? You know, those posts that seem to pop up every week or month, or sometimes even every day? Keep in mind that some are positive and some are negative, so I'm not trying to say all of these suck. For purposes of this post I'm not including any of the "poster…

In need of flippant motivation
I saw another thread that said "In need of serious motivation". It made me realize that I do not benefit from external serious motivation. It crushes my soul and leaches the joy from my world. I would appreciate some motivation though. It has been a slow year with regard to reaching my fitness goals. Any and all flippant…

You know you're not fat anymore when...
I don't know the answer, so I'm hoping you can help me out. This post got me thinking: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/989593-you-know-you-re-fat-when What is the reverse? I've never not been fat. What does that look like? What does that feel like?

Where should a fat man wear his waist?
It's been a while since I asked a stupid question on the boards, so here goes. I've made a bit of progress, but I'm still not "there" yet. In the meanwhile, where do y'all think a fat man should wear his waist/belt. There are obviously variations, but the two options seem to be below the belly and approximately at the…

Good Omens by Pratchett and Gaiman
Anybody read this book? If so, have you heard of Walden Farms? Every time I hear somebody talk about that, I think of Famine's* line of food in that book. Yea verily, it hath come to pass. *Thank you naurielr for the correction!

Why are you so fat?
I remember being asked the subject question a few times by blessedly filter-less children and a couple of nitwits. I told the children that it was because I ate too much and didn't exercise enough, but I usually made a wisecrack to the *kitten* holes. I wish I'd had the map at this link…

I'm ready to loose some fatty acids...
out of my adipocytes and into my blood stream! So I can burn them! BURN THEM DOWN TO THE GROUND! Who's with me?! {shakes pitchfork & torch and starts marching toward Castle Fat} Dear grammar pedants, this may be an unconventional usage of the uncommon verb loose, but it is grammatically correct.

Aren't smart people awesome?
Hi guys! I just wanted to start a positive thread about something, and I was reminded recently of how awesome smart people are. Let's go in chronological order: I might not have survived birth and childhood if not for the smart people who have developed medicine! I might have had to dig ditches for a living (nttawwt, but…

Is breakfast overrated?
It's been at least a week since breakfast has been seriously debated here. In forum time, that's almost 17 months! Let me preface this with something. If you like breakfast, then please continue eating it. Do NOT let some schmuck (me) on the internet tell you what to do. I'm a hypocrite and I usually eat breakfast too. IF,…

Working out after deep tissue massage?
Any thoughts about working out after a deep tissue massage? After the massage, I felt like somebody had beat the crap outta me, so I was wondering if a workout might be contraindicated. It's too late for this time - I already worked out, but now I'm wondering for the next time.

How do you lick?
So I'm planning on doing some licking in the near future & I'm interested in different perspectives/techniques/strategies. Personally, I'm a fan of the change up. Start out with the lingual surface broad and flat with some significant pressure, followed by stiffening & lengthening the tongue for proper access to the little…

"Stan" remover
Has anybody else seen the ad on this site for Tide Pods with "STAN" remover? What do they have against guys named Stan? Maybe I'm the only one who sees it because they know I'm so dirty.

Priorities' effect on health aka "It's all about me!"
The Jesus Christ thread, may it rest in peace, got me thinking about priorities. I found that it was only after I gained an appreciation for myself and made ME my top priority :heart: that I was able to achieve greater health. Has this been your experience? If not, how does putting others before yourself help you get…

Getting healthy is like...
For me, getting healthy is like running away from a zombie -Slow and steady wins the day. Sprinting (I mean metaphorically - I like real sprinting) just tires you out and slows you down in the long run. -If you stop for too long, it catches up with you. -You can't ever let down your guard - there could be a donut er... I…

Tall Women
Dear tall women, You are admired and appreciated. That is all. (even the ones who are taller than me* - After all, who doesn't enjoy a little mountain climbing?) I'm going to define tall as 5'10" and up, but feel free to self-define. *Assuming I meet the minimum height requirements. "You must be this tall to ride this ride"
