I don't know what visceral fat percentage means. I'm 6 ft. tall (exactly), weigh 170 lbs.. I work out a lot, eat a very healthy diet and have no visible body fat. My BP stays around 117 over 70 something to 80 and my resting heart rate is 68 - 70 bpm. I'm also never sick (other than allergies).

by love2Bworldly inanyone read the "fat girl's guide to life"?
i am reading it right now and finding it pretty interesting.
it makes me think outside the box a little bit about how much money is spent on products for people to lose weight, and how much money saturates the market and influences so much of the media.. the author's attitude is one i try to have-- exercise, be balanced in eating habits, drink water, take nutrition supplements, and don't obsess over dieting & what the scale says or about other people's judgements toward my weight.. right now, i already know why i am overweight-- i am eating to deal with my bipolar issues.

I agree. Obesity is the real issue, not a few pounds. But more than a few carries health risks from what the latest science suggests. But, alas, I am very shallow. I prefer no visible body fat, on me or my other.

Sorry Besty but the latest studies say something different. This was in the news just a few weeks ago:
You Can’t Be Fit and Fat
By Alexandra Sifferlin @acsifferlin Dec. 02, 2013
It’s okay to be heavy, as long as you don’t have diabetes or hypertension–right? Not so fast, says the latest research.
There are always exceptions to the rule, and that’s true of health issues too. While the bulk of studies warn about the dangers — to the heart, liver, kidneys and other body systems — of gaining weight, a small number of trials suggested that some overweight or obese individuals may be as healthy as their normal weight counterparts, since they had normal blood pressure, no diabetes and relatively stable cholesterol levels. In fact, one study found that overweight individuals (but not obese people) tended to live longer than those of normal weight.
But in a comprehensive review of studies dating back to the 1950s, scientists contradict that idea, with evidence that it’s not possible to be both overweight and healthy.

You say fake tan, fake eye lashes and slut suit like those are bad things. ;-). Just kidding. What about fake boobs? Those are some of my favorite things. Not kidding. Otherwise, I'm a guy and I won't comment about a weight gain/loss issue originated by a woman in a milliion years. I notice that almost no other men have either. See, we are not all stupid.

Is my mind still controlled???.....Is yours????
by KateWild inwe are all set for a lovely xmas week and nice holiday, but this image is indellably printed in my brain and i cannot erase it.. .
it's from the bible teach book, chapter 16 para 11. i did that many bible studies and trained them how we need to make a stand for true worship and not ever return to pagan practices.. so now over this season of good will, and fun i have a literal bitter taste.. are you having flash backs?
how can we remove these images from our brain?

Kate,
I say the same thing in your post about sex. LOSE the JW language ASAP and the rest will be much easier. Think about all of the JW specific terms we were indoctrinated with - 'the truth,' 'apostate,' 'immoral,' etc. If you stop using words like that and replace them with more accurate adjectives and nouns, you will find it much easier to leave the control behind.

Yeah, me too. When I was appointed an elder is when the wheels started coming off. Getting closer to the core of the apple revealed the rottenness of the apple.

Duck Watchtowercy
by Defianttruth inwith phil robertson getting the boot within a day of his comments by a&e, what would happen if the lbg community started calling all of the venue managers of their convention arenas and exposing them for the hate group they are today?

When you espouse your religious 'convictions' (another word in this instance for hatred, intolerance and bigotry) within your domicile or the domiciles of your brethren (I think they call those churces), nobody really gives a rip. When you take it out on the street, and that street is populated with all sorts of different people, many of which help to pay your salary and make you quasi-famous, and then rant about those you find abhorrent, don't be surprised when there is pushback. This hasn't anything to do with his religion or his 'christianity.'

The network for which he works and which pays him and his family well I imagine for being their redneck selfs has every right to expect the 'stars' of the show to NOT offend viewers, and to keep personal viewpoints to themselves. Certainly the patriarch had every 'right' to say what he said. He isn't in jail; he isn't being arrested or flogged or denied any civil rights. His EMPLOYER, who has a compelling reason to have their employees watch what they say (ratings, money, paychecks, etc.), has merely disciplined him for those comments.
As for Rattigan: it is about hate; stop fooling yourself. It's just like the DD patriarch saying he wasn't judging people he just lumped with terrorists and that god would take care of them. You are preaching hate as well. Open your mind; I am assuming you left the Borg. Keep moving away from it. You will like yourself a lot more when you lose the anger, hatred, judgmental attitudes about that which YOU personally think is offensive. Or that you based on what you have been taught or that appears in a book written by old men thousands of years ago. You have freedom of speech on this forum; but I think you are full of hate and bigotry. But attitudes like yours are changing. Fairly quickly. Let it come. And you and those like you (dead men walking) will be viewed as neanderthals a generation from now.
