I am a lot more interested in the statistic where over 95% of diets fail than the rest of the fat discrimination thread.
This is a very interesting statistic to me.
I would love to see some hard science on the percentages of people who are actually able to flip their life around in other areas too. Poor to rich, sad to happy, that sort of thing.
I read some Sex Astrology thing with her (at Border's, and somehow it was not weird at all) and it was surprisingly accurate
well, at least I think it is. it is how I see it being now, I guess
The entire purpose of any kind of astrology (or tarot or energy reading or whatever other mysticy crap) is to appear surprisingly accurate. I am unsurprised.
I feel sort of bad about using the approach I am in the PC thread.
But god damn its nice to be on the other end of it for once.

Winky, you've made elaborate plans for 2011, and are determined to complete them all. There could, however, be last-minute changes that need to be made. Don't be too inflexible. Go with the flow.
You're an upbeat person, and no matter what happens, you do your best to make the most of it - especially when it comes to acquiring knowledge. You'll learn more in the first few months than you did in all of 2010. Don't push yourself too hard, however. There's no hurry. Don't forget to take time out to relax and enjoy life.
You enjoy getting out and meeting new people, and there are very few whom you consider your soul mates. It's easier for you to make casual friends, and you are kind to even your difficult relatives.
This year, you just might find more close companions than you ever did before. Learn from them. Get to know them well. Enjoy!

I remember when I really wanted to try to learn cold reading.
They abandon the diet before they reach their target weight?
Makes sense for diets with target weights. But, thinking of my brother's diet for instance (which he's lost a good amount of weight on) his stated goal was just "eat less carbs."

I like Rob Brezsny a lot, not because I think the stars are guiding him to wisdom, but because I find him a simple joy to read.

every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

That's a good goal.
A lot of people don't have goals that reasonable.

My goals are "eat less in general and up my exercise".
Working so far.

I have a message from a female relation of yours. She says don't worry about the money.
people can't make that lifestyle adjustment, even for 6 weeks
Even then, weight loss shouldn't be the goal. Improved health should be the goal. Weight loss will probably come along with it, but that's a nice side effect.

And people ask me how I lost this weight; more work and less food on the plate man, just a simple plan with a little bit of self discipline

This was similar to the diet I went on in which I managed to lose a good deal of weight. Only instead I was like "eat fewer calories".
Of course, that statistic could have to do with the fact that the majority of diets are bullshit (and in my opinion the majority of nutritionists too). I just have long thought that lifestyle inertia is a much greater force than anyone gives it credit for.
I've been able to deduce that my sword is between 1 and 2 pounds, but can refine this knowledge no further due to a lack of a precise scale between that range.

Yeah, in my personal experience with weight loss, the best advice I can give is to just get over being hungry. "Oh no I'm hungry!" "Well deal with it pussy, it's like the least inconveniencing discomfort you can have."

Sir how dare you imply that I wield some kind of barbaric cleaving sword, rapiers at dusk.

the "no true scotch man" fallacy.
because we frame them as being temporary when a diet is not temporary, it's permanent
Well, I guess it depends of what you're going to do with it. If it's just email, word, and internet, you can get away with... wait a minute.
That's a good goal.

That was awkward. I didn't know how to set my face to avoid looking tremendously disappointed.
that's nothing like me
Well for colds there really isn't a good medical solution other then bed rest. So homeopathy isn't like the devil there, its all folk remedy bullshit.
