I hate attorneys.... the number #1 domestic need in this country is TORT REFORM.... that is more important then tax cuts, social spending, etc...
Without it, attorneys will continue to rampage and go after anyone, any company with deep pockets.... for any reason - just to rob them.
The modern day trial lawyer is like the robber barron of old- only thing worse is they work in packs like jackels, hyenas, and piranas!!

I hate this fucking lawyer...not because I give fuck one about his stupid lawsuit, but because it makes me agree with Torone.......
fuck, now I'm going to have to punch myself in the face.......fucking trial lawyer bastard........
actually lawyers are hated here in Nevada too....the malpractice rates are so high, we're losing a TON of good doctors.....but odd thing is, everyone blames the trial lawyers but no one (publicly) will say anything about the insurance companies who keep raising the rates.......I guess because they don't want their rates raised ;)
I think we need common sense reform....
I swear if someone references the McDonald's/coffee lawsuit in this thread, I'll not be responsible for my actions ;)))
Peaches, I too have been back to the law-carbs thing.... it has been tough, but down 5lbs in a week....
Keep it up girl, you can do it!!

I'm letting myself have whole grains (rice, bread) one day a week on Sunday. It's the only way I'd make it through this. And I'm eating fruit for my sugar cravings which isn't on the Atkins plan, but I had to do something I could keep up long term. For me, his proggie is too strict for all the time. If I lose it slower but keep it off, I'll be happy.
Diets and exercise. I've been running a few miles every morning. Killing my legs. Not as young as I used to be. Ugh!
Hard to keep at the diet. There's a group of us singing to the tune of a broken CD player. We'll repeat this conversation in another few months. How come all the food I like is bad for me? Damned nature. People should live 35 years and then die. We've pushed this civilization thing too far and have to pay for it with moderation. Insanity.

Well I'm about ready to see a doctor myself... cuz something must be wrong here...
Atkins: almost killed me. I felt like crap for 30 days. No ketosis, no weight loss, no nothing... except as soon as I went off the low carbs I instantaniously gained 10 pounds while trying to eat carefully... ie. no junk and no overeating...
Low Fat Healthy Boy Diet: Two weeks so far of nothing but skinless chicken or turkey, lots and lots of veggies, and fruit. No chick-fil-a, no junk etc... Started two weeks ago weighing 205, this morning weighed 205. Been working out like crazy and eating about 1500 calories a day. Nothing...

you are probably gaining muscle. if you are eating well and "working out like crazy" then it is a good thing that your weight is staying the same... it means you are building muscle. muscle tissue is about 20% more dense than fat. muscle also has memory. you quickly rebuild muscle that was lost due to reduced physical activity which adds weight fast too.

This crap is driving me NUTS!
patience + consistency = results.
be patient.
i gained about 25 pounds of fat in the last 18 months. i have really gotten very serious about my diet (how i eat) and about lifting weights and doing cardio. its frustrating if you are checking the scale everyday. the day you started lifting... you made the scale irrelevent as a measurement of anything.
I am working very hard now. i measure everything out, plan my meals, have a very intense cardio regimine and i even pay a personal trainer to push me harder than i would normally push myself and to help me go farther in terms of actual muscle fatigue.
i started taking photos of myself every week. i want to post them all when i am finished. its pretty funny... you get really annoyed because you dont see the difference when you look at yourself. but when you look at photos, you really see the difference.
Turning 49 next week. I've weight a whopping 140lbs since I was 18...goes up and down 2-3 lbs depending on amount of sex
Yeah, yeah, I'm told "high metabolism"...bull, do some work, move around, burn some calories. Trick is wake up, smile, laugh at the bullshit and go to work!@!
I'm up at 4, do the computer stuff, when daylight hits, I'm doing the gardening/landscaping thing. When I do photoshoots, its run around and turn on the hyper-energy.
Yep, I don't eat cookies, candy bars, drink soda, and stay away from greasy foods...never liked any of that junk. Still, I drink beer, smoke cigs, and the real secret is enjoy life, enjoy some kind of physical projects/hobbies, adventures.
For me, it's fix the place up, have fun with the photoshoots and sex! All of them are better than any health club or diet plan.
Advice: quit counting calories...be sensible. Forget the gym...you'll flake out anyway...enjoy life, get some energetic hobbies and LIVE!!!
hahaha Peaches! Sorry though, I don't subscribe to that theory... There are plenty of people in their mid-thirties in professional sports and doing Ironman Triathalons. They aren't falling apart and neither am I.

That is quite true. One of the things I have been able to do is work out consistently and I am finally getting my diet to where it's consitent as well. It's a little frustrating hitting a plateu right out of the gate, but the bottom line is that I feel much better already. I'm never stuffing myself, not popping Rolaids like they were candy anymore, and I just feel better. Hopefully it will come with time...

Yeah, yeah, yeah PhotoGregg... My heart bleeds. haha Just kidding...
My dad was one of those people who weighed 145 pounds his whole life. And he LOVED to eat. Stuffed his face every chance he got and couldn't put on a pound. People like that piss me off... hahaha
I've got hobbies, and one of them is landscaping. Talk about getting outside, last weekend I had five yards of topsoild delivered and I spread it on the lawn with just me, my wheel barrow, and a shovel. Neighbors kept stopping and telling me to take a break. LMAO
Anywho, I'm off to watch 24. Hopefully I will start a "Fucking Fat VooMan" thread in the coming weeks to tell ya'll about my wonderful progress. As if you're interested. haha

i recieved that pic about a month ago.
its my cousin.
he's only 19.
it caused me to do some serious reflecting on my health, my body and how i want to live my life. i used to give him a hard time because he put being in the gym/diet as a number 1 priority over everything. after thinking about all the times i stopped and started lifting weights in the last few years - then seeing his progress, i realize why it is important to prioritize, to be determined, to patient and to be consistent.
