600 pound woman dies

Son Goku - I broke this rule myself and it did the same to me; people under the age of probably about 21 - 23 shouldn't do any length of serious weightlifting. The adrenaline and other chemicals within the system cause you to get a growth stunt.

To be sure, there's a balance... One thing for peeps to note though, if one has enough muscle mass, muscle weighs more then fat (so base it on conditions/fitness, not the scale so much), and muscle burns calories even while one isn't using them (basic metabolic activity to keep the cells alive). I'm not one for diets though, period; and have personally studied my food as much as I would almost care to in several semesters of college level biology and what not

Also, there's a matter of nutrients. People in Africa can look heavy, and yet live in countries where there isnt much food to begin with. In there case, it's a protein dificiency.

In the case of (football players for instance), they do eat a lot...though many of them are built up to lift a lot more then 150 lbs or so (my brother isn't one but used to bench like 350 lbs...) and also get a lot of activity both on the field and in practice...

Activity might not make one immediately hungry though, if one becomes completely exhausted... One might be too tired to eat. That happened to me when I hiked up this trail, after mostly resting (from the previous school semester). There was then over a mile to the tram, and about 2.5 miles from where it came down to the trail head (where parked).

I made it though, and saw to it

People don't needs diets. They need exercise! They need to pry there asses off the coutch, or get away from the comp for a hour, set down the bag of chips and go for a walk, run, etc.

Right on, brother man. I must say, I'm 5'7" and not sure what I'm weighing in at now, but I'm running a 38" waist. I hate it, need to get back to the gym. Been unemployed for too long. Previously, I worked landscaping and worked out quite a bit (I'm actually a gym addict). Normally run a 34" waist, 155lbs.

4' 9"

Mmmmm, my kind of woman....

You're really not gonna believe this, but she uses that exact term all the time! Maybe you 2 were separated at birth or something?

Haha my long lost twin perhaps?
I like being small so you can all say what you like about me,I don't care My hubby's 6' and we always get called Little and Large

I've always thought shorter girls were cute. I went out with a lot of shorter girls and many times it's an attraction more than anything.

 

[Unleashed]

I agree Vern, there is just something about small women. None of my friends agree though - they all like the tall ones.

600 lbs, so how many Iowa units is that?
