Or would u wanna go out with a girl who roughly had 3 or 4?
The girl 3-4 knows what a relationship supposed to be like (she values it) whereas the one who slept with 20 doesn't have a single f*ckin clue.
the thing is, why would a girl who knows what a relationship is supposed to be like want to be with a guy who... doesn't? (ie, a guy who's slept with more than 3-4 people)

OK, all the advice given has been pretty much sound.
But let me simplify it.
1) Limit carb intake
2) Here's your goal. Start running on a treadmill. See if you can't get to the point where you can do, say, 3 miles in 30 minutes. Once you reach this point, try to do it 5 times a week. Given your stated goal, all weight training will be of secondary importance.....though don't illiminate it. You can toil away doing crunches, and curls, and squats, but they won't have the same dramatic effect as running will on lowering your body fat percentage ( which -- at 5,2 110 -- is probably already low to begin with). Leanness equals musculature.
Guaranteed results.
... the results being a really thin girl with no muscles. great. let's keep them wimpy.
if you want muscularity, you should lower body fat and add muscles. seriously, all those chicks you see with flat stomachs are just skinny... they're not fit. if they were fit, they'd have muscles. -

What about the carb-loading phase of CKD (cyclic-ketogenic diet), as in eating all carbs and protein for 36-48 hrs at the end of the week? This is supposed to replenish glycogen levels and prevent muscle mass losses, is it not?
i was considering this, but the workout schedule associated with it (intense M, T following weekend carbup, then depletion workout F) doesn't fit my needs at this time.

So, the solution would be:
1) finally decypher the human genome and its workings
2) Kill all fat people...
simple..
.. *laugh* no way will we even begin to approach figuring out the workings of gene interaction any time soon.
maybe if you bring up this argument in 1,000,000 years or so.

did you miss tastey's post? killing certain groups of people would narrow the genetic base and narrowing the genetic base could be ultimately detrimental to the species.

well, if you're going to blame obese people for insurance bills, you'd better blame smokers too, and everyone who has a "thin" eating disorder and has problems related to it, and everyone who drinks over a certain amount of alcohol and has physical/psychological problems associated with that, and all those stressed executives who get therapy for their stress... you better charge them for upping your medical bills too.
the fact is, we do things that are bad for us. either everyone should get evaluated individually and be charged individually for the "damage" they cause society, or we should try to address issues such as obesity with educational campaigns and support for those who are struggling with it.
i've thought about the idea of a "fat tax" but couldn't come up with a way to make it feasible. we couldn't up taxes on everyone with a BMI over a certain amount, cause people who carry a lot of muscle (ppl who lift weights, who are genetically prone to being muscular, etc) would be slapped with an unfair tax too. and for people who have genetic disorders that make them overweight, do we tax them too? how about people who are fat that are attempting to lose weight? do they get charged less than fat people who don't try at all? do we refuse medicare to people who are fat and make them pay their own way?

UGH!
i decided today to stop doing this low (20 grams or less) carb diet i was on the last two weeks because i am having serious lifting issues.
today was the last straw, when i did *7* total reps fewer on squats than last week!
to hell with quick weight loss... i'd rather lose fat slowly and be able to at least maintain my muscle mass than keep on having to scale back my workouts in a major way every week.
while i realize that one shouldn't expect significant gains on any diet, this no carb stuff is definitely something i wouldn't recommend to anyone who lifts heavy stuff on a regular basis.

so with a regular deadlift u bring ur ass all the way down toward the floor? eh i dont like that. it seems awfully uncomfortable
erm, yeah.. it's hard... but that's the point!
it's also somewhat similar to what you do when you squat properly; your hams should be kissing your calves. people do sissy squats (ie, thighs don't even go parallel to the floor) because they're EASIER, but not only do they give you a half-assed leg workout, they're also more stressful on the knees.

how is it any more greedy than the average Joe who wants to date around and not remain monogamous?... just because one is attracted to both genders doesn't mean one wants to have sex with EVERYONE. i'd argue that bisexual people are just as picky, on average, as heterosexual people... they just have a different, more diverse pool of potential lovers.

hey! maybe if you lose some weight you'll lose your period too! wouldn't that be great? hurrah for anorexia and eventual osteoporosis!

well, maybe your body is just not used to working 9-5 yet. it can be really exhausting mentally and physically if you sit in a chair all day long.
but anyway, if you're looking for size/strength gains, but you haven't seen any and have felt tired, i'd suggest you look at your food intake. maybe you need to up your calories.

well, we all have our theories.

you cant argue why people find things funny....they just do....just the fact that you are trying to do that undermines this mess of a response..
i'm afraid you just don't think about things on the same level as i do. i like to take things apart and look at their pieces. the fact that you don't do that when it comes to humor is okay with me. we're different people.
i think Rizzo really got to you..made you feel like shit...hence all this backlash
do some research into what rizzo said to me (if you can find it... we didn't exchange many words) and you'll be able to figure out the answer to your above theory.
if you think discussion is always backlash, then i feel for ya. :]
-
so you are saying that everyone that has ever responded to Rizzo with a
is insecure?? Hogwash!actually, i do think that anyone who laughs at jokes that make fun of other people are either reacting to their own insecure feelings, are malicious (but this often comes with insecurity) or are too dumb to realize why jokes like that AREN'T funny. what category do you think most people fall into? probably a combination of the first and the third...
I think it would be better to say that your sense of humor is just different...not more mature..not more intelligent..just differenti agree that my sense of humor is different, but i most admit that i also think it is more mature. i find it strange that you're trying to argue that laughing at other people's misfortune isn't immature, but then again we have different values and i hardly know you at all so i couldn't comment on your upbringing.
face it..and I think the more funny people of this board concur..Rizzo is one funny dude..plain and simplyobviously, this comes down to a matter of opinion that relies on your and my and those other 'funny' people's definition of humor.
rizzo is adept at coming up with various unusual insults about people's backgrounds and appearances, but that makes him neither very funny nor very smart in my book. it just makes him determined.
and like origskeemer said....anyone that takes it to heart..needs to relax...its just a messageboardand in addition to that..you need to fight your own insecurities
indeed it is a messageboard, and if people take to heart what others say about them -- especially anonymous screenname types -- then they've got some work to do on their self-esteems. people's insecurities indeed should be fought offline without the input of rizzo, you, or me.

sorry if this has been done before.
what music groups/bands/singers are you embarassed to admit you liked way back when (or way back last month)?
i would say Ace of Base is on the top of my list.
makes ya wonder how you'll feel when you're 50 when you look back at a youth during which you went going gaga over Britney or Justin Timberlake...

i agree 100%.
why is it funny to make a really nice person feel bad?
i guess it comes down to, as most people have been saying, the fact that insecure people sometimes resort to insulting other people to take their minds off their own problems. and the people that laugh along with them are participating in the same kind of exercise?...

you didnt seem to understand that 1 page ago..
hmm.. true...
to clarify, i maintain that insulting someone's appearance is never witty or intelligent, and always childish.
whether someone finds it funny reflects on his or her standards for intelligence and wit, and my statement above reflects my particular standards.

...I think it matters because the *thought* of him really does embody all that we aspire to as a society... It triggers a reaction in people automatically because, like Tastey said, what we idolize is looking down upon us and sneering at how wholly inadequate we all are in comparison to him.. Because he embodies the epitome of it all...
..which would imply that those who 1. find him funny or 2. find him insulting are people who are deeply connected to and responsive to society's standards.
others who do not care so much for culture's current standards care less for rizzo.

he insulted people's appearance in a witty, intelligent way.....comprende?? Good.
i understand that different people have different standards for what they perceive as witty and intelligent.
...which is why rizzo means something valuable to some, and not much to others...

i think the reason for it is envy and jaleousy.
he displays the confidence and arrogance many people would love to have, he has (or claims to have if he´s real) killer looks (a model), money and fame.
he reminds people on who they´d love to be if they could. if someone you admire speaks down to you and insults you, you´re admiration turns to hate pretty hard
...except the fact that most people don't actually believe he's a 'real life model'. so that theory doesn't hold unless you believe that he's who he says he is and are envious of that lifestyle.
as for his 'sharp insults'... since when is insulting someone's appearance witty or intelligent? i would argue that it is the least effective and most childish form of insult -- if you consider insults to have any worth whatsoever.
-
hmm...
initially, i reacted to rizzo's insults because i don't think that people who insult others should be allowed to do so without some comment on their behavior. however, upon realizing that rizzo's entire character exists purely in order to hurl insults upon others and could not be reasoned with, i stopped caring because i knew that nothing i could say to him would cause him to stop behaving as he does. rizzo is like a computer program with only one function, so there's no point in attempting to interact with him.

it's funny how people will ask for advice and then act like they don't wanna hear it after all.
*muses*
anyway, if you know in your heart of hearts that you really care for this man and want to stay with him, i would advise not telling him. if it's on your mind a lot, you might want to talk to a counselor about it before deciding to bring it up with your boyfriend. telling him about it before you've made peace with yourself is not going to make it easier. you're feeling guilty, which is natural, but i'm just not sure that telling him what happened is going to make you feel better... especially if he breaks up with you for it.
people make bad mistakes, but it's not always the case that they need to be 'punished' for their mistakes years later.
*edit* re-reading the first post, i see that it hasn't been 'years' since you had your little mishaps. it was actually like two months ago. i find it interesting that you've managed to fall in love with this guy right after you cheated on him. are you sure you're ready for a relationship?
if you want muscularity, you should lower body fat and add muscles. seriously, all those chicks you see with flat stomachs are just skinny... they're not fit. if they were fit, they'd have muscles.

is insecure?? Hogwash!
